Citing the fact that “life’s complicated enough these days without confusing mobile phone plans added to the mix,” Virgin’s Australian marketing director, David Scribner, is touting the Simple Plan as offering two “no-commitment options that are perfect for those who want an easy to understand plan with no hidden caps or rate plan complexities.” What’s more, Schriber says the plan is made even simpler by the fact you can either “bring your own phone and enjoy a no ties month to month contract or choose the Simple Prepaid recharge and enjoy a 90 day expiry.”
Schriber says that with one flat per minute rate across calls and texts to a “whopping 100 countries,” both plans have no call connection fees, no contracts and “no surprises but still all the fantastic perks that Virgin Mobile customers have become accustomed to: free voicemail, unlimited mobile calls and text Virgin to Virgin and freedom to rollover your unused plan credit to the following month.”
According to Schriber, with no commitment and no minimum contracts, the Simple Plans have a 15cent/min flat rate for calls and 15cent text messages and 100MB of data along with $19 worth of call credit.
“The feedback we have received is that Australians sometimes find the complexities of some rate plans confusing to understand and just want a simple plan that isn’t going to hurt their brain trying to work out how much they are going to be paying.
“We believe the Simple Plan provides exactly this. Continuing to offer a fair and transparent service to our members is at the core of our business model and these new plans really deliver what consumers have told us they want,” Scribner says.
