GOLD WINNER 
BOOST MOBILE

Distance is less of a communication barrier, thanks to these flexible, low-cost deals

For those who have family overseas, it needn't cost the earth to stay connected. What's interesting about the international calls category is that two of the top three are prepaid.

The winners were ranked by the range and type of international calls included and the price of a no-contract monthly or prepaid plan.

The international calls and SMS inclusions don't mean that you have to give up the other typical parts of the plan such as data.

The Boost Mobile $20 prepaid deal leads the pack. At $20 for 28 days, it includes unlimited calls and SMS to 20 selected destinations plus 100 minutes and SMS to 35 countries.

The Pennytel Large Plus - 10GB offering is also great value. $24.99 gets you unlimited calls and text to 15 selected countries ALDI's prepaid Mobile L Value Pack for $25 is also good value, especially for such a small telco, with 100 minutes to 35 selected countries. You can roll over data to the next month.

Hi there, my SIM has been locked-blocked for some time, since I gave it to my ex-wife to use in her pad, late last year. I just found out about it when attempting to use it on this laptop.

I have not been able to access my account, all I know is that $20.00 has been deducted from my Bank account every month. Don't know the phone number but the blocked SIM number is; ************.

Please help me unblock the SIM, or whatever needs to be done in order to make the SIM usable.

Best regards Aulis.

Both my husband and I have $20 prepaid boost. It gives us all we need but I have one question. I have been told that boost and Telstra are the same company. Telstra is offering the same deal but unused internet is rolled over. Does this happen on your plan. It is also not linked to my points that accumulate on my Telstra account.

Hello,

I'm using this service for a while, probably they have worst maintenance team. Generally you can't meet them

But luckily, I met a whole team in Sydney. I described my problem and they assured me that they will fix and put some new datas, but nothing happened.

After few days I have chatting with them but still my problem is same.

Now I'm decided to not using this Boost network
