Does anyone know if Telecom is still giving away the free data sticks or has that offer ended?

Cheers

When I looked a few weeks ago at my local Leading Edge they still had some, I saw some at Dick Smith as well. The stick itself is free, you pay $30 for the data.

Harvey Norman stores have them as well for $29.99 with no requirement to present a Telecom bill to get this unlike the original Telecom promo.

Was the whole thing just a stock clearing exercise? If it's still going they must have had a few to give away!

Maybe.

I thought it was a brilliant ploy to get people on their data network.  I've gotten rid of my Vodafone data card and use my T-stick more and more.  Can't argue with the fantastic speeds.

Would pay to ring around the stores, the promo was on as long as they had stock of the orginal sticks on promo.




Tuataras were once feared by Māori as the messengers of Whiro, god of death and disaster.  Today, tuataras are regarded as a taonga (treasure), and as the kaitiaki (guardian) of the trails to the realms of the mind and spirit that give humans life.
