Questions people ask

Is a reseller on the Telstra network as good as Telstra?

Coverage follows the same towers, so where Telstra reaches, its resellers usually do too. Differences are in price, data, speed caps, support and extras. Check a plan's Critical Information Summary for speed caps.

Why are some providers cheaper?

Resellers often skip stores and bundles and sell SIM-only plans, which tends to lower the price. Deals matter a lot in year one, so we add up every payment instead of showing a single monthly price.
