2G Services switch has started, don’t be caught out!

Don’t get caught out! Upgrade to 3G or 4G now.

2G Networks in Australia are being switched off. BLiNK's carrier, Optus, is switching exclusively to 3G and 4G and from the 1st August 2017, is shutting down its 2G network in QLD, VIC, NSW, SA and ACT. The switch-off has already taken effect in WA and NT earlier this year.

  • What will happen then?

    With the switch, you will have access to faster and reliable phone coverage Australia-wide. However, it also means that if you are still using a 2G device after the 1 August switch off, you will lose reception. Some older 3G devices will also be impacted.
