Prepaid Mobile Review – 3 Mobile
The best way to review 3 Mobile’s prepaid mobile phone plans is to take a look at how many calls you can get from the credit they offer. The $29 Cap gives you 71, 2 min calls to anyone and 71 calls to other 3 Mobile phones. The $49 Cap gives you 165 to any & 165 to 3 Mobile, $69 Cap offers 260 to anyone and 260 to 3 Mobile and the $99 Cap gives you 391 to anyone and 391 to 3 Mobile. I addition to all of this, 3 Mobile also offers data with each plan, starting from 150MB, reaching 2GB, plus all plans come with $10 worth of Planet 3. Credit for all plans is only 30 days.

So in summary, there is plenty of things to like about these plans as the credit is quite appealing even though the call rates and flagfall aren’t. What is a little disappointing is the boring credit expiry of just 30 days. This is something I think 3 Mobile should work on.

About 12 months ago, 3 Mobile also launched their bonus plans. The credit expiry was improved to 60 days and the call rates reduced based on how much you recharge. Bonus $30 has 35c per 30 seconds, Bonus $50 is 30c and Bonus $100 is 25c. In addition to the credit, the each of the plans gives you 75, 2 minute calls to 3 Mobile & 150 free text when you recharge. In terms of how many calls you can make with each plan to other networks, $30 gives you 17 calls to anyone, $50 gives you 32 calls and $100 gives you 74 calls to anyone.

I don’t quite get the value of the the Bonus plans. Obviously the rates are better but the total calls you can make are much lower. If you can stick within the limits, then the caps are better value.
