MyRepublic's new SIM-only Value plan comes with unlimited data but throttles you after 7GB

MyRepublic has a new SIM-only plan for customers that comes with 7GB of data, 1,000 minutes of talk time, and 1,000 free incoming calls, that costs $18 a month.

Dubbed the Value plan, after the 7GB of data is fully utilised, subscribers still have access to data but speeds will be throttled under fair usage policy guidelines. They will not be charged for excess data use.

According to MyRepublic, after the 7GB of data is exhausted, users will see their data speeds throttled to between 384Kbps to 1.2Mbps until the data allowance refreshes the next billing cycle.

If you need full LTE speeds, additional data can be purchased through the telco as a one-off or monthly add-on.

For users who need more data, the Power mobile plan launched in November last year has been upgraded to offer users 30GB of data per month for $24.
