Call me practical – what’s your monthly mobile bill? I’m interested in comparing UK vs Australia prices.
On my O2 account for the iPhone I am paying GBP£35 per month which is about AUS$70
This gives me 600 minutes, 500 texts, free wifi and “unlimited” 3G.
I would need to pay extra for internet tethering.

Thanks. My experience is that Australia telecommunications costs are pricey compared to US, so I was curious for the UK info.
For A$59/month Optus 3G plan gives me 350min, free (domestic)text, 700G download and the phone itself.
