International mobi roaming gets cheaper

In recent weeks a fundamental shift in mobile roaming has occurred with Vodafone and Optus both announcing new arrangements for overseas travellers.

The Optus approach is to divide the world into a couple of regions and set out very clear pricing for calls, texts and data use in those areas. Additionally they are making available a $10 a day option which removes the worry with calls and texts making them unlimited and gives you a 30mb per day data allowance.

Vodafone announced their new “Red” plans ($65,$85,$100 month) which give users the option of the $5 per day roaming while in the US, UK and New Zealand on their normal plan entitlements.
