You can opt for a monthly subscription, a 12 month subscription, or a day pass and we will charge you the applicable fee, as advised to you on your handset before you subscribe for your use of the Whereis Navigator service. There will be additional charges for any other mobile or data plan that you connect to your Capable Device. We will not charge you data charges for your use of the Whereis Navigator service. If you opt for a 12 month subscription, then at the end of your subscription period, unless you cancel your subscription, you will be automatically rolled onto a monthly subscription and charged the applicable monthly subscription fee.

What is GPRS?
GPRS provides you with packet switched data capabilities over the GSM network.
Availability
You can use GPRS if you are a post-paid or pre-paid GSM, 3G or Next G customer with a compatible handset configured for GPRS.
BigPond Mobile Services (previously known as Telstra Active or WAP) and IP WAN terms
The BigPond Mobile Services terms below in this Part also apply to BigPond Mobile Services data usage using the GPRS network to support the BigPond Mobile Services content service. The IP WAN terms set out in the IP Solutions section of Our Customer Terms apply to IP WAN calls over the GPRS, 3G and Next G networks.
Handsets or devices
You can only use a handset or device which is approved by us as suitable to access the GPRS network. Some handsets, and in particular pre-paid handsets sold by Telstra, are locked to the Telstra network. Such handsets or devices are programmed to operate only with a Telstra SIM card. You must pay us a $50 re-programming fee if you wish to use a locked GPRS pre-paid handset on another network. We make no promises about the performance or suitability of your GPRS handset or device on another phone company’s network.
