ICT Project Services operates on part of the Telstra mobile network, with 4G coverage available to 97% of the Australian population and 3G coverage available to more than 98.8% of the population.

The mobile data speeds available to you will vary due to factors such as device capabilities, location, distance from the base station, local terrain, user numbers, hardware and software configuration, download source/upload destination and network management measures.

We recommend using devices that are unlocked and compatible with as many of the following bandwidths as possible to get the best experience from the network.

The bandwidths (or frequencies) used are outlined below.

  • Calls and 3G data use the 850Mhz bandwidth.
  • 4G data only uses 1800Mhz and/or 700Mhz and/or 2600Mhz bandwidths.

The bandwidths you connect to will depend on your location.

There may be a problem with Telstra’s network. To find out if your service is affected follow this link https://outages.telstra.com.au/. FYI Telstra repairs any faults and restores service during standard business hours (8.00am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday, excludes public holidays).

Yep! You can bring your phone number across to ICT Project Services if you’re moving from your current Australian mobile provider and you’re the account holder for your mobile service. We will need the current Account Number used by your old provider, this can generally be located on the front page of your latest bill.

You’ll also need to provide us with your current mobile number, and your date of birth and some ID.

If you are an existing ICTPS customer – Yes, we can assign you a new number; however we do not have control over what the new number would be. Please Contact us!

Definitely not. You’re not locked-in! We believe in freedom, not lock-in contracts!

With ICTPS there’s no tricky fine print print. Our plans are month to month and very simple to understand.

All plans are flexible and not contracted, the only commitment is that if hardware is supplied to you that the remaining cost of that hardware be paid out!

You can pay it off over 24 months while you are with us, or pay out any balance owing in full should you wish to leave ICTPS.

If you are experiencing issues with your device and it is less than 12 months old, then you will need to contact the manufacturer of the handset and go through the warranty process.

For more information, please refer to the manufacturer.

Knowing how much mobile data you need can be tricky without knowing how much you use – and while every session is different, it’s important that you understand how much data you could be using.

Radio Streaming
A radio stream can use approximately 2MB of data per minute, depending on the quality of the audio stream.

YouTube
The average YouTube video uses 4MB of data per minute on the default video quality (480p). You can change the video quality to increase or decrease your data consumption – remembering the better the quality, the more data will be used.

Google Maps
10 minutes will use approximately 6MB, however, this may vary depending on the size of the map. Longer distances will use more data as more information will be loaded. More data will be used when launching the app if you have any saved locations or routes.

Facebook
Depending on the type of content that appears in your newsfeed, Facebook will use roughly 1.5MB to 2.6MB per minute. Text and photo content will use less data than video streaming, and the quality of photos and videos will also have an impact.

Netflix
1 hour of Netflix on the default video quality can use 1GB of data (remember, that’s GB, not MB). You can change the video quality to increase or decrease your data consumption – remembering the better the quality, the more data will be used.

Apps and Games
Apps and games vary greatly in size and should be checked for exact details prior to downloading. Remember whilst Apps might be free (no $ value) through the App/Play Store, they do require mobile data to be downloaded to your device and may require mobile data to use them.

Music
Music tracks tend to be about 5MB each but can vary depending on the quality and length of the track. Using music streaming apps, such as Spotify, will also use data on adverts.

Web Browsing
Web browsing generally uses 10MB every 10 minutes. However, this varies depending on which websites you browse (e.g. an image- or video-heavy website will use more data). Whether or not you are using a mobile-friendly version of the website will also impact data consumption.

Email
Reading and replying to 200 emails is about 5MB. Emails with attachments will increase the amount of mobile data used.

If you decide to port your mobile number to ICT Project Services, your current mobile provider may charge you for leaving, like early termination payments. 

Please remember to keep your number active with your existing provider until the service transfer and number porting process to ICTPS has been completed. We will let you know when you should pop your new SIM in.
