vich van and vhy?
how's your reception?

i've been with vodafone since i got my first mobile many years ago, and recently i've noticed it's been sucking (takes ages to send a txt, receive about 5 txts in a row which weren't sent at the same time) and im thinking of maybe possibly changing.

Telstra.

They are pissing me off lately though as I can't recharge anymore with my credit card. I used to be able to recharge with my credit card although now it always says my cards are declines (when I am using the right/same details and there is money in them). Googling it reveals this happens to a lot of people...

Optus.

I actually find it's pretty good. there's only sometimes where i want to hit/throw my phone but that's actually quite rare for me. maybe it's just where i live ?

Telstra, my phone is used for the sole purpose of telling me the time though so yeh.
I'm guessing my credit has probably expired long ago.

Join 3. They are excellent and pretty reliable.

Great service too!

If you want reliability and dont mind paying a bit extra - telstra
if you want pretty decent reliability and want a good price - optus

personally i'm with tpg as their cheap and use the optus network, no complaints so far.
I would avoid 3 and vodafone

Pretty good. And I had free Facebook when I was on prepaid, and I never ever bought credit.
Awesome reception, I guess. And decent price.

Vodafone, the reception seems to be getting a lot better lately especially for 3G, maybe it's those new towers they were going to put up.

TPG is epic cheap. Reception is good because it's on the optus network.

Optus. Great pre-paid plans, horrible reception.
Fuck you Optus.
