A great network.
Staying connected is more important than ever. That's why Everyday Mobile from Woolworths uses the Telstra Wholesale Mobile Network. The Telstra Wholesale mobile coverage area reaches more than 98.8% of the Australian population and covers more than 1.7 million square kilometres of the Australian landmass. The service provides 5G coverage reaching more than 75% of the Australian population.
Telstra's 3G network has now closed.
Ensure you have a 4G/VoLTE and/or 5G compatible device to use our service. For the minimum requirements, view our device guidelines.
In line with new legal requirements, certain phones will be blocked from accessing the network. This means you will not be able to make/receive calls, send/receive SMS, use data and not be able to call 000 in case of an emergency. To stay connected, you will need a new 4G/5G compatible phone. You can learn more at https://amta.org.au/3g-closure/ and https://amta.org.au/3g-closure-buyers-guide/.
