From today, regional customers stand to save hundreds of dollars from the telco's expansion.
In what should be seen as a huge boost to competition in the mobile market across regional Australia, TPG Telecom, the owners of the Vodafone network, have today switched on a huge expansion of its coverage, lifting from 95.4 per cent of the population to 98.4 per cent.
Originally, TPG had hoped to do this deal with Telstra but that was knocked back by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission. Vodafone will offer extensive discount deals with $10 off most plans, while other telcos on the Vodafone network, such as Kogan Mobile, will also take advantage of the network changes for their customers.Trevor Long makes a call using the Vodafone network in a remote area of NSW previously without service on that network.
