Hey guys, first time poster!

I realise some Woolworths stores are out of stock on the starter kits.

I checked out Harvey Norman and they seem to be doing the same deal so posting it here for you guys.

I managed to get a quick photo of the price on their system, should be nation wide!

Enjoy :)

Edit: It says Telstra prepaid SIM starter kit and its in pink, it works as phone or tablet, depending which plan you select! Says 5Gb on activation on the packet until 25/01/2015 as well :D

Edit: the SKU code should be 116846 (multi-purpose SIM) and 116980 (tablet SIM)

    Same deal at Coles.

  • nocure on 17/12/2015 - 16:35

    Do you work for HN ? If not you're game taking pics of their pos.

      Nope, just snapped a quick one when she was checking it on the system

  • wizzlesticks on 17/12/2015 - 16:39

    I think this deal is for the tablet starter kits. Is there a difference?

  • geek001 on 17/12/2015 - 16:42

    It's still $10 on the website.

    • MistaL on 17/12/2015 - 16:45

      Sorry, I have updated that its in store only

    • heyimsu on 17/12/2015 - 17:13

      Well it does say online price is $10 in the attached pic

    …and now they are every where.

    If Telstra removes the Google Play payment option from these, there are going to be many unhappy people.

    • eug on 17/12/2015 - 17:26

      Is there talk of it being removed? Does it still work the same as before at the moment? Just activate it as a mobile broadband sim and select carrier billing in google play?

      • whats up skip on 17/12/2015 - 17:54

        No talk of significance.

      • sween64 on 18/12/2015 - 10:08

        A survey was sent out asking customers what their reaction would be if it were removed.

    • imcold on 17/12/2015 - 18:37

      as long as its not abused for a profit then it should be ok I reckon.

  • simprosimple on 17/12/2015 - 17:12

    Just bought in store, it is still $10 but price matched for $5 manually

    • MistaL on 17/12/2015 - 17:17

      My one scanned up at $5, apparently the SKU code is 116846 and 116980

  • covert on 17/12/2015 - 17:27

    Anyone know is this can be converted into credit2me for google play ?

    • WhyAmICommenting on 17/12/2015 - 19:19

      Yep, it can be used for google play, not converted as such

  • shane2770 on 17/12/2015 - 18:07

    just bought one online no dramas cheers

    • eug on 17/12/2015 - 18:10

      For $10 or $5?

    • ChillBro on 17/12/2015 - 18:10

      It's $10 online isn't it?

  • aussie216618 on 17/12/2015 - 18:09

    Plenty of them in chadstone Vic. But sales limited 2 per customers.

    • aussie216618 on 17/12/2015 - 19:12

      Went to jbhifi next door and they refused to match price hn.

      • sween64 on 18/12/2015 - 10:09

        I've never had a JB price match on a starter kit. If find they're much more likely to price match on big ticket items (over $300).

    • Wolfie on 17/12/2015 - 23:07

      second that, left at 9pm. reckon still about 20 behind the counter.

  • Matwin23 on 17/12/2015 - 19:04

    How many prepaid telsra accounts can I activate simultaneously? I currently have one but data is just about run out, can I register another one of these sims? Current SIM expiry 27/12.

    • aussie216618 on 17/12/2015 - 19:11

      You can

    • WhyAmICommenting on 17/12/2015 - 19:20

      A lot, I've prob had 10 or more on the go since they take a while to expire even after youve used all the credit

      • Matwin23 on 17/12/2015 - 19:25

        Sweet. Thanks :)

        Went into a telstra shop and they brought up my account on a laptop. there was probably more than 10 numbers listed under my name. They must see this everytime I call customer support, too

    • sween64 on 18/12/2015 - 10:10

      There's no documented limit. It may be 30 as one person has said once before.

  • user01 on 17/12/2015 - 21:00

    Hi, Anyone knows which plan should i choose for prepaid in order to get the google play credit?

    Does all of telstra's prepaid plan include $30 play store credit?

    Thanks.

    • Click_It on 17/12/2015 - 21:05

      I've activated my last few as "Mobile Broadband" and got the $30 each time. Assuming you plan to use it in a WiFi modem like me, this will work fine. New Customer/Existing Customer doesn't seem to matter, I've been successful with each.

