Second thing in a foreign country is a SiM cArD. It's really important to discover which mobile plan suits you most. For me it was Amaysim. My first flatmate Robert suggested me this company and I was pretty happy with that.

My plan was of 45 dollars/month but I 've just had a quick look on their web page and I have seen they have a kind of  "no worries" mobile plan with 5GB and unlimited talk & texts for 39.90 dollars/month.

Basically, the best deals are usually from smaller mobile companies which use the big telco companies networks (Amaysim and Yatango Mobile use for instance the Optus Network). The best deal depends on your calls, texting, data use and how long you want your credit to last.

We can split the users according three types:

- heavy
- medium
- light

For heavy users the Amaysim Mobile Unlimited ist the best pick, that is 5GB and unlimited talk & texts for 39.90 dollars/month.

For medium users there is unlimited calls & texts + 1Gb Mobile data for 24.90 dollars/month always of Amaysim and

for light users the best offer is from Telstra with 200 dollars calls & 200Mb Data for 12.50 dollars/month.


When I started with Amaysim, the activation was really quick. Everything can be easily requested online and once done you receive the sim card by post. You get the bill monthly and it goes directly away from your bank account. That's why the first step is to open one (see my previous post).

Once again it's all for today :) I wish to all of you a good night and sweet dreams :)
