Live Connected plans have been upgraded to faster 4G services, but now cost a fair bit more too.
The plans keep the same basic structure: four plan buckets titled Small, Medium, Large and X-Large. This is basically all that remains the same, with each of the plans taking a hit in either price or inclusions.
The most expensive options are $10 each more expensive than before the price adjustment, with very similar inclusions (slightly less included calling value on the Large plan).
The Small plan takes the biggest hit in value though, down from $500 included value for calls and messages, to just $50. The plan is also $0.90 more expensive each month. This equates to 23 standard 2-minute calls on the new plan compared with 147 calls on the old. There is also a dramatic drop in data; down from 1GB to just 100MB.

Live Connected was purchased by rival MVNO Vaya at the beginning of June. The shift to 4G for it mobile plans brings it in line with other plans offered by Vaya, though the plans of its parent company are considerably cheaper.
