Switching to iiNet
- Check your phone is unlocked and works on the Vodafone network, because iiNet uses it. Look at the coverage map for the places you live and work.
- Keep your number: ask iiNet to move it when you sign up, and don't cancel your old plan first. Your old provider texts a code to confirm, and the move is usually done the same day.
- Pay up front: it's prepaid, so you recharge before you start. The smallest first payment is $15 (iiNet 30GB), then $30 a month.
- None of the 3 iiNet plans we track has a lock-in contract, so you can leave without a fee.
- eSIM (no plastic SIM) is listed on 3 of 3 plans, so you can switch on the spot with a compatible phone.
- Our data says that if your data runs out it stops until the next recharge or month, with no extra charge.
- Deal prices are for new services only. Moving your number to this provider counts as new, but check the terms on the plan page.
