3 Mobile has announced an adjustment to its Business Shared caps plan with increased call allowances and a selection of cap upgrades on offer.
There are nine price increments on the 3 Business Shared caps plan. Cap pricing starts from AU$199 per month for AU$1,200 call credit for up to four users on the same account. The largest number of users on an account is for up to 60 users sharing AU$16,000 worth of calls per month on an AU$2,499 per month contract.
In a first for Australia, customers will also be able to share a monthly broadband allowance. For a cost ranging from AU$75 to AU$750 per month, customers sharing an account will have access to between 5 and 60GB of mobile data each month, accessing the internet using a 3 Mobile USB broadband key.
Business customers also have the option to include Email on 3, offering users unlimited email on their handsets and up to six email accounts per phone. For an extra cost customers on a Business Shared Cap can also triple the monthly allotment of free calls to other 3 Mobile customers, including those sharing the cap. These features attract additional monthly costs and are optional.
3's Business Caps are available to customers holding an ABN or ACN. Details, including terms and conditions, can be found at the 3 Mobile website.
I have been a 3 business customer for nearly 2 years and as soon the contract is finished I am going elsewhere. Constant call drop outs and poor broadband speeds now have me working permanently on the GSM spectrum (roaming on Telstra) as the 3 network is just not up to the mark as far as reliabilty goes. The merge with Vodafone later this year can only make it better (I hope) but I will be with another carrier before then.
