Why Choose a No-Contract Phone Plan?

In the last few years, mobile phone providers have begun to realise that most Australians don’t want to sign their lives away for 12 or 24 months for a mobile phone plan. The good news is that this means almost every mobile phone plan in Australia is on a month-to-month contract. Whether you choose a prepaid or postpaid mobile plan, you can almost guarantee that you’ll be able to switch and compare plans whenever you want.

It’s important to note, however, that just because your mobile plan is no-contract that doesn’t mean you’ll always be free to switch providers whenever you want. If you’re on a phone repayment plan, you’ll need to pay that out before you leave your current provider (either all at once or by waiting until the end of your payment period). If you have bundled home services (such as a bundled mobile and NBN plan, or a bundled broadband and entertainment plan), you might still be contracted for one of these other services.
