Meanwhile, 2degrees are trying to tempt me to "upgrade"...
Wait a second... Is this how the Buy One, Get One offers work?

It all adds up because if you buy through PB tech (and get the bundle) you should (hopefully) get the $100 account credit and the six months of half price cell phone plan.
The six months half price plan is actually a decent benefit. I got then when I brought my S8+ a couple of years ago. 2D had just started their 25gb for $70 plan so I sat on that for the six months ($35) and built up over a 100gb of carry over data. As soon as the special ended I dialed the plan down to the minimum amount I could cos hey, I have lots of carry over data and never make actual voice calls. I then shared the data with the wife and kids (no cost) and they are on the cheapest $9 prepaid pack just to get some text messages. It's taken me two years with everyone doing all the streaming they want and I have just about got down to zero gb. I will go back up to the $70 plan for a month or two to build it back up. When you add in the free hour of data clock per day (which I and the kids use any time I start streaming anything) thats a fairly good deal and adds up to a decent saving across the whole family. In my opinion having a decent amount of carry over data is better than an unlimited data plan because you can hotspot the data, share it with family and once you have built up a decent chunk you can dial the plan back down. Yay for NZ not being in the $20 for 1gb world any more.
2d is the best telco imho. I just wish they had better 4g coverage in the country like Spark does.
