Woolworths reworks prepaid mobile plans with more data and calls
Better options from the newly-renamed Woolworths Pre-paid mobile.
Woolworths only launched its prepaid mobile offering back in June under the "Woolworths Connect" brand. Now it has rebranded, while also upping the data and calling inclusions.
What was once Woolworths Connect is now the simpler Woolworths Pre-Paid Mobile. As before, it's a service offered on Telstra’s wholesale network, which means you’re limited to 3G-only speeds and a slightly smaller coverage footprint than the full Telstra network.
The two plan prices haven’t changed for mobile usage, with recharges set at $30 and $45 with 30 days of expiry. If you have a Woolworths Rewards card, you'll get a 10% discount. Here's what you get for your money compared to the now unavailable older Woolworths Connect plans.
