The ads and website look "cheap" but shame the call pricing aint.

Cheapest calling is 40c (110-12/250) then the rate goes up to 55c.

Still, kudos for not locking people in contract.

The 30 on Black and White:

30 Anytime minutes
600 anywhere texts

$30

Starter 600 on Vodafone

30 anytime minutes
600 anywhere texts
Free Bestmate
Plus current promotion- free broadband lite for 3 months.


Why on earth would anyone sign up to black and white? They arn't cheaper at all... if anything, they aremore expensive.

The only difference i can see is that they have no terms.

They also charge for free weekends (which Vodafne give away for free on Talker plan).

Not against BW, but i just don't see how they expect to survive....

OMG that ad made me tune out as soon as the voice came on.
You guys should hire some marketing/communications people.
