What can Spark customer's expect to be charged when using their phone in Aussie?
Australia roaming options
You can buy a Roaming Pack, Roaming Data Pack or use casual roaming rates.
Roaming Pack $20 for seven days | ||||
Roaming Data Pack $15 for seven days | ||||
Casual rates (If you don't buy a pack) |
*Every 200MB used costs $10, up to 14 times per day. If you exceed this in a day, your extra data costs $0.50 per 1MB. This resets each day at 00:00 NZT wherever you are in the world, regardless of how much data you've used.
You can buy and have more than one Roaming Pack or Roaming Data Pack at a time, if you need more allocation. The Roaming Pack or Roaming Data Pack which expires first will be used first
Once a roaming pack inclusion has been consumed or the pack has expired customers will revert to casual rates, unless they sign up for an additional roaming pack.
Roaming Pack and Roaming Data Pack allocations aren't able to be shared. The data, text and call allocations can only be used from the mobile number that they are bought for.
So, let's see how the value stack up against Flexiroam X.
Flexiroam X is much cheaper for data when travelling to Australia.
If you are travelling with a companion or with family or in a group, Flexiroam has the advantage of enabling you to gift data to other Flexiroam users. You can obtain better value buying a larger Data Plan and sharing it amongst your travel group.
