100special

First of all, Go to MoneyBackCo and join the membership. After that login to your account and search "3 mobile", and then select the deal "3 mobile $64/7.5%", so thant you will get $64 cashback for signing up the $29 Cap Plan online .Click on the link provided and you will be redirected to the 3 online store.

Copy and paste the following URL to your browser

and sign up for the sim only $29cap. Use the promotional code "100special" at the checkout, and you will get $100 credit on your first bill.

After you got your sim card delivered by Australian Express, send me an email at [email protected] and ask me for a referral code, and then Call 3 Customer Care 133320 and tell them your were referred by a friend and give them the referral code, and you will get $25 on your next bill. So there will be $125 credit on you first bill, and if you didn't go over the cap limit, you could enjoy 4 months free 3 mobile service with $150 worth of calls and 200 minutes free 3 to 3 calls. On the 4th month, you will still have $9 credit on your bill, you can stay with them if you were happy with their service or you can just cancel the service and walk away without paying any cancellation fee.

That's another reason why it's good to be 3.

        • GreenGuava on 17/04/2009 - 23:41

          Ahh okay. In that case, it would be good for those who take up this offer to give back and offer their details so others can get the $25 referral credit.

    Hey all, I am thinking of switching to 3, and unfortunately my current phone is not 3G compatible :( which means I need to get a new handset from 3. But as I comparing the plan between the pre-paid $29 cap and the regular $29 plan which requires 2 year contract, why is it that the pre-paid cap gives you upto 150MB of data access, but not the post-paid $29 plan?

    If I were to sign of to this pre-paid $29 cap, which phone should I get? or is that another place with a better price to get buy the handset than directly from 3?

  • pmmehta22 on 18/04/2009 - 10:00

    Hi there, I am already with 3 on $29 cap (24 months contract). Am I still eligible for this offer as I wont mind getting another SIM? and if yes, am I eligible for referal credit as well?

    • steven823 on 18/04/2009 - 12:47

      Yes for the offer. No for the referral credit.

      • pmmehta22 on 18/04/2009 - 14:36

        Thanks Steven, so does that mean I dont need to wait till Sudney as I wont be getting referral credit? and as you mentioned, i will be eligible for $64 cash back scheme as well?

  • nemesis on 18/04/2009 - 10:46

    Voting this down, because I'm sick of how Three never actually has the detailed inclusions or terms and conditions on their website.

    Example: Liked site says "Choose how to use your Cap - calls, SMS or Mobile Internet". I can guarantee they'll slap you for $1.65/MB over and above your cap if you stray outside a "Three Broadband Zone" — even though it's not actually written anywhere that page (or the linked T&C).

  • ricochet on 18/04/2009 - 10:47

    This sounds fantastic - 3 just announced that they now do roaming onto Telstra's NextG network, and I was interested to get exactly this plan to test out how the coverage works around my house and trip to work to make sure I wasn't going to roam unnecessarily during normal use.

    Nice to have the backup of extended NextG coverage for long trips though, even if they do slug you with 50c per MB for data - probably worth it for the free extended phone/sms cover.

    Will definitely give this a go, thanks Steven823 and everyone else who's offered a referral!

  • Bowchkawowow on 18/04/2009 - 10:57

    hey Steven could you find a detailed Terms and Conditions of that plan, and links it to us to it. That would be awesome thx shane.

    • steven823 on 18/04/2009 - 12:48

      Terms and Conditions are available at the checkout.

  • seijai on 18/04/2009 - 10:57

    Couldnt find the "3 mobile $24" deal in the moneybackco website. Only found "3 mobile $64" cap plan. But that is only with plan refund. Where is the one you are referring to???

    • steven823 on 18/04/2009 - 12:49

      It has changed to $64 cashback for every online sale of the $29 Cap Plan.

  • ricochet on 18/04/2009 - 10:58

    One more thing - I'm pretty sure that when you sign up for that "Sim Free" plan on the $29 cap, you actually get another $5 credit per month since you've brought your own mobile (it's $10 credit for the 49 cap and above).

    So actually I believe for this deal where you'll have $125 free credit, you can get 5 months of free usage @ $24 per month if you don't exceed the cap and still have $5 to spare.

    I was actually just in the 3 store asking about this plan with a BYO mobile on Thursday and that was the answer I got.

