Re: Australian sim cards
lol, They obviously telling you fibs. I have never once in my life paid to receive a text message or call. If it was true, I'd be screwd when ever I run out of credit.
The only case in which you would be charged to recieve a call here would be if you where on roaming from your overseas network.
Otherwise it's all free.

Re: Australian sim cards
hi
i agree with mikey.
i not had a prob with vodaphone - but if you buy direct from their shop tho they will charge you $10 lol - I bought mine from tandy for $2 and also got 10% off recharge - also recently been getting $20 credit extra so for $29 i get $150 credit
think you should buy here coz b4 you can use it, it needs to registered.
unfortunately the signal is bad in my new house so i think i may have to change
