      It works great, I get a cheap prepaid plan on my number just to keep it then every month get a new Kogan number to use the data, so effectively I get unlimited calls, text and 32gb data for $10-15/month

      • jussie2000 on 30/10/2018 - 23:19

        I'm tempted to do the same as u. Although having used Kogan for last 20 days im not too impressed with their speed. When I need data the most, Kogan does not deliver as its either no reception or slow af and I have to use my optus anyway. I'm in metro Sydney. What's the point of all this data Kogan gives when it's no reception most of the time?

Or a new email and other details like alternate phone number etc need to be used for registering as a 'new customer' again for the 2nd time just after the last months activated sim 30 day validity gets over..? Thanks..

        I read that Kogan are now going through all accounts and charging $30 for every sim activated. Not only that but a swat team is on its way to send you to Guantanamo.

      • Blitzfx on 31/10/2018 - 02:11

        when it asks you if you've activated previous sims, what's the point of saying you have or haven't?

        • JediJan on 31/10/2018 - 03:34

          Activation process asks you if you have 5 active sims, so I have always assumed that is the maximum limit per person.

          If sims are not credited for 12 months I believe the accounts are closed though, so you would then be able to purchase and activate more.

          Have purchased and activated several Kogan and Vodafone sim cards over the past year but between 3 of us, using same credit card but between 3 different names, without any problems. Have not attempted to have more than 5 active per person though. I don't know if Vodafone or Kogan actually check, but there is a "Fair Use Policy" attached to these sim cards so perhaps they can/will close excessive accounts.

  • Han Solo on 30/10/2018 - 18:28

    • Cousin IT on 30/10/2018 - 18:35

      You can't activate it on your current plan, it's for new customers only. From the fine print: • Not to be used in conjunction with an existing Kogan Mobile service. You can activate the number on the SIM card though if you want to use it for data only or don't care if you change numbers.

      When Kogan sell it direct they put a picture saying new customers only, Groupon seem to skip that.

    Read the standard fine print, terms and conditions as shown in the description.

    People should turn OFF automatic renewal when setting up (activating) the account or they will find they are slugged with $49.90 for the following 30 days etc.

    I wonder how many people will omit to do this and complain after the fact.

    Could someone explain to me, what are the service and sim card in the above sentence?
    When does the 30 days count from? From the day of activating service or activating sim card?

    Thanks a lot.

    • Lets Go Brandon on 30/10/2018 - 19:55

      I am wondering about this too.

      Does the Groupon deal need to be redeemed with Kogan within the thirty days or does the actual cellular service need to be activated in that time?

    • josetann on 30/10/2018 - 20:23
      +8

      Think of the deal as comprising of two separate parts. One is a voucher for 30 days of service with Kogan Mobile. The other is a sim card for Kogan Mobile.

      You don't have to use the voucher from this deal with the sim from this deal. The voucher itself is good until the end of November, after that it's worthless. The sim is good for much longer.

      Many of us have spare Kogan sim cards. We can purchase this deal, use the voucher ASAP with a sim card we already have in our possession. The sim cards from this deal will be delivered within a couple weeks. We'll simply save those cards for the next Kogan deal. Rinse and repeat.

      • badinh on 31/10/2018 - 06:23

        Thanks Josetann.

        I am going to port my number from Optus to Kogan. Is is possible to use this deal?
        I may need to contact Kogan directly.

        • josetann on 31/10/2018 - 08:01
          +2

          Yes, UNLESS you had that number with Kogan within the last 30 days.

          If you were with Kogan on October 15 and ported to Optus, it hasn't been 30 days since that number was with Kogan, and you can't take advantage of this deal (wait a couple more weeks). But if you've been with Optus (or rather, anyone not Kogan) for 30+ days, won't be an issue.

      • peterpeterpumpkin on 31/10/2018 - 08:32
        +1

        I don't know how people can stand waiting for the SIM card. I had a bunch of SIMs for a rainy day (they actually sent 2 free ones in the same envelope) and didn't realise how beneficial they would be until I needed data the same day. I wish they would have even 1 same day collection point in each capital city.

