    Don't forget cashrewards.com.au $7 cashback to bring this deal down to amazing $8 per 90 days

    • demiurge on 18/01/2019 - 13:55

      There is no $20 cashback.

    • demiurge on 18/01/2019 - 14:00

      Also most likely you will not get cashback because this is "90 Day Plan - ID: 406c" as opposed to their normal 90 day plan, so cashrewards won't pay you.

        Once ordered, I had it tracked in cash rewards within 10 min, the cash back amount is $5.

        • Melbfella06 on 18/01/2019 - 14:33

          Yep you are right. It’s $5, funny it says $7 in the tracking tool.

    • Spootage on 18/01/2019 - 15:50

      Ok I just signed up for cashrewards. How do I do this?

  • chewkl on 18/01/2019 - 13:50

    Says $89 for me but if I open in incognito window says $15. Weird.

  • guitarit on 18/01/2019 - 13:59

    I moved from Kogan to Catch Connect and can confirm Catch Connect has way better reception.

    • demiurge on 18/01/2019 - 14:01
      +20

      They are with optus and kogan is with vodafone, all depends on where you live for better reception.

        • dtc on 18/01/2019 - 20:37

          NSW south coast, which has no cities, Voda is way better than Optus, which stops working every holiday weekend. Although Telstra is by far the best

          You must be an Optus employee I guess

        • frewer on 19/01/2019 - 06:49

          • techfourk on 05/08/2019 - 19:14

            @frewer: Same here. Though, as @demiurge mentioned, it is fully reliant on your physical location in relation to the cell tower / transmitter.

    • Jamesx on 18/01/2019 - 14:16

    Be very aware and careful that you may face difficulty and significant delay when you're about to port out from Catch Connect to other providers i.e. Kogan

    • lawyerz on 18/01/2019 - 14:19

      I just ported out from Catch Connect to Vodafone, no issues.

      yep, can confirm, i literally just now ported out from then to kogan and i had to call kogan up and get them to go through some manual investigation and all that shit. it was very annoying. oh ya ur the guy that started the thread. so (profanity) up. its not worth the value!

    • ww on 18/01/2019 - 21:39

      I ported 3 numbers last week. 2 numbers within 20mins. The one with catch connect took 5 days and many phone calls. What’s more, I turned off auto recharge, they still charged me. Now in the process of refund. Hope I can get my $35 back soon.

      • apokalypsez on 19/01/2019 - 13:45

        heard so many stories about auto recharge and porting…reluctant recommend to my family members and households.

    • cannibal on 19/01/2019 - 03:01

      I attempted to port out to Kogan on 14 Jan. It still hasn't gone through, but it suits me as I still have another number with credit on it. However, thanks for the tip, I'll allow a week to remind them before this other number expires.

  • konji on 18/01/2019 - 14:16

    ported to this just before christmas to port back to telstra via JB (giftcard + extra data)

  • lawyerz on 18/01/2019 - 14:21

    If you've ported out in the past and port back in, just confirming that still counts as "new sign ups"?

    • rye on 18/01/2019 - 14:28

      I ported out from Catch last year at the end of a similar deal. Ported to Kogan for 30 days and then ported back to Catch on another 90 day deal with no problems.

      • rye on 18/01/2019 - 14:33

        The last deal was worded “new customers only”

  • FeZZa21 on 18/01/2019 - 14:22

    awesome! just in time as my previous 90 day catch SIM is going to finish early next month.

    12 month 4G+free calls for less than $50 total is amazing value! :D

    • chewkl on 18/01/2019 - 14:24

      Isn't there like a 30 day minimum you need to be off their network before you can port back in? Or was that just Kogan?

      • FeZZa21 on 18/01/2019 - 14:26

        sorry should have mentioned I have a dual-SIM phone. I use the 2nd SIM to get a brand new service every time a new deal like this comes around.

        • dazweeja on 18/01/2019 - 14:32

          So you just create a new Catch Connect account with new number each time and use that SIM for data and your regular SIM for calls?

