    Hi
    I got a sim from the previous deal and didn't continue using it when the data finished.

    When it says new customers, does this mean I wont be able to get this deal?

    I did activate the previous one and link it?

    Good option for those who doesn't wanna commit to adsl or such :
    Adsl at my place is soo slow

      You can get this deal, you'll just have to opt for "I want a new number".

      From memory it's 30 days…

    • [Deactivated] on 22/08/2018 - 12:13

      0 As long as you port in or register a new number you're fine. The only thing you can't do is port kogan-kogan or use this to add credit to an existing kogan account.

    • Tock on 22/08/2018 - 12:53

      Just call and cancel the SIM.

  • harthagan on 22/08/2018 - 12:06

    So if I'm currently a kogan mobile customer could I get this and just get a new number or it won't work?

  • parisian on 22/08/2018 - 12:11

    I have an older voucher and a sim card that I will not use as I am using Boost atm.
    It expires the 31th of August.
    Can give the sim in Brisbane CBD or Fortitude Valley and the voucher as well.
    Feel free to send me a message ! :)

    • kelasen on 22/08/2018 - 12:13

      Can I just have the voucher please? PMed

      Edit: Sorry your PMs are not enabled. If you are still interested please PM me the voucher code as I don't need the SIM.

      Thanks

    • superforever on 22/08/2018 - 12:13

    Do you need to link a credit card to activate?

    • happirt on 22/08/2018 - 13:25

      yes i think so but you can deactivate auto recharge immediately upon.

      • jpl on 22/08/2018 - 15:10

        Watch out, it will auto enable quietly.

        • finbar on 22/08/2018 - 16:57

        • inamberclad on 22/08/2018 - 17:43

          @finbar: activated one today, and auto-recharge is automatic. i'm pretty sure there was previously a tickbox on activation that allowed you to opt out.

        • finbar on 22/08/2018 - 17:48

          @inamberclad:

          Oh okay. Thanks for the reply. I was already aware that it will enable during signup. Its very easy to disable. I thought that once its been disabled, "it will auto enable quietly".

        • superforever on 22/08/2018 - 18:54

          @finbar:

          "it will auto enable quietly".

          Never have this before.

          You can untick auto renew during activation.

          @finbar:

          Really? The one I activated month ago still have this option.

          I am using Catch Connect $1 at the moment.

        • happirt on 23/08/2018 - 11:22

          There is also now an option to remove credit card details from your account after activation… so I don't know how it could auto enable without that…

        • illumination on 23/08/2018 - 12:27

          @happirt: Unless it's lying about removing your CC details..

        • happirt on 24/08/2018 - 09:47

  • pennypincher98 on 22/08/2018 - 12:37

    Why is it that Kogan includes at least 4 Sim cards every time I get one of these deals?

    Great timing as well, use these just for the data!

  • occystrap on 22/08/2018 - 12:43

    I'm coming off a year long contract and have been looking at these 1 month prepaid SIMS, do people just buy lots of them and activate one after another or do you need to find another provider/plan at the end of 1 month? I'm confused how they work

    • josetann on 22/08/2018 - 12:52
      +2

      If you have a dual sim phone, you could just use one for calls/txts, and the other for data. That way you don't have to worry about porting in/out all the time.

    • nightelves on 22/08/2018 - 12:53
      +8

      Yes you finder another provider after each month and port in and out from there. If you’re savy enough you can average about $2–$5 each month using this technique. The savings alone can go towards a new phone.

        • nightelves on 22/08/2018 - 13:05
          +10

          I’m comparing the savings you make if you were on a plan.

        • nickj on 22/08/2018 - 17:20
          +7

          I've been porting regularly for the last 3 years, and my out of pocket cost for used services so far is $132.79, and my net cost (after cashbacks, rebatr, etc) is -$111.11 (yes, a negative figure, i.e. I got paid to have a mobile).

          I have enough SIMs stashed for another 18 months of service, and the total out-of-pocket cost for those was $41.83.

          So that's 4.5 years of service for a net cost of -$69.28. If you can do better than that on a plan, please post it as a deal.

          At a minimum, on a plan vaguely equivalent you'd be looking at $25/month (and it wouldn't include anywhere near as much data as I usually get). Total cost over that time would be 25124.5 = $1350. The difference between those 2 approaches would buy you 90% of an iPhone X ;-)

        • chumlee on 22/08/2018 - 18:19

          @nickj: depends what value you put on time and convenience.

          I could go to the supermarket at the end of the day and get marked down food but can't be bothered as too many other important things in life

        • illumination on 22/08/2018 - 18:32
          +3

          @chumlee: This is a very important point.

          I, like nickj, am also a SIM Slut and I probably have close to net cost $0 mobile service over the last few years as well. It looks like nickj's probably kept a spreadsheet of his records so he can provide very precise figures. I haven't.

          In addition, I really enjoy it. It's like a game, a challenge to me, to get such a cheap mobile service.

          But as I said, it's important you factor in the additional time, the potential headaches and the perceived inconvenience surrounding such behaviour. It is not at all unusual for someone to hear what nickj and I do, and think, "uh, it's so much easier to just get a plan".

          It's true - and it's important not to ignore this. Convenience costs money, and some people are willing to pay for it.

          aeoz completely misunderstood the point though lol.

        • nickj on 22/08/2018 - 20:59
          +2

          Absolutely agree with @illumination. I treat it like a game and enjoy the challenge too, for having a decent service for very few dollars. But there is most definitely a cost in time and convenience. I've learned to minimize that cost by following guidelines/rules, e.g. porting during porting hours, porting before service expiry, porting in the morning to leave more time to resolve problems should they arise, avoiding carriers who have had previous porting problems or by adding extra time for porting to/from them, avoiding porting within the same network, avoiding porting twice in the same day, contacting support if the port has not succeeded within 3 hours, and so forth. But it is absolutely more effort and takes more time than a set-and-forget plan, no denying that at all.

          @nickj:
          You and I think very alike Nick. Similar story with me although I think you might have just shaded me in the tight ass telco stakes. Not by much though 😉 Those $1 woolies Sims a couple of years back were a gold mine. Grabbed a stack and only just recently ran out.

        • aoiro on 22/08/2018 - 23:54
          +2

          @nickj:
          Agreed on needing to take the effort into account, but you can get to a point where it's pretty automatic.

          Case in point, I use a dual sim phone and keep my main number on Telstra (grandfathered Simplicity plan) which I extend with another Telstra Simplicity sim living in another phone, by creditme2u $1 to each other once every 2 weeks. As I have about $250 worth of credit between the 2 Sims, that is going to last me a long time and I don't use the credit for any other purpose.

          Then in the other sim slot I just use whatever free or better deal gets advertised here monthly, or buy some cheap long expiring data Sims for later. My current outlay overall is $60 over the last 5 years and I have 300gbs of unexpiring data to use whenever.

          I've now learned to not buy any Sims unless it's almost free or better, and the effort is a tiny once per month new sim sign up, plus 1 minute every 2 weeks to extend my main Telstra sims.

    • GregMonarch on 23/08/2018 - 00:42

      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/394895#comment-6228424

      Your question is confusing. I think you're asking if you:

      1. Buy a Kogan SIM, activate it, then…
      2. Buy a second Kogan SIM, but only activate it when the first SIM runs out, and keep the number from SIM 1 (or the number you ported in)…

      Then no. You have wait 30 or 40 days for the number to 'fall off' their register. (There's some confusion if it's 30 or 40 days.)

      So you just take whatever number they give you for the second, third, fourth, etc. SIM - and - if you hit their number of SIMs limit - then use a different credit card for the 5th/6th SIM, etc.
