I'm hoping they never call the start of the day midnight. With VF I've lost a total of around $80 because twice my air time was to expire at midnight on a particular day and I thought it would be at the end of the day... I was going to top-up on the day it expires.

Waiting in anticipation for My 2Degrees...

ahmad: Wow Niel, for the sake of 1 day!


I start working very early so I can pick the kids up after school, then help them with homework.  Don't get to shops during the week.  Need a receipt for tax purposes and air time expired on a Saturday so i wanted to buy it on the Saturday.  the only reason I had so much air time is because I don't really use it and was given a $50 voucher a year before.  Also you have no idea of my cash flow setup, don't judge.

Anyway, the 2D air time expired after 12 months but the free goodies expires sooner.  I was under the impression it was 1 month for the free goodies, which is the reason for my post asking if they will extend the expiry of the free goodies.

I hope they do call the start of the day midnight because it actually is.

Don't hold your breath, it's 11:30am now and it's still down.  Maybe in true geek fashion midday is the start of a 2Degrees day? Cool

George, Jeff's fixed it. But each time we open it up so many people hit it that it overloads. We're working on a fix right now.

@Niel no judgement. Just a comment. And if you were able to claim a tax expense and $50 or whatever was at stake, I reiterate "for the sake of one day". Weird math.

I just ported now and it seemed to happen between 2 ad breaks on tv, so not bad at all considering it said business hours...