  • mrhappy on 18/04/2009 - 11:10

    I just gave 3 Customer Care a call to clarify about the $100 credit offer. I was told that the code specifically states that the credit will be applied on my first bill so I have to use up all the $29 cap limit plus $100 credit worth of calls on my first month. From the 2nd month onwards, the account will revert back to the normal $29 cap, the $100 credit will not be rolled out to subsequent months even if I did not go over my $29 cap limit on my 1st month.
    He also suggested that I take up the Internet offer of $5 credit (for $29 cap) or $10 credit (for $49 cap) every month because that would reduce the amount I will need to pay ie: $24 instead of $29/month
    So what I got out of it is we can only have a maximum of $29 cap+$100 code +$25 referral to use on the 1st month only after which a minimum payment of $29/month is required unless we cancel the contract
    Does anyone have any ideas whether the $100 credit will be rolled out?
    Just need a confirmation from someone that has used the $100 code on any of their 3 contract

    • Nazrath on 18/04/2009 - 12:01
      +2

      Nonsense. The credit will be applied during the first month and brought forward to the subsequent months. Where there is a huge potential of viewers able to read your post, please DISREGARD MrHappy's comment as it is simply untrue I can testify that the credit WILL BE rolled over.

  • mrhappy on 18/04/2009 - 11:13

    Ricochet: The $5/$10 credit disappears when you add any new $100 codes in. I guess it's an either or choice
    They've fixed it now so no more credit on top of credit

  • mrhappy on 18/04/2009 - 11:19

    I think you only get 7.5% of the $29 cap as stated on the MoneyCo website instaed of $24

  • CATHY.CQ on 18/04/2009 - 11:38

    Im happy to get $25 off you and my bill, mail to [email protected] to get a code. thanks

  • ricochet on 18/04/2009 - 11:43

    Thanks mrhappy.

    I guess even if this is just a one month trial with $125 to use up and the opportunity to credit another 3 member with $25 and potentially get a little money back from MoneyCo then it's still a good deal if you wanted to test out 3's service. Seems like a win all round really

    • steven823 on 18/04/2009 - 12:57

      Mrhappy was wrong, the credit will be rolled over.

  • mrhappy on 18/04/2009 - 12:59

    Nazrath: It was just simply what I was told by the 3 operator. I was just passing on the info because I don't want anyone to get into troubles with their subsequent bills and come back to blame Stenven823 for posting this . I didn't mean to lie to anyone. If you can testify this, then it's good for everyone then. I would assume you have applied the $100 code before and the credit was rolled over

  • mrhappy on 18/04/2009 - 13:01

    Steven823: The 3 operator whom I talked to was wrong. I was just waiting for someone to confirm that the credit will be rolled over. Thanks

        • steven823 on 18/04/2009 - 14:57

          When you are signing up online, you will have to enter your credit card or bank account details to setup Direct Debit, as you have $100 credit on your account, they will not debit your credit card or bank account until the credit are used up.

    It might be a good idea for those who are offering their referral services to disguise their email addresses, as there is a risk your email address may get added to a spamlist if a spambot happens to trawl through OzBargain.

    For example, [email protected] could be disguised as name[at]domain.com or name[@]domain.com and so on.

    i was reading the referring term and cond.
    the bit which reads, excludes USIM- only connections.
    so does that mean neither would get refer credit?

    (sry don't know how to bold text)

    Referee means a person who receives a Personal Referral Invitation or a Business Referral Invitation and who:

    1. following a credit check (if applicable), is connected to at least one:
      1. post-paid cap or plan over 12 or 24 months under either a single Personal Account or single Business Account; or
      2. pre-paid plan under a single Personal Account ~~(Excludes USIM-only connections.~~~~ Pre-paid services not available under a Business Account);

    Dear Steven

    The information supplied on your application today has been submitted for a credit check.
    A credit check compares your information to statistical analysis, internal credit policies, debt risk, payment history, and handset limits.

    Unfortunately in this instance your application has not met 3 Credit policy requirements, and 3 is unable to offer you a post-paid service.

    Perhaps you would like to consider 3's prepaid services. There's no credit check and it's a great way to take advantage of 3's services.

    Please visit http://www.three.com.au/threestore/prepaidmobiles.xhtml to view our current range.

      I received that email as well and I'm an existing customer currently on a 24 month contract! I have always paid my bill on time and nothing has changed to my credit rating since I signed up with them a year ago.

        my order has been approved, but the cash back has been declined, maybe I'm the current customer of 3, not eligible for the cash back, good luck on you guys!
