OPTUS IS OFFERING EVEN MORE DATA WITH SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 AND GALAXY S6 EDGE PRE-ORDERS

Starting at 5pm today, Optus is offering customers a whopping 6GB[1] of data per month on selected plans, when they pre-order the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S6 or the Galaxy S6 edge online.

We’ve struck data

Customers who pre-order the 32GB Samsung Galaxy S6 on an $80 My Plan Plus with $0 monthly handset repayments over 24 months (minimum total cost $1920) or the 32GB Galaxy S6 edge on an $80 My Plan Plus with $5 monthly handset repayments over 24 months (minimum total cost $2040), will get a massive 6GB of data to use each month within Australia.

Ben White, Vice President of Mobile Marketing, Optus, said, “We have packed our plans to the brim with data giving customers plenty of freedom to enjoy their new phone however they like. Streaming your favourite band’s latest songs, sharing your holiday snaps on social media or getting your daily cat video fix; it’s all possible with 6GB.”

But wait, there’s more

Not only is Optus offering customers massive amounts of data, we are also giving them access to a wide range of entertainment and the freedom to watch whenever they want with superfast speeds to stream all their favourite shows.

Customers who pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 edge with Optus on a 24 month contract with a $60 per month or above plan, will receive six months of Netflix[2] on us (data usage excluded). Get access to a range of great TV shows and movies in one place, ready to be streamed whenever the mood strikes.

“A Netflix subscription brings a world of entertainment right to your fingertips. An entertaining morning bus ride with House of Cards, or silence from the back seat on a family trip thanks to Frozen? It’s all possible with Optus. And on our 4G Plus network with a faster internet experience, better coverage and smoother streaming, we have everything customers want to make their Samsung phone their one stop entertainment shop,” said Mr. White.

For your favourite show, you may just need a bigger screen, and Optus understands that. So why not share your data with your tablet? For a one-off $5 set-up fee per device customers can get the most out of their mobile plan's data by sharing it with up to five mobile broadband devices, such as a SIM-ready tablet, pocket Wi-Fi or USB modem.
