Catch Connect - Catch of the Day's prepaid telco play - has expanded its plan range with three 365-day recharges. To celebrate the addition, Catch will give you 30% off any year-long plan if you sign up before July 2.
Catch's 365-day recharges will give you all of your data upfront, so you will need to be careful how you use it. You don’t want to burn through all 180GB in your first month, and then be stuck purchasing extra data-packs for the rest of the year. If you do go over, $10 gets you an extra 1GB, while $15 gets you 2GB. Catch's 365-day recharges are as follows:
- 36GB (equivalent to 3GB per 30 days): $139, down from $199 (equivalent to $11.60 per month)
- 72GB (equivalent to 6GB per 30 days): $189, down from $270 (equivalent to $15.75 per month)
- 180GB (equivalent to 15GB per 30 days): $238, down from $340 (equivalent to $19.80 per month)
All of Catch's 365-day plans include unlimited talk and text, but no international usage.
If you're okay with paying for a year upfront, Catch's 365-recharges are quite competitive. For example, when it comes SIM-only plan with at least 15GB, you're not going to pay any less than $30 per month (on a 12-month contract).
If you're not quite willing to commit to a whole year, Catch Connect's 30-day recharges have been discounted by $10 until the end of May. This discount only applies to your first month of service, however.
Catch Connect is powered by the Optus network. If you're not convinced, check out 365-day prepaid mobile plans from other providers.
