Alright so I'm back in the country and have to chose a phone/network. Has any of this changed other then the Voda/Three hookup. Chick in the shop today was telling me they are now going to teaming up with Optus to bring their coverage up to 96% of the population.

I'm still feeling that you're not getting much bang for your bucks from Telstra plans, any suggestions? Still trying to see if there is a phone that will grab me more then the Desire Z I already have.

Last time I looked, Optus was more expensive than Telstra on certain plans. I don't know why anyone would chose another carrier. Unless your 15 yrs old and $5 makes a life difference, even if Telstra costs you $20 a month more, a) it works, and b) it works!

Vodafone have been trying to sort out their coverage issues for the past two years. I remember getting an email in May 2011 saying that they had been improving their network by upgrading their sites and would continue to do so. By the time I switched to Telstra five months later it was still an absolute shocker. Their service was so bad that it frequently would drop out in the CBD.

Moved to Telstra in October 2011 and went a $59 plan with an iPhone 4S. Never regretted it, it is by far a superior service. Definitely good value for money in my case. I've done interstate trips in the car and been to many country locations with minimal drop outs.

I recommend Telstra to anyone that wants a good reliable service. I even called their customer service last week to sort out an issue and it was all sorted out very smoothly

I agree, but everything's rosy until something goes wrong, my cable went out and I had to wait a week for a tech but in the meantime I was told to go to a Telsra shop and buy a pre paid Wi Fi dongle thingy and use that, then after the tech leaves call billing and they'll refund the $149 cost back to my account.

Non of this is very professional in my book but it worked, they have to look after millons of customers and I would rather be with them than anyone else...............and my TLS shares have risen by over 10% in 2 months so that helps my attitude.

+1, i tried optus and 3 while back, nothing comes close to Telstra's coverage, especially 4 data on a phone.

BUT nothing could be as BAD as Telstra bigpond helldesk if you need help for cable internet.

Kogan are now in the market on the back of the Telstra 3G network.

They offer unlimited plan for $29 per month with 6 gig of data.

I've been using them since launch about 3  weeks. All good so far
