Hello Australian chums - and of course, congratulations on your win today at Lords.
At the end of the month me and the family are travelling to the West coast for 3 weeks to see family. Mainly spending out time in Broome, but we’ve got a 4x4 some small (carefully prepared, cautious) trips into more rural areas.
Our cellular UK provider’s rates for using phones is ruinously expensive, so I’m looking for advice on
-
Which cellular provider you would recommend to get a - presumably pre-paid SIM while we are out there. Main criteria are
-
Probably want about 4-8Gigs data, mainly calls within Australia with probably about 3 hours of calling back to the UK during this period on one phone.
-
Anyone know whether it is possible to get the SIMs before we travel in the UK? Or best to get them in Oz? and if the latter - best place to get them?
Sorry for the shopping list of questions. Any advice gratefully received.
I don’t think you can easily get a SIM prior to travelling (unless your phone supports esim).
However, this guide provides you with info on where you can buy Sims at various incoming Aussie airports - Sydney is first on the list. Boost (as per comment from @tuff_wizard ) is in the list.
