    The plans look good but what is Vodafone going to offer those that what to upgrade their current iPhones? What deals are you going to do for customers like myself that want to upgrade to a phone that will work where we live?

  2. BS says:

    What’s the Bonus 1GB thing? Am I blind or is it not explained anywhere?

  3. lolitajayne says:

    so when are they available?

  4. John Gibson says:

    I am really disappointed that Vodafone have not allowed 12 month contracts this time around.

    Why not Vodafone?
    It’s cheaper to buy a new iPhone outright and continue on my current contract then cancel and upgrade, why is this Vodafone?

    Look – Even Telstra have 12 month contracts. I would like to let your management know that I am calling your “upgrades team” to find out my payout and will leave your company on Friday. This is really disappointing and I will never be a VMA customer again.

  5. Brent Slater says:

    The Bonus data doesn’t make sense? is it for the total contract or just the first month or something. Not explained anywhere

  6. shayne says:

    We’ll this is obviously just the early details. They have said they will announce properly what the plans are tomorrow. Most of Voda’s phone plans come with about 500mb for a $49 cap. So if they’re gonna give us an extra 1gb that’s freaking sweet.

  7. spencer says:

    I also want to know what the plus bonus data mean? Can some one tell us? Thank you!

  8. Jim says:

    The bonus is on top of what they already give which shows it there…eg. $99 plan u get 1gb plus the bonus of another 1gb which = 2gb in total

  9. Jim says:

    Correction it’s 2gb 1gb bonus so = 3gb… Not to bad if u ask me

  10. kras says:

    The “bonus data” is data that you get gifted on a per-month basis.

    For example, for the $49 plan, you will get 1GB bonus worth of data free to use during your monthly billing cycle, in addition to the 500MB that’s provided with the plan.

    Obviously, all this is not carried forward to the following month (just like how the credit for most of the “Caps” work).

    If you are/were a 3 customer who bought the 3GS, then you would probably know how this works :)

  11. kras says:

    @shayne: Yes, it’s bonus — probably your thanks should go to the 3 team for giving VF the idea to include this…

    At the same time, the 3 Cap plans now also include a base data allowance PLUS the existing bonus 1GB data.

    So I guess mergers can be good, sometimes… ;)

  12. Heidi says:

    Can you use the $800 worth of calls on the monthly $79 plan to make international calls? I notice that the $800* has a little * next to it and says you can use it for ‘international voice’ (is that international calls?). And if so can you also get this on the $99 unlimited plan? Because the unlimited plan has a ** next to it and doesn’t mention including international phone calls.

  13. Liza says:

    Will Vodafone be selling the phones outright-locked as well?

  14. Darcy says:

    I just hope that’s a permanent bonus, not a 1-month bonus or some shit like that.

  15. Jess says:

    Of course you get the bonus data for 24 mths !! That would be silly to get it for a month only. $49 plan is the best out of the all the networks. I’ll be upgrading soon… Well Done Vodafoen. All you need now is stock !!

  16. Kay says:

    This rocks my world.

    Extra 1GB! bring it on

  17. Carl says:

    Loving the Plans! I hope it is 1GB Bonus every month becos that will be sweet! Don’t know some people buy into the whole ‘Atenna’ thing that was blown WAY out of proportion! I’m loving the new iPhone 4!

  18. michelle says:

    R U SURE????? why are there $29 plan? anything wrong with the iphone 4?????

  19. Julian Wood says:

    A lot better than telstra plans!!!!!!!!! i want to know about the bonus data. and btw, telstra only offers 24 month contracts. Cheers

  20. Alf says:

    Can we purchase on friday midnight or early Friday morning and can you pre order or purchase online

  21. Dom says:

    Vodas plans are the best so far,Optus wants you to pay for the phone even on a $79 cap.Most people who bought an iphone originally will be out of contract now.I cant see them doing upgrades for free for people that bought the S.cant wait till Friday.

  22. Christian De Marco says:

    Is it possible to get the new iPhone 4 on the $79 Unlimited Cap?
    It looks like every other phone is available on that plan, and of course I don’t need the extra bonus data.

  23. lizzie says:

    Is it possible to buy the iphone 4 outright from Vodafone?

  24. Carrie says:

    agree to Paul.

    I have another 10 months to go on my current plan but i really want to upgrade to an Iphone 4. what options do we have?

  25. Angie says:

    Wow! Really disappointed with Vodafone’s offering. Locking customers into a 24 month contract for a device with a design flaw! Nice one.

  26. Dont know me says:

    Hi,

    These plans are the current t&c’s for the new Vodafone plans (which include international calls up to credit limit).

  27. Vodafone Blog says:

    Hi everyone,

    I’m seeing a few questions are regarding the bonus data included in the plans and what it actually means.

    Basically if you take the $99 Unlimited plan for instance, it gives you 2GB of included data plus an extra 1GB of included data as well. This means as a total you would get 3GB of data each month on the $99 Unlimited Cap for the period of your contract.

    Cheers

  28. Thomas says:

    Are you going to offer a 12 month handset repayment option?

  29. Tim says:

    Hi all,

    I have another 12mths remaining on my contract with vodafone and am quite happy to stay with them. i plan on purchasing an iPhone outright from Apple but this all depends on if vodafone will be offering micro-sims to customers who ask for them or if they will only be available if you sign up for a new contract?

    Hi lolitajayne,

    This link should help you in finding your local Vodafone store – http://vodafone.com.au/personal/iphone/stores/index.htm

    Hi Alf,

    This link should answer your question about purchasing this on Friday midnight or early Friday morning – http://vodafone.com.au/personal/iphone/stores/index.htm

    Cheers

  32. Greg says:

    If Bonus Data is no different from the included data, why confuse everyone by calling it BONUS??

    Why not just say a plan includes 2GB data rather than 1GB + 1GB bonus?

    By calling it Bonus you immediately assume there are some kind of conditions that apply.

  33. Stephen says:

    Hi Vodafone Blog,

    Instead of standing in the rain, I’d like to order online. Will this become available at midnight tonight?

  34. Josh says:

    Can we please get some details (even if it’s “you just have to pay your contract out in full”) about those of us who want to upgrade? The phone is released in 24hrs after all…

  35. Vodafone Blog says:

    Hi Stephen,

    The online store should be available to take orders from midnight

    Cheers

    Vodafone

  36. Vodafone Blog says:

    Hi Thomas,

    Yes we will be, check back after 12 midnight.

    Cheers

    Vodafone
