    I also got this email from PricePal…

  • iamtezr on 02/06/2015 - 15:36

    received the same email but on the site it only says 10% off..

    http://pricepal.com.au/Telstra-Pre-Paid

    hrmm…

  • Ebaygiftcards on 02/06/2015 - 15:38

    When you click on the 'Get Cashback' link in the email, where does it take you to?

    • pyramid on 02/06/2015 - 15:41

      it takes to link that iamtezr has pasted above.

    • iamtezr on 02/06/2015 - 15:43

      It takes you straight to the Telstra website.
      But it does say 'redirecting to store. You're on your way to earning "10.00% cashback'

      Have emailed Pricepal to confirm. Will keep everyone posted once i get a response.

    • iamtezr on 02/06/2015 - 15:48

      Going through cashreward showing the $30 starter kit as $30 not $15. hrmm..
      Going through Pricepal shows the $30 starter kit as 50% off = $15

      Anyone else seeing this as well?

  • congo on 02/06/2015 - 15:45

    is it 10% or $10 cashback?

    • pyramid on 02/06/2015 - 15:48

      Email says $10 and pricepal website says 10%. But in either case, starter pack is still $15.

    this is the link to cashrewards for the $15 starter pack with the $10 cashback http://www.cashrewards.com.au/coupons/save-50-on-telstra-30-…

  • Ebaygiftcards on 02/06/2015 - 15:51

    How much data do you get on the starter kit? I remember it used to be 3gigs, but I think Telstra has reduced that.

    • nocure on 02/06/2015 - 16:03

      You have to activate it as data and you should get $30 worth which is 3gb. CMIIW

    How come in the picture of the sim pack it says and description it says "$15 Pre-Paid SIM Starter Kit", this is different to the normal $30 pack isn't it?

    • klaw81 on 02/06/2015 - 16:07

      I agree that the picture is weird - it should say $30. But it clearly states that $30 credit is included for that price, and the invoice says $30 minus a 50% discount.

      • samlor on 02/06/2015 - 16:15

        Noticed it too but couldn't be bothered to raise it. And, I have since received the $30 kit from the other earlier cash rewards deal, there is no such thing as $15 kit.

          The image is different because we're linking through to a bespoke 50% off deal page, which is promoting the $15 for $30 offer :)

    Cashback is $10 - http://pricepal.com.au/Telstra-Pre-Paid, sorry for the confusion.

    • ethanol on 02/06/2015 - 16:11

      When does cashback get paid? After order or after activation of the SIM?

      • Lukian on 02/06/2015 - 16:26

        Should be up to 7 days after order according to the fine print.

        • acai on 02/06/2015 - 16:35

          That's for it to get recorded not paid.

          For payment it says:
          "Confirmation and payment of cashback takes up to 90 days (to allow for the return period of goods to pass)"

          Hi ethanol, cashback is tracked on purchase of the SIM Starter Kit, not activation. thanks. The actual payment of cashback will follow the usual cashback payment schedule (i.e. once PricePal receives the commission, we'll pay the cashback). thanks

          @PricePalTeam:
          Can more than 1 starter pack be purchased to benefit from the $10 cashback on each transaction?

          @iamtezr: As long as you're allowed to purchase more than one starter pack from the Telstra website (which it seems you are), then we aren't aware of any reason why you wouldn't received $10 cashback each order.

        • youknow on 03/06/2015 - 22:57

          @PricePalTeam: Hi PricePalTeam. Does that mean that I should see the $10 in the recorded area immediately after purchase, because I completed my purchase tonight, and it still shows $0 recorded.

        • pyramid on 03/06/2015 - 22:59
          +1

          @youknow: From pricepal website: - You will receive an email from PricePal to advise your cashback has been recorded, usually within 24 hours of your purchase (but it may take up to 7 days)

        • youknow on 03/06/2015 - 23:00

          @cniminc: Ta :)

          @youknow: Transactions aren't recorded instantly, they're usually picked up within 24 hours, as there is a delay between when you make the purchase and when the merchant lets us know you made the purchase. They usually report to us the next day, but worst case is up to 7 days. Once it is recorded, you'll receive a confirmation email letting you know that the transaction has been tracked (if you don't receive one within 7 days, let us know and we'll look into it for you)

        • youknow on 03/06/2015 - 23:03

          @PricePalTeam: Thanks pricepalteam. Seeing as you're super responsive tonight… If I have the $20 unclaimed buddy bonus, and you pay the $10 cash back, does that mean that the cash back is effectively doubled (to $20 in this instance), leaving $10 unclaimed buddy bonus? I hope that made sense.

