$30 Pre-Paid SIM Starter Kit for $15 + $10 cashback from CashRewards here & free delivery.

Includes a single SIM in all sizes: Full Size, Micro and Nano

Enjoy!

MOD: PricePal is also offering the same $10 cashback for Telstra Prepaid SIM. See this merged comment. Basically

This deal is about Telstra $30 Prepaid SIM sold for $15
$10 cashback from affiliate network is available from either CashRewards or PricePal, independent from this deal.

Cashrewards has emailed me the receipt of the purchase however stating $8 cash back was processed. I guess it is a typo as I logged into my account and saw $10 cashback in my rewards balance.

    Oh really? Will have to topup my other card and try it tomorrow!
  - OptimisticPessimist on 04/08/2015 - 12:04
    
    Is it 3 per credit card, per day? or 3 max for any card regardless?
    Just tried to buy a 4th and got 'sorry' message and no email confirmation.
    - brisdaz on 13/08/2015 - 17:47
      
      I'd also like to know the answer to this question.
      
      What I can feedback is that I used one of my credit cards in the previous deal so it's at least once every three months: it may be more frequently reset to once every week or day?

AssociatedLolwutMikka @ Telstra on 03/08/2015 - 19:15

Does the cashback appear back in your back account as a credit? Curious as to how they provide the money back to you. Either way, bought, thanks OP.
- ExPrinceHairy on 03/08/2015 - 20:13

  Yeah, it appears as a credit in your CashRewards account which you can "cash out" to your nominated bank account (minimum cash out amount is $5).

After I enter the Home address, I can't go to next steps. Is anyone else facing the same issue??
netsurfer on 04/08/2015 - 00:58

There was a similar deal back in May. Just an FYI, I am still waiting for the cashback (Telstra yet to release the money).
- iamtezr on 04/08/2015 - 11:20
  
  Same here. Mine was back May as well. Just sent them an email asking what's happening.
  Also i checked my Pricepal account as well, which was during the same time and it shows Est. Payment Date: Sept.
  
  So yeah…
  
  Update: Sent Cashreward an email and they've updated my May transaction.
  Wooohooo!!
  Now i need to ask what's going on with my June transaction =\
OptimisticPessimist on 04/08/2015 - 01:17

First try purchasing it and got a 'Sorry' message, stating that my order can not be processed.
However I have received an email stating that my order has gone through, so unsure of which is the case.
I do have 16 prepaid accounts in total (2 of which are primary, the rest are slated for decommissioning)
- aimi on 04/08/2015 - 09:54
  
  Same here. The order failed but I got the email that it went through. I only have one account. I'm not sure whether my order went through now or not…
  - OptimisticPessimist on 05/08/2015 - 03:06
    
    Of the 6 purchases I made, Telstra has just sent me 4 email updates stating that they are on the way, which happen to be for the last 4 of the purchases. The first 2 received 'sorry' messages, but got a confirmation email though.
    Might have to contact Telstra about the first 2 and see what's up with them.
    - SsSsToCkY on 06/08/2015 - 14:15
      
      Had the same issue here. Hope you have a better time contacting Telstra than I do. It was like pulling teeth, but hopefully I'm getting a refund now.

"For security reasons, you'll need to take delivery of this order yourself, and show the same ID you used to order online." Yeah. Ill just wait at home for two days to sign.
- socceroo on 04/08/2015 - 10:25
  
  Yes I saw it in the receipt email too. Anyone who bought before can confirm? can family members sign for delivery cos I won't be home.
  - pyramid on 04/08/2015 - 10:28
    
    Last time, They din't allow my family member to sign and accept delivery.
  - iamtezr on 04/08/2015 - 11:03
    
    I was at work when the delivery came. My wife asked me to send her my drivers license otherwise the Toll guy wouldn't hand the parcel to her.
    
    Edit: This was with the last batch of offers.
    Also I think it depends on the driver as well.
- Kambo_Rambo on 04/08/2015 - 11:43
  
  So if you miss delivery you can just pick it up at the PO?

  Hi cniminc,
  
  Just wondering if the PricePal cashback is also paid once per checkout like CashRewards?
  
  i.e. can I purchase two or three sim cards and get $20 or $30 back?
  
  Thanks
  - pyramid on 09/08/2015 - 16:12
    
    Cash back is per order. So order 3 sim in 3 order and ull get 3 cash back ie 30$.

does cash rewards work while browsing with mobile?
- iamtezr on 04/08/2015 - 11:45
  
  Wouldn't recommend it as I'm not sure they accept Cookies.
  Best to do it on a PC and make sure adblocker/pop up blocker are all disabled and Enable all Cookies and have other browser closed.
  
  Just to be on the safe side.
kima on 04/08/2015 - 12:28

when I go through pricepal it redirects to the normal shop so its not $15. anyone know to work it?

