Prepaid??!!? Don't understand why anyone would do that anymore?

iv never been on a plan !!! dont like signing up to contracts !!!

[Soop]

I did once, biggest rip off ever!

[camoshop]

plus my phone atm isnt under may name hahah cant be tracked this way hahah

[Soop]

lol, 1c text messages vs 25c on a plan.
Calls are slightly cheap but offset but the cost of the hand set.

Plans are for people who must have the most tricky handset availible IMO and can't save up enough to buy one.

Nik,

Go the HTC,

My N8 is very good, built extremely well, unibody aluminum, fantastic camera (unbelievable for a phone)
But it is extremely frustrating and slow to use.

A bloke at work has the new HTC, just so simple to use like my old iPhone. Runs windows 7 too I think. (not android)

Is this how it fits?





But seriously, eBay radiator fits abosolutely perfectly. No dramas at all.

Filled her up a few times to get rid of all the air bubles, now there's no leaks and the fluid doesn't drop at all, which means there's no air left?

While I was at it I went to the wreckers and replaced the AC belt tensioner, works and drives like a dream now.

$59/month, unlimited calls, SMS and 3G.

Can't get much better then that. Having an ABN rocks.

Cheers,

Blue is still better

And whats the issue with pre-paid?

You pay for $69 worth of credit, you get $69 worth of credit
I pay for $69 on my plan, I get $300 to make calls with.

Virgin to virgin calls are free
All text are free

There is some international perk too but I don't use it so I wasn't paying attention...

[camoshop]

i pay $19 and get $150 worth of calls pre paid caps are the way to go

Plans are for people who must have the most tricky handset availible IMO and can't save up enough to buy one.

Plans are for people that run business accounts on multiple mobiles and are stacking some serious minutes. I will be getting $24,000 worth of phone calls over the next 12 months for $2376 with an $800 phone thrown in and my phone credit redirected to MMS usage, in that I'll also be getting 3GB/m of data. Hardly the worlds greatest deal, but if you live in the country you MUST have NextG. If you can get a better deal on NextG then you can discredit my choices, but if you're going to quote what Vodafone or similar are offering, don't bother, they do not have reception here.

1c text gimmicks are to lure in 12 year old abortion failures to sell pink Samsung flip phones.

HTC Desire HD is what we're talking about boys.

I can also nominate a freecall landline on this deal, two freecall mobiles. Telstra is really going tits out these days, but to be completely honest, I've done the yards with this phone. I managed a $197.63 bill on a $60/m plan - but I got in on the ground floor of NextG when they said "we won't do caps on NextG - It's not like the other networks that are selling sand at the beach".

is that top hose ment to be so close to the engine cover ??? or does it sit under it a bit ???

[skillionaire]

Top tank hose looks kinked. But I wouldn't know.

Don't change the subject...

i pay $19 and get $150 worth of calls pre paid caps are the way to go

I pay $29 and get $150 worth of calls + 500mb of data. Happy with pre-paid

Which provider are you with?

Nope. Not kinked at all. Don't worry boys.

There's a cut out in the engine cover for it.

Turns out the aftermarket ones the same total thickness as the stock one.

Also, for those that recommended the apple phone variant, I believe it's number four now? I don't like them, but if it was honestly the best option I would get it. Problem is, the IP4 is the worst incarnation of the fruit phone yet for reception. A couple of my long term tradies changed over to fruit phone for the 'walkie talkie' functionality - that's pretty much what they have now, two shiny coffee shop walkie talkies, because you sure as fuck can't call them when they are driving down Caves Rd.



Alisha still likes hers, but we'll see.

Nokia
Apple
HTC
????

Anything else?

hahah yeah thats what i ment to say the $19 cap gets me $80 worth of calls and a 1 gig but the $29 gives me $150 virgin all the way haha i once asked for a 19 year old virgin once when i was asking for a top up hahahha

[Morgan]

I'm not up on corporate plans but Nik, that sounds like a sweet deal!

i pay $19 and get $150 worth of calls pre paid caps are the way to go

Prepaid caps are alright.
2 years ago when I was on prepaid, I used to get all these calls from Testra (I'm on Virgin), trying to get me onto one of their plans.
But it seriously took me between 4-6 months to go through $30 credit! All my friends were on virgin and they were all free!
Had a few of the telemarketers say, "Well, we can't help you". Bahahaha

But I was a stingy barstard...wait, nothing's changed
Now I have more to use, I use it more and we don't have a home phone so we use my mob instead.