      Yes

      • mr kindface on 02/06/2015 - 18:52

          Yes you can, Upto a max purchase of $20 per transaction. Then you can use all the other cap credit as per normal.

    Can I buy this and transfer the credit to my existing Telstra pre paid..if so, how ?

    • ihavok on 02/06/2015 - 19:58

      Activate the new service and use Credit Me2U. Daily restrictions apply.

      Note that you can only transfer the core $30 (well most of it) and none of the bonuses (i.e. talk time / data).

      • bkoolrocks on 02/06/2015 - 20:08

        Thanks for the reply.. I'm using long expiry one in my existing sim..how would this 30$ appear once I transfer it..

        • WhyAmICommenting on 02/06/2015 - 20:44

          as $29 of real credit (you lose 0.75 of a dollar doing three x credit me2u)

    Thanks OP.
    Altough after the purchase process on the Telstra site, their section "What's next" says "Your new SIM card doesn't include any credit so after it's activated you need to recharge it before using the service", which sounds like there is no initial credit. I hope I put it through right? Bought through the cash rewards links.

  • Dr Techno on 02/06/2015 - 20:25

    Can you use this credit to unlock a nokia 530 phone. Assuming you can transfer credit between accounts.

    • aussie28 on 02/06/2015 - 21:25

      Yes, It can be used to unlock a phone

  • CyberMurning on 02/06/2015 - 20:33

    i wanted to use as google play credit but sees the idea to swap sims are a bit troublesome.
    yes i have google reward

    • WhyAmICommenting on 02/06/2015 - 20:45

      Do you have two phones? Doesn't matter how old. Can transfer via #111# option 1, 6 ($10 at a time, $0.25 fee)

      • CyberMurning on 02/06/2015 - 20:46

        i have other phones but my main phone is with tpg. can i transfer?

        • WhyAmICommenting on 02/06/2015 - 20:49

          Easiest thing would be to have a super cheap Telstra-unlocked android phone you use the "junk" sims on just to buy from the play store (not sure if it will let you buy any incompatible software with the cheap phone though)

        • Lukian on 03/06/2015 - 08:24

          @spillmill: once you've enabled carrier billing for the sim, you can then use a beefier tablet (or even the nexus player!) to pay for software.

  • WhyAmICommenting on 02/06/2015 - 20:46

    Good deal but didn't work for me, maybe due to having way more than 5 sims active.

  • bkoolrocks on 02/06/2015 - 21:25

      It will track within 7 days

  • roughana on 02/06/2015 - 21:29

    I bought one through PricePal and one through CashRewards with same address and phone number and credit card details.
    I just received a text saying my order had been stopped. I assume because they think it is a duplicate.
    Telstra Control Centre is only open during business hours, so I have to wait until tomorrow to resolve it.

        • stalker878 on 02/06/2015 - 23:25

          reading pricepal's terms for this bonus..

          i believe that only the referee gets the $20 bonus not both.
          and only if the referee gets $20 cash back too.
          meaning they will match your cashback dollar for dollar.

          this all only applies to the referee, not his friend.

        • pyramid on 02/06/2015 - 23:27

          @stalker878:
          No. Both gets $20.
          From here: https://pricepal.com.au/account/buddy-bonus
          Refer a friend for $20 And your friend gets $20 too!
          After your friend joins, we'll pay you a bonus $20 when you earn $20 cashback

    Let me get this straight..
    so if you get all the combination of deals right via PricePal, which are…

    • 50% off $30 Telstra Pre-Paid SIM Card ($15)
    • $10 Cashback from PricePal (-$10)
    • $20 Referral bonus for 48 hours (-$20)

    You will get it for a net price of -$15?

    Alternatively, you via CashRewards and get it with the following combinations..

    • 50% off $30 Telstra Pre-Paid SIM Card ($15)
    • $12 Cashback from CashRewards (-$12)

    You will get it for a net price of $3?

    • Lukian on 03/06/2015 - 08:28

      We shall see whether Telstra care about people ordering 5+
      You already need a different credit/debit card per 3 you order (or a chat with Telstra to allow unlimited transactions, if their billing platform supports it).

      No rep has confirmed multiple cashbacks either, but there is also no fine print saying "limit 1".

        Pricepal rep has replied back :)

  • pyramid on 03/06/2015 - 10:08

    So its $10 cashback for each starter pack or each order?
