Ask the Melon

Does “Try Before You Buy” lock me into anything?

No, this is not a wedding. You’ll get everything for free, with no T’s&C’s. Once you’ve used them all, you’ll have to decide whether you really like us. Or not. But we’re not thinking about the “not” part.

Can I change my “Try Before You Buy” plan halfway through?

You can’t change this plan halfway through, but you can Build Your Own Plan which will kick in just as your free trial comes to an end.

Can I use “Try Before You Buy” more than once?

No, you only get one chance at this. but don’t worry, Melon lets you decide your next plan, so you can build one that works perfectly for you.

Where else can I use “Try Before You Buy”?

We know one thing for sure, DO NOT try it at a restaurant. We learnt that the hard way.

How does this Data and Voice Non-Expiry work?

As long as you have an active Melon subscription, you’ll never lose any of your Data or Voice Minutes. If you cancel your subscription, your Data and Voice allocation will expire after 32 days.
