I’m considering switching away from Telstra to Optus for mobile – drawn by the lower prices, zero-rated data for music, and the fact that Optus isn’t Telstra. Telstra has been good over the past year, but we tend to keep to the CBD, Paddington, Ashgrove, and that kind of area; so the enhanced coverage in the middle of nowhere isn’t that useful to us. My guess is that coverage is pretty good for everyone in the city, and I’m going to buy a cheap SIM just to check coverage at home – but are there others using Optus/Virgin here, and have you spotted anything I should know about before I switch? submitted by /u/jamescridland [link] [comments]
