Your device

Bring your own compatible device or buy one outright or with 12, 24, or 36 monthly payments (some exclusions apply). If you cancel early, you’ll need to pay the rest of your device repayments in full. Make sure your device works with our network - especially for emergency calls.

Check compatibility at telstra.com/support/mobiles-devices/enable-volte-mobile-phone.

Your coverage

Check our coverage maps at telstra.com/our-coverage to see if network coverage is predicted to be available in the areas where you intend to use your service, as well as information about factors that may impact coverage.

Your data

Your data allowance is for personal use in a smartphone or tablet in Australia. The FairPlay Policy applies.

You won’t be charged if you go over your monthly data allowance. Instead, your data will be slowed to 1.5Mbps or below, making some content slower to load - such as HD video or high-speed applications. Heavy data users may experience slower speeds during busy periods.

You’ll get alerts at 50%, 85%, and 100% usage. Check your usage in the My Telstra app.

Your payment options

You can manage your payment methods in the My Telstra app. If you have chosen AutoPay, we'll automatically debit your service payments each month. View our Direct Debit Services Agreement at telstra.com/setupdirectdebit.

There are no payment fees if you pay using AutoPay via Bank Account, or BPAY to pay your Telstra bill. More info about additional payment options including any applicable fees at telstra.com/payment-fees.

Changes to your plan

We may change your plan including price and inclusions or move you to a new one (which may cost more). If it has a detrimental impact on you, we’ll give you at least 30 days’ notice. You can cancel if you’re not happy, but you’ll need to pay off any remaining device, accessory or service costs.

Cancelling your plan

You can cancel your plan at any time by calling us, messaging us or visiting a Telstra store. When you cancel, your service will be disconnected immediately, and we won't refund any money you've already paid. Cancellation of your service will impact other services, accessories or device repayments linked with it. We will let you know if any other charges apply when you cancel.

To check early cancellation fees, log in at telstra.com/myaccount or to the My Telstra app, go to your service details, and review your plan or contract for any charges or remaining device payments.

Satellite Messaging

To use Telstra Satellite Messaging, you need a compatible phone with the latest software, a Telstra Upfront Mobile Plan, and to be located outdoors within the satellite network with a clear view of the sky.

Telstra Satellite Messaging isn’t designed to be an emergency service, as you can’t text Australian emergency responders directly. If you intend to visit remote regions, it's always recommended to plan ahead and take extra precautions in the case of an emergency.

Check for more information on coverage, what it can't be used for and how it works at telstra.com/coverage-networks/mobile-technology/satellite-to-mobile.

International Calling Pack

Telstra Upfront Mobile Plans include 30 minutes of calls from Australia to standard international numbers and unlimited SMS and MMS to standard international numbers.

If you use up the included international calls, you can add an International Calling Pack from $10 per month. You can add or remove it at any time in the My Telstra app. An International Calling Pack includes an allowance of calls from Australia to standard international numbers in eligible destinations. View eligible destinations at telstra.com/shop/international-calling-packs.

International Roaming

To use your Telstra service overseas you need an International Roaming Day Pass. Cost and data allowances depend on the zone of your destination. If your daily data allowance of 2GB within the Day Pass runs out, you'll get a text with the option for a 2GB data top-up for $10 that stays active for 31 days. Read about destinations and zones at telstra.com/international-roaming.

If you’re travelling to a destination where our International Roaming Day Pass isn’t available, you cannot use your Telstra service.

Telstra One Number

Telstra One Number lets you use your smart watch to make calls and send messages without needing your phone nearby. You just need a smart watch that can connect to the Telstra Mobile Network, a compatible phone, and an Upfront Mobile Plan. Telstra One Number costs $5 a month and is added to your existing account payment. For a list of compatible devices, visit telstra.com/TelstraOneNumber.

FairPlay Policy

All customers must adhere to our FairPlay Policy. This means you shouldn't use your service in an unacceptable, unfair, or dishonest way, or do anything that interferes with the network or causes significant congestion. If you breach the policy, we might stop or cancel your service. For more details, visit telstra.com/customer-terms.
