J’ai un tuyau important pour vous a propos de quelle type de carte pre-paid d’acheter/utilise pour les mobiles:
c’est important de savoir que Telstra et Optus sont la plus fort, plus connu, et marche le plus bon (les ‘l’antennes grands’/les tours pour la plupart – ou peut etre tout les antennes – sont de Telstra) – c’est a dire que tout les autres fonctionne possiblement un peu faible (ou TRES faible) hors des centre villes comme Sydney et Melbourne – donc, si on voyage dehors la region CBD, il y aura des problemes de ‘reception’/ signal du portable.
Dans les 2 semaines passees, j’ai rencontre deux personnes francais a Victoria qui ont chaqun un carte prepaid qui etait pas avec Telstra – et les deux ont les memes problemes – signal d’accord a Melbourne, mais pas de tout de signal sur la great ocean road, ou les petits cites, juste les cites principales a fonctionne ok – et personne a dit a eux dans le magasin ou ils ont demande une carte prepaid que quelques fonctionne actuellement vraiment plus bon que les autres….
English version (much simpler, especially if you can’t read my French version, which looks confusing even to me!)
What I mean to say, is that when you arrive in Australia and go to a shop to buy a pre-paid card/recharge for your mobile phone, you can’t always depend on the staff in the shop to sell you the best one with the best network coverage – Telstra has the towers and a huge share of the market, along with Optus – and not necessarily because they have better rates or better deals, but also because with the smaller companies in Oz (or even just ANY of the others), you can’t be certain of getting a reception once you leave Melbourne for a smaller city or town.
Two different French people who visited me in the last few weeks had bought a non-Telstra or non optus recharge(they bought one of a big company well known in Europe and elsewhere) and over many days, had only managed to be able to use their phone in Melbourne and one or two other places….otherwise, they had no signal and couldn’t use their phone at all.
(You can send me an MP if you really want to know which provider’s service hardly worked at all – same one in both cases – I don’t want to be a bad advertisement for them when there are probably many other well known mobile companies that also don’t function well here)
