Hey everyone, just got my iphone 4 from vodafone collins street this afternoon.... Apparently they had stock today... Was so lucky to actually found it as I was asking every telco shops that I passed by and finally found it...
I signed up to the 12 months contract plan 49 cap and also top up of 35 for the phone per month... Im loving my iphone4 haha.. So far just installed some free apps onto it... Just for those who are interested you may try your luck this Monday as they said they might have stock... Just give it a try =) |

Im not sure but I went vodafone.. Im not sure how many ppl are waiting for it... But got the last unit from them.. The lady told me they might have stock on this coming Monday...
Not only Optus has 12 months plan... Vodafone has them... There is no minimum cap amount for the plan from Vodafone.. I saw 29 cap plan for vodafone but u have to pay quite high for the phone per month... So its up to you... And definitely optus 12 months plan is much more expensive compared to vodafone... Im not sure if you could upgrade your plan and the upgrading fee... Maybe you can ask around... 3 will have their 12 months plan starting from 20th August.. The 3 dealer guy told me that... Didnt really check their plans out.. Shouldnt be much different as 3 is under vodafone... Hope the info helps.. Cheers |

QUOTE(y_owez @ Aug 13 2010, 11:41 PM) thanks. yea i think 3's and vodafone's pricing would *should* be the same since they've merge. 3 and vodafone pricing should be the same except there is some extra data offered by vodafone iinm... You can always opt for the 12 months plans just that need to pay a little higher but still worth it.... Im not sure how much the exiting fee for the contract.. You could ask them about it... im a casual phone user le..hardly sms or call. only use to go internet. so dont really want to spend so much on those data calls when i dont even use them! i use to be on the 29 cap.hardly use. free 3 to 3 also uselss hahaah  def 24 months would be cheaper if divide 2 = to 12 months le... just not sure want to be locked in 24 months contract or not. say next year new iphone is out then how? break contract ar? lol and want to ask, since i've not used iphone before, do we need alot of data mb for it? usually use for facebook,mail, bit youtube stuff like that my friend signed up with optus have to wait 4 weeks le..maybe voda got extra stock.  Never really counted on the data MB before but should be enough what they offered. Just dont youtube so much... Facebook all should be no problem... Youtube can save till you go home haha.... QUOTE(bjonbjonbjon @ Aug 14 2010, 01:46 AM) cbb chasing after this phone around the city, so went on optus website n rainchecked the phone..placed the order on 14 august, expected delivery date 16 august. Will update here when it comes. Wow so fast? 2 days only can arrive? Yesterday they told me had to wait like 2-5 weeks minimum.. LOL.... Really cannot trust them so much.. |

QUOTE(hihihehe @ Aug 23 2010, 11:29 PM) i have 1 friend managed to order/buy it from 3 today and waiting for delivery..so i assume he order via online... 3 offers 12 months. I have asked them before. They started the 12 month contract plan either last Friday or this week.and i think 3 only offer 24months.. QUOTE(y_owez @ Aug 24 2010, 11:09 AM) oh ic ic, hmm cause i think previously someone said he went to vodafone at collins and got the stock from the shop? or smtg like that? Yes Ive got it from Vodafone collins..... Just switch to optus or voda by porting ur number. The staff (optus or voda) can do it for you. Dont need to do anything. No matter what you still have to wait for the stock to arrive first...cant remember..if so lucky man!! still tossing optus or voda now. i'm with 3 now, so if i want to jump over to either these 2 network, what do i have to do to maintain my number? do i have to go to 3 first?( using the sim only plan ) or get the iphone first? thanks, and, if switching over, got any type like refer-a-friend program smtg? hehe if can get some credit off why not |

Just wanna ask if there is anybody who ordered casing under the free casing program that didnt get their casing? Im getting very frustrated as it state the delivery date is on the 20th Sept and till today no news from apple nor the casing.
Ive been trying to call the stupid apple help line several times a day and those bloody operators are always busy and I dont know why.... Did anyone tried contacting them and actually got through? Is it possible if I go to the apple store and made the complaint? Im not sure are they handling the apple store online as well.... Anybody have any clue? |
