What else do you need to know?
These changes are happening between early November 2024 and mid 2025. But we’ll let you know in advance when your plan is due to change.
There are also some changes to BestMates, International 45 and 90, Asia TALK&TXT, International Favourites TALKnTXT, International TXT and older Add-ons like BlackBerry and FaxMail.

Will the price of my mobile plan change?
Most likely, yes. We’re closing the mobile plan you’re currently on and moving you to a new mobile plan at a new price. We’re also removing any discounts that you may have been receiving so this could have an impact on your monthly payments. You’re welcome to choose a different plan.
Will my bill be different?
Your first bill after the change will be a little different. It will include a part-charge for your new plan, plus your usual month in advance. You may also see a credit for part of your old plan to line things up with your normal billing date. Read more about part month charges here.

Sorry, no. Any current discounts will end when you move to your new mobile plan.
Do I need to change my automatic payment or direct debit?
If you have an automatic payment set up for a fixed amount each month, you’ll need to update this to the new mobile and/or broadband plan price before for your next bill date after your plan changes. You don’t need to make any changes to your direct debit payment – this will continue as normal.
Will my Interest Free Payments change?
No. Any interest free payments you have will continue as normal. If you choose to cancel your plan, you’ll need to pay these off first.
