amaysim is adding to COVID-19 relief as the provider announces additional mobile data for its customers for use until April 15, 2020.

“We recognise that our customers rely on our service to connect with family, friends and colleagues, as well as medical and emergency service providers. Keeping our customers connected is our number one priority! That’s why we’re offering customer additional mobile data to assist their increasing needs during this period.” Said amaysim Founder, CEO and Managing Director, Peter O’Connell.

Effective immediately, amaysim customers on a $10 mobile plan will receive 10GB additional data, $20 mobile plan customers will get 20GB extra, and $30 plan holders will receive 30GB bonus data. Customers on plans $40 and over will have unlimited data for the duration of the promotion.

All amaysim customers will continue to receive unlimited talk and text as standard.

The provider cites potential strains on the NBN network, urging customers to utilise the extra data to free up bandwidth wherever possible.

While amaysim's measures currently only last until April 15, a spokesperson told us that the company "will continue to assess the situation and do what it can to support its customers during this time".

amaysim’s package aligns with those from telcos Telstra, Optus, Vodafone, and internet service providers Aussie Broadband and Superloop.
