Hi Skinny.

I was looking at getting some more dat yesterday and when I looked at the addons I see.

That 300MB add-on looks like a great buy!

Do data add-on balances roll over?

TonyR1973: Do data add-on balances roll over?

I suspect not but would be nice. About 6 hours after I asked the question I got a SMS from Skinny saying that this was available..

I find that's a real problem with these telcos - finding out concisely all the relevant information to assess suitability for your purpose. The worst has to be Vodafone. I was helping a mate out with his landline/internet/mobile account as he went over the measly 80GB data cap on his broadband and the plans are so jumbled and intertwined it's almost impossible to figure out the cost of what works best for him. I actually gave up.