        • JediJan on 01/11/2018 - 19:39

          Agree; waiting for a sim can be a nuisance.

          I have couple of spare sims myself. Can come in very handy.

    • badbaydot on 30/10/2018 - 20:29
      +1

      When does the 30 days count from? From the day you activate the sim using the voucher code that you just bought from Kogan.

      You can't activate the service without using the voucher code & activating the sim. So make sure you activate by 30th Nov 2018.

      You can activate the sim at a later date but you need to buy a new voucher code or use you credit card to top up.

  • adamiscoolization on 30/10/2018 - 22:47

    I’ve heard you can use these every other month, but is it possible say if another deal comes up in just under a month, to get another months worth on the same number?

    If so would that mean if there were deals every now and again like this, which it seems like it, I could get yearly calls and data for $12 a year?

    • JediJan on 31/10/2018 - 04:01
      +2

      These deals are for "new" accounts, so can be ported over from other companies or a new mobile number. If you wish to take advantage of another deal then you can activate that sim but only under another number. You can turn OFF automatic renewal during the activation process, or before the 30 days expires, or each following 30 days will be more expensive. Read the given details.

      I understand you are not supposed to hold more than 5 active sim cards, so cannot continue buying "new" vouchers/sims indefinitely under the same name.

      • peterpeterpumpkin on 31/10/2018 - 09:18
        +1

        I haven't read the terms and conditions of Kogan Mobile themselves, but ACMA has no issue with us holding infinite active prepaid SIMs. They only request that the carrier ask the question, and only if the customer replied yes, they do have more than 5, do they then require 2 Category A docs (Drivers Licence and Passport = done) or 1 Category A and 2 Category B (Medicare Card, bank card but with signature and other documents that can't be automated?).

        Kogan fully deactivates accounts after 90 days, so back to back activations with overlap or other accounts could technically push us over the limit. I don't know customer obligations though…since you can't receive calls after 20 days and can only make emergency calls in the remaining 70 the average person wouldn't consider the pre-paid SIM active in terms of functionality or criminal potential (except for harrassing emergency services?).

        • JediJan on 01/11/2018 - 19:54

          Thank you. I was not aware that Kogan fully deactivates after 90 days; always assumed it was 12 months … perhaps depends on individual Telcos then?

          I have always used drivers licences to activate these sims. I did try but found my Medicare card number was rejected once (? Could have been Vodafone though as we have several data sim cards activated atm… Mother still waiting for NBN so we have been activating 180 day Vodafone *$20 35GB sims).

          *These were usually $50 but there was a Coles deal a while back for $20 each …

          Certainly is hard to keep up with all these sim deals!

  • ryanwe on 31/10/2018 - 03:32

    How do these 30 day sims work? Do they expire completely after 30 days, or just require renewal?

    • JediJan on 31/10/2018 - 04:13
      +2

      These deals are for "new" accounts, new mobile numbers or ported over from other telcos.

      You activate the sims online and the deals last 30 days from that date.

      There is a section in the last part of the account process where you either opt in for or turn OFF automatic renewal. You can manually recharge as you require, or you can opt to leave automatic renewal ON, which will be much more expensive.

      Read the helpful links provided in the deal description.

      No.

      You MUST activate the SIM by 30 November to use the voucher.

      After that day the SIM will still activate but at full price (unless you receive another voucher in the future, since they can be used with any fresh SIM card).

    • INFIDEL on 31/10/2018 - 09:22

          We use Vodafone pocket ones. I understood from Vodafone they are not locked but some suggested they had some process to do to make them work. There was a "special" mentioned recently on OzBargain for about $20 not long ago. Sorry, no details; maybe Coles, Woolies BigW or Vodafone? Just make sure they are 4G. We are on NBN but these are handy to travel with. Maybe check eBay even?
