Most of the time when thinking about mobile plans, it's in terms of monthly inclusions. You pay "X amount" for a plan and receive "Y data" that lasts for anywhere between 28 days and a full month, after which it all typically resets.

But some telcos let you hold onto used data, as long as you stay signed up. This feature is called data rollover or data banking because unused data "rolls over" and is "banked" for future use.

Belong data banking

Telstra budget brand Belong offers one of the best data rollover schemes around, thanks to its unlimited data banking.

Conditions:

  • Unlimited data banking
  • No timed expiry for banked data
  • You can switch between any Belong plans and keep your banked data
  • You will lose your banked data if your payment is more than 25 days overdue or when you cancel your service
  • Data banking isn't available on data-only plans from Belong

Belong also allows data gifting. If you have at least 1.3GB of data you can donate any amount you have to spare to another Belong customer in 1GB increments. Gifted data is added to the recipient's data bank.

We also have a cheeky top tip for Belong customers who've built up a healthy data bank. The telco has a secret plan that's only on offer to customers who seek to cancel their service (you can find it via the Belong app). This plan is cheaper than other Belong plans and doesn't come with much data. But if you have a big enough pool of data just sitting there, you might as well save some money and start working your way through it.

Belong operates via the Telstra wholesale network. Here are Belong's plans with data banking:

#1

Everyday Mobile data banking

Everyday Mobile (formerly Woolworths Mobile) offers data rollover of 500GB or 1000GB on all its plans, depending on which you choose. This includes its monthly prepaid, long-expiry prepaid, and SIM-only (postpaid) plans. There's no timed expiry for your data bank, but the caveats surrounding switching plans are a bit more complex than some other providers.

When changing plans, you forfeit your data if:

  • You swap from any other type of plan to a long-expiry plan
  • You swap from a SIM-only (postpaid) plan to any 30-day prepaid plan
  • You downgrade to a cheaper plan of the same type (e.g. if both plans are 30-day prepaid)

You keep your banked data if:

  • You upgrade to a more expensive plan of the same type (e.g. if both plans are 30-day prepaid)
  • You swap from any 30-day prepaid plan to any SIM-only plan

Other conditions:

  • 500GB or 1000GB data banking limit, depending on the plan
  • No timed expiry for banked data
  • For 30-day or long-expiry prepaid plans, you need to recharge before expiry or you lose all banked data

Everyday Mobile also lets you gift your data between different services. You can gift up to 50% of your included plan data (rounded up) to another customer, with a minimum of 1GB. This doesn't include bonus data, data from add-ons you've bought or data that has been gifted to you. It also can't be data from your accrued data bank.

Boost data rollover

Boost Mobile's data rollover process lags behind other telcos. Only available on its 28-day plans, unused data only rolls over for use on your next recharge, after which it vanishes. Very few telcos still place this kind of timed expiry on data rollover.

There's no cap on how much data rolls over – except obviously it can't be more than is available on your plan. You also have to recharge before expiry, or no data rolls over at all.

Conditions:

  • Only included with the 28-day plans
  • Your rolled-over data is only available for the next 28-day recharge period, after which it's removed
  • You need to recharge your Boost plan before it expires for it to roll over

Here are all of Boost's 28-day recharges with data rollover:

What is data rollover (AKA data banking)?


Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

Data rollover and data banking are generally used to mean the same thing, though "rollover" can sometimes indicate limitations.

For both, your unused data is stored for future use – i.e. it "rolls over" or is "banked". Most telcos put a limit on how much you can store, often 200GB, 500GB, or 1000GB (1TB), but some offer unlimited data banking.

Some plans place an expiry date on their unused data, though at this point it's so rare that only one provider in our database does this. In these cases, the term "rollover" is used more commonly than "banking". For example, if you have 30GB of unused data one month, it might only be available to use if you go over your data limit the following month. After that, anything in your bank vanishes and is replaced by the unused data (if any) of the most recent month. But most data rollover plans don't place a time limit on it.

Data banking and data rollover both require an unbroken service with your provider. If you break up with your telco, downgrade your plan, change the type of plan you have (e.g. move from postpaid to prepaid) or miss a prepaid recharge, all your banked data is forfeit. Upgrading to a more expensive plan of the same type is usually fine.

For postpaid plans, it's not too hard to keep your banked data safe because, even if you accidentally pay a bill slightly late, your service hasn't been cut off at any point.

Prepaid plans are different. In most cases, your banked data will vanish if you leave any gap between recharges. This is one reason why opting for auto-recharges is a good idea, if data banking is something you value.

Is data banking worth it?


There are a few situations where data banking can be worth seeking out. But it also has a big drawback.

If your data needs vary month to month or you like to have a little buffer, getting a plan with data rollover can reduce the risk of excess fees and even mean you pay less per month for your plan.

If your provider lets you change to a cheaper plan without losing your banked data, it can also let you experiment with just how much data you need.

Having a bit of a buffer can also be handy in emergencies – though these situations are rare and, in many of them, a cheap data add-on pack might do the trick.

Expert tip: Save by switching to a cheaper plan with data banking

"I know that like the average Australian I use between 10 and 12GB of data per month. So, I switched from a 20GB unlimited data plan to a cheaper 12GB plan with data rollover.

The first few months I did need to be careful to manage my data so that the bank could build up but now I have a neat little cache of extra data to tap into. Best of all I'm not paying for data I don't need."

Dylan Crismale, Digital Content Editor

But building a personal hoard of banked data can be a detriment because it makes you feel tied to your provider – after all, you don't want to lose all that banked data you've accrued.

Except, if you think about it, that data has zero value if you're never going to use it. So by sticking with a provider or plan you're not happy with, especially if the alternative is paying less per month, that banked data's illusory value is actually doing you a disservice. If this sounds like you, it could be a good idea to bite the bullet and switch mobile plans anyway.
