Coverage

You need to consider the type of coverage you want from your phone service. In certain areas, some services work better than others. Consider whether you want to use your phone mainly in the metropolitan area or whether you need to be able to access country and remote rural areas as well. Interstate and overseas considerations may also be important. Don't just rely on the dealer to tell you about coverage. Ask family or friends who already have a phone.

Whatever coverage you decide, make sure you check the mobile service contract to ensure that it covers your local area and the areas you may be travelling to on a regular basis.
