Good News


In the last blog post we talked about how Stephen Conroy had hit some hurdles in trying to lower the rates of International Roaming. Well we have a solution, its our roaming sim, and instead of paying $4 for that minute you're only going to pay .99c. This sim card has been designed for the purpose of saving money whilst your travlling the globe and it works in 130 different countries as well so odds are good that it's going to work great for you! For more information check out the Back Chat Mobile site for information. Also take a look at the new Nokia N96 it makes a great travel companion with its 5 megapixel camera and 16gb of internal memory, it's a cheaper iPhone

Global roaming plans go awry

Well, Stephen Conroy's plan's for delivering cheaper roaming sim costs have gone awry due to stumbles in regulatory hurdles.

In its submission to a parliamentary inquiry the consumer watchdog has described high international mobile roaming charges for Australians as an "intractable problem". KPMG recently released a study that showed Australian's were being charged up to 4$ a minute during a call.
