Well - As seen in OT Vodafone have ended the free txting weekends.

So - For you - Which is more worthwhile - Vodafone or Telecom???

Chickenman and I have long been with Vodafone however have recently switched to Telecom - and will be staying that way since the release of Vodafones latest deal.

i just changed to Txt2000, all my mates and family bar 2 are on vfone

telecom hard. have been last 4 years
ch0

Im on VF...600 txt, 20 anytime minutes and phoneinsure for $42 p/month.

Works well for me, I dont send anymore than 550ish txts a month, and if I need to call people I can.

vodafone, because it is not telecom

Vodafone, Txt 600 * use about 400 ish, to Telecom and VF * and also 250
free mins, Anytime day or night to any number.

VF for the win!!

Telecom shafts people.

Im gunna do a tally on my texts then will prob go to supa prepay, and ad a bestmate thingi, would be good if bf was on vodafone, but when ya live together ya dont really need to text that much, i just ring from work!!

thats my thoughts exactly

I can see why people would go to Telecom, I think they seem to have better deals, and Vodafone seems to be trying to play catch up, But my god Telecom has some rubbish phones and they pissed me off once to often so I switched everything accross to Telstra and vodafone

telecom, 99.99% txt'er

10 bucks for 1000 txts to telecom, works for me

Vodafone prepay cos can't afford any contract!

You wanna watch out doing that - many employers have a clause tucked into their contract or telephone use agreements that requires chargeable calls to be of a work related nature....

i have both

That'll cost you more in tyres.

Have been with Vodafone for the past 4 years, so sticking with them.
TXT2000 and BestMate rock

So that text2000 thing cost $10 regardless of whether or not you use 2000 texts a month right???

It doesn't just add up all you texts and once it hits $10, stops charging you until you hit 2000?

They take $10 out of your account, and you get 2000 txts to send a month.

Ditto for me

I dont spend much on my cell phone. Just the odd random text, and video calls to my mates for a laugh .

I also hate telecoms range of phones. High end Sony Ericsson/Samsung phones FTW!

Both, Soon to be Optus...

Im cheap and they both screw you so I have both, I rarely call people so free minutes dont turn me on, and I can crank thru around 4-5000 worth of txts on Telescum a month, and now with 2000 4 $10 on Vodaload I have used my 2000 already in 25 days

I have an addiction
