VPNs for ad-blocking Below we have a selection of current mobile phone plans that compare favourably to what you might have seen from OVO Mobile before the shutdown. However, the way they’re currently priced means you actually get a better deal with OVO’s mobile plans, saving about $15 a month for the equivalent amount of data - plus you get calls and texts if you want to make giant iPad sized calls, too. We’d recommend looking at the plans below for your tablet. That’s why it’s worth considering the next cheapest options from OVO, the MiniPlus Mobile Plan and the Small Mobile Plan. For $14.95 per 30 days, on the MiniPlus plan you’ll get 4GB of data as well as unlimited national calls and SMS. For $19.95, the Small plan offers an extra 6GB of data, scoring you 10GB per month all up. Currently, for $18 per month, Circles.Life’s cheapest plan provides 20 GB of data as well as unlimited calls and SMS in Australia, which is a seriously good deal (ending 10th January 2020). This promo lasts for 12 months when your plan will revert to $28 per month. It also prides itself on being Australian owned and operated. Its largest external shareholder is Southern Cross Austereo who runs a bunch of major radio stations in Australia, including Triple M and the Hit network. It’s no surprise then that OVO features exclusive content from those networks for customers. You might find some better data deals elsewhere, but if you love sports that get neglected by the big guys such as gymnastics, badminton, esports and netball, OVO has got you covered. Its data plans are generous, however not quite market-leading, so content is its real selling point. Strangely, OVO Play is no longer unmetered on OVO prepaid plans so it’s worth monitoring your data-usage via the iOS or Google Play app. OVO’s included content includes:
Australian Professional Drag Racing Series Australian Esports League University Cup Badminton Australia Formula Drift Gymnastics Australia Hit Radio Network Triple M Radio Network ACT Brumbies Super Rugby Water Polo Australia Chinese Super League football Aussie Pro Wrestling World Badminton Federation matches
These sports are free to stream but if you’re an OVO customer, you can bank up data for streaming via your prepaid mobile SIM. Strangely, OVO’s plans no longer offer unmetered streaming so the data you’re gifted back is only making up for what you’ve already used. Optus’ network covers over 98.5% of the Australian population, and unless you’re living in a really remote area, it’s hard to find a dead spot. However, if you’re after a phone outright, OVO does sell refurbished Samsung Galaxy and Apple iPhones. These include relatively cheap Samsung Galaxy S8 and Apple iPhone 7 devices. If you love your content and need to get a device bundled in with your plan, we recommend Optus to fill in that gap for you. There you get access to English Premier League, National Geographic content, data-free content streaming and the same mobile network. You can call OVO at 135 686 on weekdays between 9am to 8pm AEST and weekends and holidays between 10am to 6pm AEST. Alternatively, you can contact them via online web chat or get in touch through their social channels Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
