Answer 1

Um this is the Australian section.  You could try the New Zealand section. But the internet in Australia has them to, so its probably to make more money

Answer 2

For Australia...

I just checked on the "unlimited usage" plans, available in QLD, and found 59 separate plans starting at $54.95

However, I prefer the plans with limits as it saves me money, not having to pay for something I don't need.

10 Gb per month for $45 at 1512k speed does me better than unlimited but for more money.

You can keep an eye on what you use. If you don't know how ask your provider. They usually slow you down when you ar near the limit. It depends on what plan your on. how much you pay
