I gave Optus the boot with my 4 joint services after having too many spurious roaming activations (and the $5 charges) while data roaming was off and not making/receiving calls or sending a text.i booted Vodafone and went with Optus; as a new customer i get the same for about $10-15 less (need to check on this) and will edit the post later and get the same $5/24hrs roaming but it is 5GB per 24hrs which I am quite happy with.
Was lightning fast and had no blackouts on my recent 18 day travel. Unlike holafly which works and sometimes doesn't; gives me blackouts etc.
It could be cleaned up via time consuming app chat but only by having the $5 charges credited to account for the next monthly bill; unlike the instantaneous ping on my CC.
I went to Amaysim for less then half the Optus monthly cost and a single $20 add on for 90 minutes of calls and 100 sent SMS is still going after 9 months and about 6 weeks of travel.
