As soon as you arrive in Australia, you would like to buy a SIM to communicate with your families and friends. For that there are some choices:

  1. Boost ( This is personally my choice as they are cheap and backed by network of Telstra). They provide unlimited Indian calling.
  2. Vodafone, Lyca, Belong and Boost are cheaper alternatives as compared to Telstra and Optus.

The numbers in Australia start from “04” and total digits are 10 including first 0. For ex a typical number would be 04XXXXXXXX where X is a digit. If you want to call overseas from your mobile, you need to dial country code and then number. For ex: +91 9888371957

 

Amaysim is the best and cheapest plan in Australia as compared to other plans as it offers you huge data and free international calling and texts.
