Crazy John’s seem to have made a major move in the low cost prepaid mobile market with the recent introduction of their Flat Chat prepaid mobile plan.
Crazy John’s is owned by the Vodafone/3 Group and it seems that this will be their key product range targeted at the low cost end of the market. The Flat Chat plan is cheap.
Call rate is 10c per minute and the flagfall is 30c. You also have access to 1c texts (up to 100 per day). So if you make a 2 minute call, you are up for just 50c. This is cheap and at the moment is sitting just behind Virgin’s Bean Counter. which has identical rates, although call rates are charged at 30 sec intervals instead of Crazy John’s 60c and Virgin’s flagfall is just 25c.
Its a great deal and the bonus of the 1c texts is really appealing for the school students who must sms each other about everything.
A $25 recharge will last for 25 days (Virgin’s lasts for 45 days), $35 for 35 days, $45 for 45 days and lasts $55 for 55 days.
Competition is good and healthy for everyone. Keep up the good work Crazy John’s, hope to see more from you soon.
