Yeah, that's normally what I average. Just got a bill for $30 but that was
unusual because I have just cut over to the NBN and chose to use the mobile
to get that activated as quickly as possible. Long time on hold with 
MyRepublic
and needless to say that call to activate was the only one that has ever 
dropped
out while talking to the phone monkey so needed to do another. Total time 
was
about 1:10. $10ish. No big deal in the other costs, particularly the break 
fee with
dodo of $99 but that saves me $6/month so will pay for itself in the first 
year.

But we'd both get the same cost with aldi.

I really should change over to a $25/month unlimited national calls
and texts just for the convenience and wear the $15/month extra.

> My Smartphone uses WiFi mainly,

I don't get to do that here, only the library and the biggest mall
have wifi here that is any real use to me and even then, the only
time I actually use it is when twiddling my thumbs waiting for a
script to be filled for 10 mins and I should do that by ordering
it with the app and have it ready for pickup with no waiting.

Drive thru pickup too if I change chemists.

I pay for the data I use at 7.5c/KB

There is bugger all in it now between aldi and amaysim
but until there is something in it I'd rather stay with the
operation that put a bomb under the market first to
support them for doing that.