      What I'm unsure of is the total data allowance, hence my question below. In the past it's always been 3GB but it may be higher at the moment.

  • Click_It on 17/12/2015 - 21:04

    Quick question:

    Does one get the ~7.5GB or even anything over 3GB if activating as Mobile Broadband ?

    I'm not interested in voice calls and don't really want to stuff around with credit transfers, just need a dumb data allowance for my mobile wifi modem. Cheers :)

    • user01 on 17/12/2015 - 21:09

      i think only prepaid freedom plus can have 7.5gb data.

      • Click_It on 17/12/2015 - 22:03
        +1

        Oh well, activated it for my daughter, 3GB or 7.5GB she is going to destroy it in record time anyway. The main thing is I get another $30 Google Play credit, 16c to the dollar. I'm happy with that.

  • RangaWal on 17/12/2015 - 21:06

    Got the last one from Rothwell.

    Anyone tried price-matching at Officeworks?

    • Click_It on 17/12/2015 - 21:09
      +1

      I think stock is often the issue there according to previous threads where this question was asked. YMMV though.

      • sween64 on 18/12/2015 - 10:11

        There was no stock at Officeworks, Richmond, VIC on Wednesday evening.

    • Matwin23 on 18/12/2015 - 16:16

      Yep price beat today at OW $4.75

      • Click_It on 18/12/2015 - 19:31

        21 for the price of 20!

    Brookside Shopping center: Woolworth's out, Coles didn't bother serving me so I left for HN at Everton Park… they still have a rack full of them. I only got 2… good luck… its marked down to $10 but scanned at $5.

    I want to know that too

  • [Deactivated] on 18/12/2015 - 12:11

    Coles also have $30 Nano starter packs at $5/

    • sween64 on 18/12/2015 - 15:25

      We know. They started it all this week.

  • koole on 18/12/2015 - 12:57

    Got one at Hornsby Woolworths.

    thanks OP, perfect timing for my holidays. Got one from HN Taren Point NSW. shows $10 scans $5.

  • sween64 on 18/12/2015 - 15:26

    Officeworks, Nunawading, VIC now out of stock. They only had the one kit for tablets, fortunately they still price beat.

  • dealman on 18/12/2015 - 20:53

    Thanks OP,
    Bought 2, The sales clerk didn't know if they were for $5 he wanted to charge me 10, ha ha THanks for the screen grab OP, Told him to humor me and scan it anyway…

    Also just picked up a Logitech Bluetooth Speaker X50 for 24 $
    Thought it was a good deal , if anyone's looking for speakers grab that as well while you're there in store.

  • wata on 19/12/2015 - 08:37

    Hello,
    Can anyone confirm that the full $30 credit will work for LoLs RP by mobile purchase?
    Better than cash in a card as presents since my 2 nephews are addicted to that game.
    Thanks OP

    • realfancyman on 19/12/2015 - 23:08

      I don't play LoLs but I assume whatever in-game currency is used in this game is purchased via Google Play. If this is the case, then you can use the $30 credit in the game. Just make sure you have the SIM in the device your purchasing on and you wait 3 days after activation, otherwise you will get the "User not found" error.

    • awoff1 on 20/12/2015 - 10:26

      To buy RP you do it through the LoL client. Prices for RP here. Would be best to do $12 + $12 + $5 unless i'm mistaken.

      • wata on 21/12/2015 - 07:39

        Yep, 12+12+5 is best at 1630RP, thanks. Paying through Telstra SIM worked just fine. Works out they get about $15 worth of RP from the $5. Bargain!

  • geek001 on 19/12/2015 - 13:23

    Hi all, Just wanted to say it is $5 online as well now. However, there is a limit of 1 per customer. Better luck at Woolies or Coles I think. I bought 3 from my local Coles and 3 from Woolies next door.

    • Psychd on 19/12/2015 - 19:55

      Thx for heads up.

  • pea on 19/12/2015 - 13:47

    Stock levels may be inaccurate to what online shows. Went to liverpool HN yesterday, nothing on shelves and the guy checked the computer saying no stock left.

  • Psychd on 19/12/2015 - 19:09

    116846 Sold out. So I bought a tablet kit 116980. Activated on Freedom plus mobile ok.

    • realfancyman on 19/12/2015 - 23:03

      Yeah the SIMS are the same, just the packaging that is different.
