IIRC no DD but you can register a credit or debt card with them and
topup when needed via their helpline. Also don't expect rival
supermarkets to accept the topup swipe card.

At the moment if you topup instore or use the helpline you get 10%
extra, not sure if this will be carried forward to the new price plan.

Standard 180 days without a chargeable call or topping up before
suspension/disconnection, if reconnecting after
suspension/disconnection then any credit that was on the account will
be reapplied however they cannot guarantee the phone number will be
the same.
