Data Rollover

Some of our Plans are eligible to rollover unused data allowance to your next recharge period. Check our Critical Information Summaries to confirm eligibility.

When will my data rollover?

If your current plan is eligible for data rollover and you renew the same plan by recharging within 24 hours of it expiring, your data will rollover (how much will depend on your specific plans rules).

What happens if I change plans?

If you are changing plans, you may be eligible to rollover your data.

Data will rollover when you change plans within 24 hours of your previous plans expiry when the following occurs:

• Your new plan is within the same plan group (e.g. Mobile Plan to Mobile Plan), and;
• The new plan is of a higher value than your current plan (e.g. $25 Mobile Plan to $35 Mobile Plan).

If you are on a Family Plan, please note that you are not able to change to another Family Plan.

How much data can I rollover?

If your eligible recharge is on a Mobile Plan, Family Plan or 1 Year Super Pack, all you unused data will rollover.

If your eligible recharge is on Data Plan, the amount you can rollover is determined by your Data Plan, if you have more data that your plans rollover allowance the additional data will not rollover and will be forfeited.

How does data rollover work?

If your recharge is eligible and you are able to rollover unused data, your plan will have a data balance linked to your current plans allowanced and a data rollover balance which contains the data you have rolled over.

When using data, your plans allowance is used first and if this has been exhausted you will then consume data from your data rollover balance.

If you have data rollover and your next recharge is not eligible for data rollover, all unused data on your service will be forfeited.

When will my data not rollover?

Your data will not rollover when the following occurs:

• Your recharge occurs 24 hours or more after your current plans expiry;
• If you move to a different type of plan (e.g. a Mobile Plan to a Super Pack), your data will not rollover, even if the new plan value is higher.
• If you move to a lower value plan (e.g. $35 Mobile Plan to $25 Mobile Plan), you data will not rollover, even though you are changing plans within the same plan group.

Mobile Plan Data Top Ups

You can purchase a 1GB Data Top Up for $10 or a 3GB Data Top Up for $15.

You can purchase a Data Top Up at any time as long as the maximum additional data at any one time does not exceed 40GB above your included data allowance. Any Data Top Up you purchase will expire at the same time as your Mobile Plan, regardless of when you purchased it so please refer to the information displayed when you select the Data Top Up for purchase as this will tell you how long you have left to use your Data Top Up. Unused Data Top Up may qualify for rollover.

Data is charged per 1KB which means the minimum amount of data you'll consume in each data session is 1KB.

Once you have used up your Data Top Up, you can choose to purchase another Data Top Up or you can continue to use data on your phone provided you have Pay As You Go credit on your service. Data will then be charged at 5c per MB.

Super Pack Data Top Ups

The Super Pack Data Top Ups give you extra data to use should you need it. You can choose from 3 Data Top Ups:

I've used all my Family Plan data, can I add more?

If you have a Family Plan and you need some extra data, you can purchase a Data Top Up at any time. It means that you can buy extra data at great rates if you need it, without paying upfront for something you don’t need.

You can add 3GB of data for $15 up to a maximum of 40GB above your included data allowance at any one time. Remember that any Data Top Up you purchase will expire at the same time as your Family Plan but may be eligible for rollover if the rollover criteria is met.

Remember, that the data you add to your Family Plan by purchasing a Data Top Up will be shared across all of the services on the Family Plan (subject to any limits the Owner may have set).

What is Auto Recharge?

Auto Recharge automatically recharges the same Mobile Plan, Family Plan, Data Plan or Super Pack when it expires. We'll send you an SMS and email to let you know we've renewed your plan.

Payment methods

You must have a valid Visa Card, Mastercard or PayPal payment method stored on your account.

You can add or update payment methods within your MyALDImobile online account or via the App. You can also enable or disable the Auto Recharge function there.

Timing

Auto Recharges commence just after midnight on the day your recharge expires. Recharges are processed in batches and it generally takes 3-4 hours for the entire batch to complete. 

It's important to have PAYG credit or you may find yourself without outgoing services while the batch process runs. If you use your PAYG credit during this time all charges are valid, and we will not refund the credit you have used.

If you are not comfortable using PAYG credit while the batch process runs it is recommended that you recharge manually instead.

What removes Auto Recharge?

There are few transactions that will automatically remove Auto Recharge and require you to re-enable it. 

• Manual recharges
• If you perform a manual recharge whilst Auto Recharge is active, your Auto Recharge status will be removed.
• You will need to turn your Auto Recharge back on if you wish to continue using Auto Recharge
• Changing plans
• If you have Auto Recharge setup on one of your numbers, and you change that number to a different plan, your Auto Recharge status will be removed.
• You will need to turn your Auto Recharge back on if you wish to continue using Auto Recharge

Failures

There are several reasons why an Auto Recharge may fail:

1. Expired credit card – ensure that your credit card details are current
2. Credit card not on file – ensure that you register your credit card for payment
3. Change of bank account – you may have changed banks or opened a new account
4. Insufficient funds – there are not enough funds in your bank account to cover the recharge amount

In these events you shall be notified by SMS on the number registered to your service.

Auto Recharge app modal 2

Auto Recharge automatically recharges the same Mobile, Family, Data or Super Pack plan when it expires against a valid, stored payment method. The batching process takes up to 4 hours and during this time you may be without outgoing services if you don't have a PAYG credit balance. We'll send you a notification once complete or if there is a failure. Changing or manually recharging plans resets the Auto Recharge setting.

▲ Manual recharges

If you make a manual recharge when Auto Recharge is enabled then manual recharge will become the default setting. You will need to activate Auto Recharge thereafter if you wish the process to be automated again in future.

▲ Changing plans

If you already have Auto Recharge activated on a current plan, and are changing to a new one, it does not automatically transfer to your new plan. You MUST set up Auto Recharge on your new plan.

1. Expired credit card – ensure that your credit card details are current
2. Credit card not on file – ensure that you register your credit card for payment

4. Insufficient funds – there are not enough funds in your bank account to cover the recharge amount

November 2024 - January 2025 double data

Services activated on all 5G plans between 8 November 2024 and 31 January 2025 will receive double data on their first 3 eligible recharges. This double data will appear in your data rollover balance.

Who is eligible?
Any new ALDImobile service that was activated from 8 November 2024 and 31 January 2025.

Which plans are eligible?

How do I claim my double data?
When you perform an eligible recharge, double data will be automatically added to your data rollover balance.

What is an eligible recharge?
An eligible recharge is a recharge that meets the following criteria:

• Is a recharge for an eligible plan
• Is performed within 24 hours of the expiration of any previous recharge
• Must occur consecutively, and can only occur a maximum of 3 times

Do I need to recharge on the same plan to continue to get the double data?

• You can perform an eligible recharge to any of the eligible plans above and you will receive the double data associated with that plan.
• However, if you ever perform a recharge to a lower value plan than your current plan, you will lose your current data rollover balance.
• Also, if you move from an eligible to an ineligible plan, you will no longer receive double data - even if you eventually move back to an eligible plan.

What do I do if I didn't get my double data?
If you believe you should be eligible for this offer, but cannot see double data added to your rollover balance, send us an eSupport message from your My ALDImobile account and we'll get right back to you.
