No caps – Vodafone’s Infinite Plans
In the era of ubiquitous mobile phone use, mobile phone carriers are constantly competing to provide their customers with the most price effective phone plans. Over the years as our needs and uses of mobile phones have changed, so too have phone plans and contract deals between user and operator. Phone plans differ between pre and post paid deals. Under post-paid plans, users pay for what they use with specified call and data rates, or sign up to a capped plan, under which a fixed amount is paid each month for a certain amount of call and data.
Vodafone’s new Infinite Plans are the latest post-paid plan option available to mobile phone users in Australia.
– What are Vodafone Infinite plans? As the name suggests, Vodafone’s Infinite plans give customer access to infinite calls, texts and social media outlets for a fixed monthly payment. There are different monthly payments to choose from that differ in terms of data limits and the amount of money used for international calls and voicemail access.
– How much are Vodafone Infinite plans? Vodafone Infinite plans are offered in $45, $65, $85 and $100 increments. Here’s a run-down on what you get for the different options.
* $45 Infinite Plan: Unlimited calls, texts and access to social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. 1GB of data, and $45 to spend on calling 13/1800 numbers and accessing voicemail. No international calls can be made on the $45 Infinite plan.
* $65/$85 Infinite Plan: Unlimited call, texts and social network access. 2GB and 3GB of data respectively, and $65/$85 to be spent monthly on 13/1800 calls, international calls and voicemail access.
* $100 Infinite Plan: Unlimited calls, texts and access to social networks. 4GB of data, and $100 to be used on international calls, and unlimited 13/1800 numbers calls and voicemail.
– What benefits do you get on Infinite Plans? The obvious benefit of Infinite Plans is that you won’t ever have to worry about running out of phone credit to call friends and family. Furthermore, the prices of the infinite plans are very competitive compared to other phone carriers. The $45 Infinite plan, for example, offers an extremely low monthly fee for unlimited calls and texts. Due to the low usage costs, the cost of a handset can be included and the monthly payment will remain affordable. Infinite plans are a great option for those looking for competitively priced iPhone plans.
– Are there disadvantages to Infinite plans? The one pitfall of Infinite Plans is that users will be unable to use their mobile devices for tethering. Tethering refers to using your phone and its connection to wireless and data networks as a modem – usually for a personal laptop – by connecting it via a USB cord.
When compared with other Australian mobile phone plans – such as Optus plans – Vodafone’s Infinite plans represent significant value and will most likely lead the way for other mobile phone carriers to follow suit and offer unlimited call and texting options.
