    Phone: Telstra is the best and great coverage but expensive / Optus is the direct competitor to Telstra but not as great with coverage but cost wise it’s cheaper / Vodafail is crap, avoid.
    Bank: Commbank has the best internet banking and app. Bigger branch numbers and accept Apple Pay.
    Australia is early adopter of card payment with Eftpos introduced decades ago, tap and go been around for 20years so Apple Pay and Google Pay is the current trend. No one swipe card anymore.
    NSW Opal card I usually pay with my Apple Watch, unless you use it often easier to use your bank card to tap or phone.

      That's spot on, and exactly what I'm trying to achieve! Migrating to another country is a huge adventure!

    Aussie here, I try to use cash as much as possible, it allows me to keep track of my spending much easier, although I do use my card and phone on occasions, but I rarely have my phone on me outside of work hours.

    Hi I am really enjoying your video channel. I am preparing to make the big leap from Minnesota USA to Melbourne. Looking for a flight to get down under to look for some housing and just a time to enjoy the country and familiarize myself with the culture. I am not a frequent flyer so I must admit I was a little shocked to see that the flight time would be just over 24 hours. I knew it would be long but the longest I have ever flown is 8-10 hours in military! Maybe that would be a good video, be prepared for long travels😊 Thank you again so mucho gracious! 🦘

      As a Melburnian I can confirm her information is very good. One thing I would say is our state capital cities have very good public transport ( particularly Melbourne - trams and trains, and Sydney- buses and trains) but if you are moving to a regional ( small) town you will be shocked at how bad public transport is. Likewise transport between our cities is exceptionally poor. We drive or fly. Nobody takes trains because our rail system is atrocious! I came here from the UK and had lived in Japan too and was stunned how far behind Australia is with intercity mass rapid transit options.

    • @Glenn-ei3xp

    Australia is not a totally cashless society. People will use contactless pay systems with their bank card (either plastic card or a card on their phone) most times but cash is still very common.

    Cashless society thing is overhyped. Spent 2 weeks there and paid primarily in cash, only rejected once. Bus/trains use a tag on/off card but you can top up the card with cash if you want.

      Hi, the information provided in this video is for residents - not tourists. There's no residency ID to collect. For this, you usually use your passport or driver's license.
