Optus is now the only major ISP in Australia to allow customers on monthly plans to 'rollover' any unused internet hours by giving them up to three months to use their included monthly hours.

OptusNet Rollover is similar to the mobile rollover initiative which sets Optus Mobile apart from other carriers.

Adrian Chamberlain, Managing Director Consumer & Multimedia said OptusNet Rollover is a win for customers as they will not lose their unused hours at the end of the month.

"We understand that our customers' internet use may vary from month to month. So, if they don't use all their included hours each month, why should they lose them. That's why we've introduced rollover hours," Mr Chamberlain said.

"For example, if you get the NetRollover 120 plan, go on holidays and use only 80 hours in one month, you won't lose out. You can now rollover your unused 40 hours for another month - giving you 160 internet hours to use in the next two months."

"All new and existing customers on eligible plans will automatically receive OptusNet Rollover," he said

Mr Chamberlain said Optus would continue to deliver innovative offers and pricing that deliver value.

In addition, OptusNet has changed the names of its plans so customers can easily identify which plans are eligible for rollover and the number of hours included in each plan.

OptusNet is powered by Excite Australia.

OptusNet goes the extra mile to unlock the potential of the web.
