          After trying Optus chat they say if I want this deal I must only go through the link. Very frustrating!

          edit from Optus chat: "However, we don't have such link right now, which I can help you right now. So, I will suggest you to please if you will get that link, so that you can place the order by yourself."

          OK, the only way I can get this to work is if I go through the OzBargain link on my phone. That was painful!

      You cant chromecast from 3G/4G.. your phone will need to be on the same wifi network.

      • ronnknee on 13/02/2018 - 13:20

        Well, it's not impossible. Just means you use your phone as a WiFi hotspot and another device to stream/cast.

        • mattyman on 13/02/2018 - 13:22

          It's not permitted in the T&C's.

        • ronnknee on 13/02/2018 - 13:25

          @mattyman:

          Which part is not permitted?

        • brokeunistudent on 13/02/2018 - 14:19

          @ronnknee: they can detect tethered connections and may charge you for the data consumed

    • mattyman on 13/02/2018 - 13:17

      While tethering isn't permitted there's no reason why you couldn't buy a HDMI cable for your phone and plug it into your TV.

      • rc86 on 13/02/2018 - 17:25

    • vanoob on 13/02/2018 - 11:15

      your chromecast should be using the wifi that the chromecast will be connected too, so it will effect the quota that the network it is connected to and not your optus mobile.

    • sleepingpanda on 13/02/2018 - 11:34

      Yes, just have you account number handy when you signup because they will need it to port the number over

      • mrkrazy on 13/02/2018 - 13:14

        I just ported my TPG mobile subscription and they only asked for the operator and phone number, no questions about account number…

      same here

      • xyron on 13/02/2018 - 11:34

        theyve finally admitted they won't recontract anyone on this plan. i dont want to port out and in as i dont want to lose my data share sims. oh well!

        • JTTheMan on 13/02/2018 - 11:53

          I know how you feel, I have those data share sims too and they are gold!

        • Smol Cat on 13/02/2018 - 13:23

          @JTTheMan: What are these magical data share sims you speak of?

        • bargain ben on 13/02/2018 - 15:58

          @Smol Cat:
          You could pay an extra $5 per month and share your data with another device (e.g. Tablet, wifi hotspot).

        • mrpringle on 13/02/2018 - 16:21

          It was a one off payment of $5. I'm surprised they havent dropped service for them.

        • JTTheMan on 14/02/2018 - 11:00
          +1

          @Smol Cat There was a plan Optus had a couple of years ago that included extra data sims to share with your plan.
          Each sim cost a one-off $5 fee and you could purchase up to 10 sims to share on your plan.

          I purchased 4 sims (I should have bought 10) before Optus stopped offering the deal but they continue to honour the sims I already have.

          It's effectively free mobile internet if you have a decent data quota. I have three of the sims in Huawei 4G modems and one of the sims in my iPad Air

        • Smol Cat on 14/02/2018 - 11:07

          @JTTheMan: Oh boy that does sound bloody amazing. Does it apply still whenever you update your plan to new higher data caps??

        • JTTheMan on 14/02/2018 - 11:14
          +1

          @Smol Cat: Yes, as long as I keep my number I effectively keep that plan, even though that contract passed over a year ago the actual "plan" agreement holds.

          I have taken advantage of it to the max at the moment, I purchased the iPhone X 256gb with 200gb data for $149/month

          so now I share 200gb with the 3 x 4G modems and the iPad

        • Smol Cat on 14/02/2018 - 12:53

          @JTTheMan: Love it. How much is your iPhone X repayments a month over 24 months?

          I just bought one myself, but outright.

        • JTTheMan on 14/02/2018 - 13:20

          @Smol Cat: $149/mth 24 mths
          I was going to get it outright but went for this plan instead because of the huge data and because I had those sims

          Optus should realise I only stay with them because of those sims and they should really bring back that offer. Optus are you listening?

        • howbazaar on 16/02/2018 - 13:07

          I was on the $40pm for 10GB and recontracted to $30pm with 15GB. I was prepared to loose my data share sim.
          However, my data share sim was unaffected and continues to work. I think it might not be directly linked to the account. No guarantees though!!

        • xyron on 16/02/2018 - 13:50

          @howbazaar: how did you convince optus to let you recontract on to the $30 plan? im about to pull the trigger and recontract onto the $36 20gb student plan (i still have an active student email).

        • howbazaar on 16/02/2018 - 21:15

          @xyron: Via online chat; transfer out to prepaid for a day. Then sign up.

          Even more surprising that my data sim carried on despite doing that.

    • monstermash on 13/02/2018 - 11:44

      I tried out selecting 'I am with optus' and 'Buy a new plan' in order to recontract and select 'keep existing number' . It goes all the way through to place order (even when i am logged in to my optus account)

      I am just wondering if they'll process this?

    • monstermash on 13/02/2018 - 11:53

      …for us recontracting, I guess I am wondering if we 'buy a new plan' and cancel the existing out of contract plan

    Great way to saturate the Optus mobile network by promoting Netflix. Lets hope the boffins have capacity in order.

    • ChickenAdobo on 13/02/2018 - 11:45

        1.5Mbps bitrate wouldn't be 480p, it'd be 360p. Netflix uses 3.0Mbps bitrates to deliver 480-576p.

          For the last 2 years, I've been on a plan that included an iPhone 7 for $8 a month. Included unlimited calls & texts plus 5GB of data - didn't often use all of that either.

          That plan ends today & can't get anything anywhere near it :/

          Oh well, I guess I did alright paying $192 and ending up with the mobile.

          Niceee!! Although mine is for life. So as long as I don't change my plan, I stay on $10/mth with my inclusions. Having 21GB (and have done for over 2yrs now) is the big winner for me.
