Optus falls in line with ACCC mandate; offers 2 year warranties for phones
After Vodafone and Telstra, it is now Optus’ turn to offer a 24 month warranty on mobile phones bought on contract through them. All phones including Apple iPhone will be covered. However only new contracts will be covered by the warranties, existing users will not benefit from the cover.