  It has writing at the bottom which says 50% off.
  
  Edit 1: I think you are correct.
  
  Edit 2: Found solution. Find telstra prepaid on pricepal, scroll to end of the page and you should see pink starter pack logo with "Save 50% On Telstra…" writing. Click on it and it should take you to discounted starter pack.
JigglePhysics on 04/08/2015 - 14:23

This deal is horseshit, don't think doing this is smooth sailing. I ordered 3 sims last time this deal was up and telstra has straight up not delivered them. God knows at this rate if cash rewards is going to give me the cashback if they ever do get delivered. Smells fishy all over. Even the rewards page for your account, there is still nothing there even though ive already made the transaction to buy those sims. The money has been deducted from my account and yet the site still hasnt registered it !?!
busterau on 04/08/2015 - 14:26

I just got my first Cash Rewards of $8 payment come through (redeemable) off the last deal a couple of months back. The last deal they ended up increasing the cashback to $12, I may pull the trigger again if they increase to $12 this time round.

Just received my receipt from my order/s yesterday for the Telstra starter Kit from CR.

Anyone receiving an email showing "Expected Cashback: $8?" Rather than the $10 as promoted?

UPDATE: They've updated and now showing $10 on my account :)
bohn on 04/08/2015 - 14:45

Received an email from cash rewards.. $8 cashback expected.
Why not $10 as the offer states?
- iamtezr on 04/08/2015 - 14:47
  
  Yeah, I just sent the support an email.
  Might be a good idea to send them one yourself so they know they've screwed up.

  Did you get an email from Telstra saying the order failed? That happened to me last time, even though all 3 of mine were on their way, they recalled all 3 even after the delivery driver collected them. Upon delivering, said driver must have noticed the new status and so sent them back up the delivery network to Telstra. Telstra wanted me to appear in person at one of their stores for ID confirmation. Totally defeats the purpose of online shopping.
  - ExPrinceHairy on 05/08/2015 - 18:37

      Looks like you're going to have to ring them up to find out what's going on. I wonder how much delivery costs for each sim card they ship.

  Telstra saying the order is cancelled. If I still want them to replace the order, I have to go to telstra shop to verify my identify with a number of ridiculous documents, including employment payslip. WTF, it's a prepaid starter kit not a post-paid contract. I am not going to do that. I guess they just change the mind not winning to sell it at $5. So they put all those troubles to you.
  - ExPrinceHairy on 07/08/2015 - 10:32

is it normal for your cashrewards balance to still show as zero several hours after purchasing?
- claud0902 on 06/08/2015 - 15:34
  
  It takes up to 24 hours for cashrewards to add the cash to your account. You will receive an email notification for the confirmation.
  - gorge on 07/08/2015 - 18:35
    
    balance is still $0. There never seems to have evenbeen any acknowledgement from cashrewards that i purchased something even though i went to the telstra store via the link on their website
Dabbler68 on 06/08/2015 - 17:46

Well I got an unexpected bonus … an extra SIM.

I went throught the order process twice and paid twice (via CashRewards), but Telstra sent me 3 acknowledgements. I thought it was just an email glitch but I received 3 separate SIM packages. CashRewards only shows two. I also got the $8 notification, but it shows as $10 on my account.

For the record I have 4 active prepaid SIMs with Telstra. I wasn't home when the deliveries came, so a card was left for PO pickup with "FOR COLLECTION BY …(my name) … ONLY".

Hen on 06/08/2015 - 21:34

Please excuse my ignorance. Have been reading OzB wiki on Telstra starter packs and think one can use these for data only (3GB) by selecting data on activation, then use as pretty cheap data and simply activate another when required (I already have an optus phone plan but occasionally need a pile of extra data). Could someone please confirm I've interpreted correctly. Can't see any info on data only on the Telstra starter pack webpage. Thanks
- fatice on 07/08/2015 - 11:47
  
  Correct me if I am wrong. I think the new Data plan has only 2GB data. But it will give you $30 credit to be used on google play store. This $30 cannot creditme2u, but have to be used up within the plan period.
  - Hen on 07/08/2015 - 13:10
    
    Thank you fatice. I guess my main question is can this starter kit be used for data? If so I would buy a few for times when I need extra data without having to pay $10/GB with my optus plan. (This starter kit, even if 2GB, would work out at $2.50/GB IF it's possible to use for data)
    - fatice on 07/08/2015 - 14:36
      
      The short answer is YES.
      
      The long one: These new $30 starter kits allow user to sign up for mobile or data plans. You can have 1 month, 3 months or 6 months mobile plans. All data plans are 1 month only.
    - Hen on 07/08/2015 - 16:02
      
      @fatice: Many thanks fatice. Will buy then :-)