            +2

            @dazweeja: yes, I use the new sim for data and outgoing calls. incoming calls come to my original number that's on SIM 1.

            • dazweeja on 18/01/2019 - 14:36

              @FeZZa21: Thanks mate. I've never owned a dual-SIM phone but now I'm interested!

              • banana365 on 18/01/2019 - 21:18

                @dazweeja: Dual SIM phones are great if you need a phone for work. My last 4 phones have been dual SIM and I no longer have to carry 2 phones all the time. Have a look at the Moto G6 Plus. It seems to be a favourite on here, I'm waiting for another good deal on one to come round to replace my Moto G4 Plus. I missed out on the last couple of deals.

    Anyone know if can port your number to a new provider if your plan expires? I'm on aldi 1 year super pack which expires tomorrow the 19th but I'd like to use my same number, just unsure if I can let plan expire then port or have to port while plan active.

    • demiurge on 18/01/2019 - 17:43

      Yes, you have some leeway. Kogan is the worst, you won't be able to receive calls after 30 days. I have Telstra numbers that are six months expired and are still under my account and can still receive calls.

  • virhlpool on 18/01/2019 - 18:30

    Real question is - what after 90 days? That's where Kogan consistently does better. Bring on cheaper long term plans and reasons to stick on even after one year.

    • demiurge on 18/01/2019 - 19:09

      Jump on another deal. There are so many sim deals running around it's silly to stay on a long term plan.

      • virhlpool on 18/01/2019 - 19:47
        +2

        It's a bit of pain, mate. Get onto a nice deal and don't bother about any activation or bills for a year. It's a pleasure. Kogan has learnt what people prefer and have encashed the opportunity.

    • HeWhoKnows on 19/01/2019 - 11:45

      Sorry you got that one slightly wrong about Kogan.
      The Small 365 day plan started out at $125 on promo and is now $162 on promo.
      They have cut back the discount from 15% to 10% on the small 365 plan.
      So Im done with Kogan. Thanks for a good ride. No issues.

      Belong Mobile is only $10/mth ongoing for 1GB plan with unlimited T&T and with unlimited data banking. And it sits on the Telstra network. In fact I suspect telstra owns Belong.

      • virhlpool on 19/01/2019 - 12:22
        +2

        It's not just price which is important but also the length of the plan at that monthly price. The convenience that 365-days plan offers is invaluable as I mentioned above. Having not to worry abt my mobile plan or bills for one year straight, without any compromise in price, is a luxury that I highly appreciate after being with Amaysim and other carriers for several shorter periods.

    Is this normal shipping times for Catch?

    • HaiG on 11/02/2019 - 19:54

      I bought one two on the same day and haven't received the SIM. Their support is kind of worst of the worst (service call quality is 1/10 quality of Skype/Viber and online chat keeps disconnecting and very slow to respond to each of your question) so you may want to wait for a few more days and then contact them for replacement if it's still not arrived. They said SIM is shipped out the next day but I wouldn't trust it.

      • Blue Cat on 11/02/2019 - 20:12

        I contacted them on live chat on Sunday.
        At first they said to wait a few more days. Didn't like that, so I gave them a call on their support number. The guy on the phone said sorry for the inconvenience and said they will send the replacement SIM card on monday with express post!
        Try calling them!

  • thejdproject on 13/02/2019 - 20:50

    • nightelves on 23/02/2019 - 20:39

      Had that issue before as well it took more than a week for me. The best way is get yourself a $2 Telstra sim and port your number into Telstra. After it’s ported then you’re good to port elsewhere. Kogan and Catch are hopeless with resolving porting issues.

      • DemocracyManifest on 24/02/2019 - 08:49

        Yeah took 3 days in the end will keep in mind for next time

      At the moment, you are probably just buying the coupon. They will then send you a confirmation email and a SIM card in the (snail) mail.
      When you go to activate the account, after receiving the SIM card, you have can select option to keep your existing number
