Yeah that may be true.  The actual voice call coverage is fine, it just seems that the internet part is a bit unreliable, although I think Optus may be upgrading their coverage to be as good/better than Telstra's soon, so watch out for that maybe.

I don't have any experience with other carriers sorry Laura

Evening gentlemen & Laura,

Exams. Done. Both were pretty good, tbh.

Lol, but doesn't one get a stupid amount of credit when on a plan? I get heaps on my iPhone.. and it's only a middle range plan (as of last year) with Optus.

I cant imagine Melbourne lacking coverage though... Its probably because you're in SA, esky. lol.
Ha.

It's not so much the lack of coverage, it's more the inconsistency. Simply, when I get signal, I get strong signal. Any other time it's either dropped out completely, fallen back to EDGE, on fucking roaming or flailing above my head as I try to regain a bar's worth of signal.

It's more than likely the handset's fault; but this is my second, and the problems are still lingering if not getting worse.

gtfo telstra, srsly

Thats what Ive got, but it lasts 6 months. (time period that is. Realistically, it lasts about 3 weeks)
25 cents per text blows, hard.

Nice work minty. How long are your holidays?

Perhaps try a cap plan or alike?  It's like $40 a month or something but you get more than what you pay for, something like $200 worth of calls and sms I think?

Oh..

I pay 49 bucks for the cap thing, and get 300 bucks to anyone, then 350 additional to Optus people (which I can't use until the other is gone.. which is fucking stupid). It's then another 30 or so for the phone and handset insurance..

Collectively, I worry more about the lack of functional signal with my Telstra phone. Telstra's arsesified prices just contribute to the reasoning of me leaving to another provider.

You're asking if flecco was shocked when a guy with "I <3 Tazz", a unicorn, a rainbow and a pink & fluro green helicopter in his sig sent a photo of flecco to fleccos phone?

No he was perfectly comfortable with it.
