In addition to the yearly plans, Boost have also increased the data allowance for all its 28 day plans.

Here are the new plans, which all come with unlimited talk and text on a 28 day recharge:
$10 for 3GB (up from 1.5GB) 7 day recharge
$20 for 5GB (up from 3GB)
$30 for 20GB (up from 12GB)
$40 for 30GB (up from 22GB)
$50 for 40GB (up from 32GB)
$70 for 65GB (up from 52GB)

Boost has also extended data rollover to cover 28-day expiry plans costing $20 or more, where it was previously only available on plans costing $30 or more. However, unused data rolls over for use only within the next recharge.

Boost is also offering a bonus of 15GB of data on the first five recharges for new customers, if they activate by May 13 and recharge with $30 or more. Customers must make remaining recharges by September 2 to get the subsequent bonuses.

    $10 plan has a 7 day expiry

    • thangcuoi on 26/02/2019 - 20:09

      So the $150 for 80gb valid for 12 months is the much better deal for those who can afford to prepaid it.

        I disagree.
        You can get the $30 plan for 5 months, pay $150 and get 100gb.
        These long term plans make no sense

        • redfox1200 on 27/02/2019 - 10:28

          12 months is greater than 5 months

  • RockyRaccoon on 26/02/2019 - 18:22

    The $10 plan with 3GB Data sounds great BUT its ONLY for 7 days

  • chonka2 on 26/02/2019 - 18:35

    Also, set auto recharge to give full months, not just 28 days.

    • ChadHominem on 26/02/2019 - 19:47

      Wait, so the inclusions don't expire after 28 days?

      • chonka2 on 26/02/2019 - 23:01
        +2

        If you set auto recharge, you just pay once a month (not every 28 days) Data also rolls over, mine just auto recharged today as i have set 26th as my recharge date. I have 20gb + 35gb rollover data. (Must be my fifth month on deal do back to 20gb)

      • MrTweek on 27/02/2019 - 09:29

        No, it just expires are a full month (30/31 days) instead of 28 days.

    • Stormzors on 27/02/2019 - 08:59

      Wow that's a great tip! That pretty much means you only need to recharge 12 times a year instead of 13! Champion!!

  • seeknsearch on 26/02/2019 - 18:46

    It would be nice if they follow belong's plus $5 for international call and text. I'd port immediately.

    • Taegukgi on 26/02/2019 - 18:47
      +1

      Boost has now also extended international call inclusions to all plans, including its long expiry deals. Plans now come with unlimited talk and text to between 20-30 selected destinations. All plans also come with an additional limited allowance of international talk and text to 25-35 extra destinations.

      • jv on 26/02/2019 - 18:58

        They don't appear to include Switzerland though, so I can't do phone banking.

    • MrTweek on 27/02/2019 - 09:32

      Which country? On the $40 plan, you get free calls to around 55 countries (some unlimited, some 200 minutes).

      $30 plans has few countries less, but still a lot.

  • PeeDee on 26/02/2019 - 18:48

    Better than Kogan 365days and other yearly plans. I'll consider switching.

    Edit: nope Kogan is still better

    • T-man on 26/02/2019 - 18:59

      Wait a bit, Kogan should announce the new plans soon. Price war has begun.

    • plmko on 26/02/2019 - 19:26

      • spaceflight on 26/02/2019 - 19:56

        Boost is 30 days when you enable Auto recharge.

    • [Deactivated] on 26/02/2019 - 22:43

      Since Boost uses Telstra networks, I reckon this deal is outright better than Kogan which uses Vodafone. And yes, Boost does allow you to have an access to full Telstra coverage.

  • Bulk on 26/02/2019 - 18:57

    If I wanted to port to a JB or Telstra post paid plan later, will it be considered a port in from another carrier?

    • Maghook on 26/02/2019 - 19:47

      They've said to me it's possible with Belong but definitely not Boost. I had to get a new Optus SIM to take advantage of their port deals.

    • spaceflight on 26/02/2019 - 19:58

      Yeah but it uses Vodafone - ewww!

