I called Vodafone yesterday to see if I could move onto a new tariff to reduce my data bill which is growing again. The operator I spoke to couldn’t help talking about the new data packages the Vodafone will be launching in June. He said that although the tariffs wouldn’t include an unlimited option they would offer much better rates.
He said that Vodafone has decided to do this because at the same time as more people have started to use their phones online, they’d been getting a lot of complaints about the $2.35/MB charges.
I really hope that the new Vodafone packages deliver as my data charges at the moment are about twice my voice costs even though I ration my usage. VoIP usage will probably still be excluded like with T-Mobile wen ‘n’ walk, but the new packages sound like they’re going to be a step in the right direction.
