Service has no option of no contract or contracted, but hardware can be placed on mobile repayment plan for period of 12, 18, 24 months for non contract users.
As this service operates on the Vodafone mobile network, you are allocated a new mobile phone number, or you can port a existing number in. Standard services like voicemail, SMS at 25c per message and calls at 1c per second with 20c flag fall are available as part of the data subscription.
You may have a voice and data service on the one sim card/number, but it can not be a capped mobile plan e.g $79 super /$149 mega cap on the same sim card with a data bundle, as 3G/GPRS is already included in the caps at a rate of $1 per 5 minutes unlimited data.
