    Nice deal! Does the 60 day expiry start the day it is purchased or you can activate it anytime?

  • HeisenbergMelb on 24/09/2019 - 02:03

    Spread over 12 months: $200, $16.66/month and 10gb/month.
    Not bad if compared to this which was $16.66 for 12.5gb/month.

    Gotta ask your self though, now that the $300 is back in stock, is there a sale coming soon on it?

    Unlimited international calls to Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Nepal, New Zealand, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Thailand, UK, USA and Vietnam.

      I'm wondering this to. From memory I think I was receiving texts in the Philippines in 2010.

    • Love a bargain on 24/09/2019 - 16:13

      Yes, if you've roaming on and Telstra offers roaming service in that country. You should be able to find out whether that's the case by checking the relevant roaming rates on Telstra's website (i.e. there won't be any rate for that country if there's no service).

      Incoming SMS is free.

    Only for new customer? Or can existing Telstra customer can avail this offer

      Had a chat to telstra an they said its only for new numbers

      • CyberMurning on 24/09/2019 - 08:30

        So, can't port existing number from other providers?

        • kwchaz on 24/09/2019 - 09:26
          +1

          If you port out and back in, you're treated as a new customer.

          • CyberMurning on 24/09/2019 - 10:45

            @kwchaz: im not with telstra atm. freewilly said new numbers thats why i want to clarify, new number as if i cannot port in?

            • kwchaz on 24/09/2019 - 15:50

              @CyberMurning: Hm, that's a fair point. It's never been a new number, they've always let you port over it. You'd have to contact them yourself to clarify that, but I highly doubt it as very few people would not already have a number they would want to keep.

    Think twice to buy from Telstra, Number porting is problem at the moment, i started my process on dt. 16.09.2019 and still they don't have reply. They wanted to convert my number to postpaid instead of prepaid and staff is not very helpful. Mine case is with TIO at the moment. It's kind of scam. You buy sim starter kit and they won't activate.

    • Robc on 24/09/2019 - 06:43

      I had a nightmare. They told me they were upgrading their system, turns out you need to keep the old sim active with credit, or you don't receive a verification code to swap. Very frustrating. I eventually activated on voda. Sadly I get terrible reception on that. Yay…

      • bajirao on 24/09/2019 - 08:32

        The code is a new thing started since June-end or so. For me I needed to enter the code on website so I need not have credit (there is a period where even if your prepaid plan expires you can receive incoming sms and calls). With Kogan I had to reply to that sms which means i needed to have the credit!

        • FiDad on 24/09/2019 - 09:47

          With kogan you can call the number mentioned in the xms and give them the code. Source i did it on last friday

        The code is to protect you from sim porting attacks.

    • bajirao on 24/09/2019 - 08:30

      Same here. Started last week on Thursday and still not done. Customer service is useless and clueless this time.

      Ported out to Vodafone in 20mins, ported back in next day no problems

      • ozhunter68 on 24/09/2019 - 13:39

        Yep, I ported out in under an hour yesterday but out of Telstra to Vodafone. I did have to txt a code to Voda though,

        so luckily I ported on last day before expiry, which is a day earlier than I used to port over from any telco to minimize

        wasted money lol. Did you port out of Telstra>Vodafone>Telstra,…. so two ports involving Telstra in twenty minutes, awesome :-)

      • jmmjbb on 25/09/2019 - 08:16

        How could you get the cheapest vodafone sim? Now the optus $2 sim is hard to use for port-out/port-in(Although it is free.
        http://www.optus.com.au/shop/prepaid/sim-card/2-sim), because you have to choose a plan and charge it when activation(previously you can choose to charge later)! THX!

    Can we buy now and activate after 2 months?

    • ozhunter68 on 24/09/2019 - 13:44

      Of course, why not.

      The sim pack/re-charge voucher should have an expiry date of at least 1 to 2 years but to be safe activate within one year after reading comments re changes in policy possibly affecting Boost/Vodafone and maybe in future even Telstra.

  • Jacku on 24/09/2019 - 08:50

    Apple Watch support on these pre paid plans?

    • Crocfreefree on 24/09/2019 - 10:52
      +1

      No.

      Telstra One Number (the eSim extension plan for cellular smartwatches such as the Apple Watch or Samsung Galaxy Watch) requires a Postpaid plan.

      "Telstra One Number is available to all customers on a Telstra mobile plan. Telstra pre-paid customers are not eligible."
      https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/one-number

      It's annoying, but I don't think it's going to change.

  • yht on 24/09/2019 - 08:51

      Want to know too, switched to Boost from Telstra to save $ then saw this!!! can't activate until my current plan expires in end of Jan

      • ozhunter68 on 24/09/2019 - 13:46

        If you have spare cash and feel this deal is as good as any between now and Jan 2020, then go for it :-)

          I'm using paypal, and it's taking forever to process, doesn't seem to be going through.

  • Crocfreefree on 24/09/2019 - 10:46

    Beware of relying on having your accumulated Telstra Prepaid Data Bank stay around:

    I've just received a Telstra SMS saying that my Data Bank would expire in 4 days. This is even though my credit doesn't expire until Jun 2020.

    There's nowhere that this "invisible" expiry date is indicated. Dialing #100# just reveals normal credit and monthly bonuses expiry dates.

    Whirlpool suggests various ways of extending it 186 days (6 months), but nothing is confirmed and no one seems to know for sure. Each method requires spending more money, which is a bit irritating when you've already plowed a large amount in, like the cost of this SIM.

  • congo on 24/09/2019 - 11:09

    The data sim is $100 for 40GB and 12 month expiry.

    • quarrymaster on 24/09/2019 - 11:17

      Can you use it in a phone, or just a tablet/wi-fi thingy?

      • Averell on 24/09/2019 - 11:38

        there is no such tablet/wifi-thingy/phone check, so you can use that in the 2nd SIM slot of your phone.
        The only difference is you cannot make/receive voice calls using that SIM. Not sure about SMS

      • congo on 24/09/2019 - 11:43

        tablet or mobile broadband device.

  • quarrymaster on 24/09/2019 - 11:17

    I'm probably going to get this as my back-up SIM with new number, and porting my soon to be out of contract Telstra plan to Optus for a better deal.

  • stevelo on 24/09/2019 - 11:29

    can we buy 2 and join $300 for 150G plan?

    • Cyberninja on 24/09/2019 - 13:49
      +2

      TL;DR - NO.

      Me: Looking to buy two of these.

      Rep: This is for a sim that you will purchase online. It means that, the recharge is already included in the SIM. ANd yes, after 6 months, the recharge will be back at $150.

      Rep: If you will purchase 2 SIM with $150 that is $100 as online promotion, you will get 2 SIM's with 2 different service number.

      Rep: The online promotion is only only for the SIM that you will purchase online,however, the recharge will revert back, after 6 months

      Me: within how many days should I activate the sim?
      Once the SIM is onhand, you can check the expiry of the SIM. As long as t he SIM card is not yet expired you can activate the service anytime.

      Me: so I won't know the expiry until I get the sim?

      Rep: Yes, but you can leave a note when you purchase the SIM. That you want the expiry of 2020 or 2021.

      • I Smell Pennies on 24/09/2019 - 14:45

      • CoreJava on 24/09/2019 - 14:51

        Normally the sim last for a year. So get 2, when your first one expiry, contact support to recharge by the sim. They will help you out on that.

  • drup on 24/09/2019 - 11:54

    What happens after 6 months? Can we renew again for the same price or are we at the mercy of normal telstra prices?

    • Crocfreefree on 24/09/2019 - 12:47

      Only the SIM with its included credit/data is discounted.
