The whole text is just... dumbed down.

 

 

"Good choice of plan you good thing. Hope your mates have joined on Pool plans and you’re not hogging this wicked deal to yourself. This plan is a bit like a Texas all you eat buffet, but without the messy ranch dressing. Ok folks, enough chitchat, switch your phone to flight mode and buckle in for the flight TC101"

 

"Mobile Phone means the petite, medium or grande (without fries please) personal GSM mobile phone approved by us for use on our Network and used by you with a SIM card to connect to our Network."

 

"All rates are inclusive of GST (ie that consumption tax which was introduced 1 October 1986 and has since been increased by a whopping 50%!). We don’t get to keep though, it all goes to the government."

 

 

Whoa...

I don't think putting a rant about GST in your T&Cs is terribly professional.

Grooviness aside, the mention of your "bat-phone" made me chuckle.

I get that - but perhaps better to be in the marketing side of things, not the T&Cs - it's the T&Cs that get scrutinised when there's a problem, so best written in clear, plain language with no room for misinterpretation.