      I was just near Warburton, Vic last weekend - hardly rural, and the people on Optus and Voda had nothing - Telstra - full coverage.

          Haha, I'm with you there….it was more coordinating others arrival - they couldn't message once in the vicinity as no reception. I also used my phone to play Spotify, as other people couldn't.

          We had a wonderful time around the fire chatting though!!

    • stevtom27 on 28/02/2019 - 15:27

  • Misha Bakunin on 26/02/2019 - 20:11

    Ok so if i already am on their $30 28 days prepaid, next time I recharge can I just change it to the new deals? or will it be automatic?

    Or do i need a new sim card to take advantage of this?

    (sorry i realise this is probably a stupid question but i havent used pre-paid in years)

    Boost is also offering a bonus of 15GB of data on the first five recharges for new customers, if they activate by May 13 and recharge with $30 or more.

    Does this mean that for the $150 and $300 12 month plans we get 15GB extra?

    Great, I will tell both my parents and parents in law to port out of Aldi to Boost. Both of them are on Telstra networks, but Boost uses the full coverage of Telstra when Aldi doesn't.

    • CrankyCarrot on 22/05/2019 - 22:04

  • matt-ozb on 27/02/2019 - 00:06

    Once and for all, is Boost network performance identical to Telstra?

    I did some googling and the answer seems to be no .. there is no 4GX (although you can still access the 700 band).

    • teajay74 on 27/02/2019 - 00:31
      +3

      I can't say it with any certainty, but having been on Boost and Telstra, and playing around with Speedtest app, the max speed I got with Telstra was >200Mbps whereas I never got above ~100Mbps with Boost. But it could be just a random thing.

      In fact, Boost is unique among MVNOs in that it’s the only one to use the full Telstra network. Others use only parts of it and may not offer the same level of coverage, especially in rural regions. However, where Boost differs is that it does not use Telstra’s full ‘4GX’ speed capacity, and has a speed cap on the 4G network – 100Mbps. You still get the same coverage, though, so let’s see how the two compare when it compares down to their phone plans. Source.

      • WhyAmICommenting on 27/02/2019 - 00:39

        Correct, 4GX is for genuine Telstra customers only.

    $40 dollars top up now expires after 35 days
    $50 dollars top up expires after 42 days
    $30 top up gives you now 10GB (+ bonuses) (28 days expiry though)
    $40 top up gives you 20GB (+ bonuses)

    Quite annoying as I keep missing important calls…anyone else with Boost and having the same issue??

  • Madiba on 26/08/2020 - 20:08

    boost mobile are thief's. I was told by the live chat consultant that I will get data carried over if I recharge anytime before my plan expires so I recharged today. I had still 1 month in my post paid plan and 57g of data which I lost. You cannot call and speak to anyone at boost and the live chat team don't know whats going on. I have been speaking to livechat for the last 3hrs and they have changed operators 3 times and everyone is confused. Now all of a sudden I must bear loosing 1 month and 57g. That's nonsense. Don't purchase boost mobile ever. Bunch of liars. I will look for the relevant authority and be speaking to them.

  • Madiba on 26/08/2020 - 20:10

    Since I'm unemployed, my new life mission is to let australia know what horrendous service I have been given by boost and for STEALING my money. I will find that ombudsman to shut these thiefs down or fine them for playing with peoples life's.

  • SomeGuyOnOzB on 25/09/2020 - 12:13

    If you can't be sure whether you will get < 5 Mbps download speed before you buy the deal, you can't be sure there is a deal.

    So I'm voting this down, to let other potential customers know, that this might not be a deal.

    Boost / partial Telstra is 1 to 4 Mbps

    I was getting 105 Mbps with Vodafone and 47 Mbps with Optus.
    (11km from Melbourne, in the suburbs).

    • SomeGuyOnOzB on 02/11/2020 - 20:28

      Note: A few weeks later I got a message saying I was now connected with Boost.

      I checked the speed and it was 129 Mbps download speed, 22.6 Mbps upload speed.

  • db2k on 02/11/2020 - 15:10
