Does TPG has a budget plan where it offers fixed broadband internet plus mobile internet connection in one cheap price?

 

i have a fixed broadband internet connection with TPG and with one govt requirement to use mobile phones to scan their QR CODES in this Covid crisis ...before entering any shops ...it is frustrating to not be able have any internet connection outside the house ...I am already paying a hefty price  for fixed broadband i dont think i can pay another bill for a mobile internet connection too...only to use it to scan covid QR Codes? ....this is crazy ....so my question is can TPG perhaps help with this with a new plan/ product offer like what i am suggesting above .anytime soon?   a lot of people are affected by this nonsense.these days you know  (Govt alwys assuming that everyone has mobile internet connection everywhere)

 

hope to hear some good news soon!!

 

PS....Is this the right site to post questons to TPG too? or Am I in the wrong place.......

pls let me know...

 

thanks

My wife who does not mind shopping during the pandemic uses free WiFi available at shopping centres fo scan the QR codes. If free WiFi is not available where you are going, perhaps you could turn on data on your mobile phone just for the QR? (But make sure you turn it off as soon as it is done! I have just reviewed usage on my mobile phone and discovered multiple instances of $$ spent on data that I have not knowingly/explicitly used!!)

Having said that, I, too, would be  interested with a plan that combines TPG Home Wireless Broadband with at least a PAYG phone service to replace the landline that comes with the NBN plan. One can hope!
