    @sanfans: Read a lot of issues with number porting to Boost. Has this issue been solved?

    • 0jay on 05/10/2019 - 10:49

      I ported from Kogan yesterday, was trouble free.

      • MistaL on 05/10/2019 - 10:50

        It's only some trouble when you are "porting" from Telstra to Boost, or a telco on the Telstra network

        You would need to get Boost to send you a special SIM to "port" those ones, other carriers all port fine :)

        • mbck on 05/10/2019 - 10:59

          That seems to be the case for same network porting.

          Was with virgin and moved to Optus. Had issues

        • Alzori on 05/10/2019 - 12:32

          I ported from ALDI to Boost a month ago and it went through fine, super quick.

          • TheOtherLeft on 06/10/2019 - 16:24

            @Alzori: I ported from Aldi (Telstra reseller if anyone doesn't know) to Boost 6 months ago and went through within a few hours.

    • galaxiers on 05/10/2019 - 11:02

      I ported from Aldi within 30 mins…no issue

    • boozler on 05/10/2019 - 11:19

      Ported away from Vodafone no problems what so ever.

    • f0d on 05/10/2019 - 13:12

      I just ported over from aldi about 2 hours ago, took 30minutes
      They do ask on your old provider (aldi for me) if you want to port over, I'm guessing if you don't put your old Sim back in after activating there will be issues

    • freesteakknives on 05/10/2019 - 13:19

      Yes - appears to be fixed. Took my mate about a month to port from Exetel. Just ported (finally) this week and was offered extra data as compensation. Might be more an Exetel thing. He was happy to wait since performance on Exetel was so bad that streaming was impossible in the office. Other friends to port to Boost this week came from multiple other providers and took between 30 minutes to 36 hours. Mine was 5 minutes from Aldi earlier this year with the $2 sim direct from Boost

    • CleverCounter on 06/10/2019 - 08:54

      Ported Optus to Boost twice no issues.

  • bbtlovebbt on 05/10/2019 - 10:45

    Do you open on Saturday and Sunday?
    Or need to wait until Monday to get one?

    • Associatedsanfans @ Southern Telecom on 05/10/2019 - 10:47

      We open 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday and Close in weekends and public holidays.

  • Associatedsanfans @ Southern Telecom on 05/10/2019 - 10:46
    +8

    No, Not Yet. It's not only Boost mobile. it's affecting every network as well as I know.

    I heard it's because Australia government reinforced the porting procedure to avoid faulty porting. Thus the carriers introduced a sms valify system to help prevent faulty porting out from one network to another.

    • 0jay on 05/10/2019 - 10:50

      Love a good valification.

      • Wardaddy on 05/10/2019 - 16:23

        I hope that's not racial valification!

        • 0jay on 05/10/2019 - 17:12
          +1

          Textual valification if I understand correctly

    • jobargain on 05/10/2019 - 20:20

      Does that mean i need to put my old sim back in to finalise the porting??
      Tried to port from Optus Friday afternoon around 2pm, still not activated, but haven't put old Optus sim back in yet?

      • f0d on 06/10/2019 - 00:34

        Yes
        They send a text to you on your old provider to port the number over

        Does that mean we can activate anytime prior to Sept 2021 and will have service until Sept 2022?

        Thanks!

        • Bjay on 05/10/2019 - 11:57

          I have the same question. My contract with optus won't end til December so I'm thinking about buying one now but activating later. Hope you can answer this OP. Thanks

        Did boost hand out these $150 sims in bulk or something…

        • Heybargain on 05/10/2019 - 11:51

          Maybe it’s a way for them to achieve quick cash

          • bbtlovebbt on 05/10/2019 - 11:53

            @Heybargain: Also means they want cash back which sometimes means their business is in deep trouble.

              +1

              @bbtlovebbt: It’s Telstra, I think it unlikely they’re ‘in deep trouble’

                @0jay: “Oh but the NBN is costing us so much oh no” - said company.

                  • ATangk on 05/10/2019 - 15:01

                    @0jay: Telstra charged exorbitant prices to NBN to sell them the dated and aged copper network.

                    • 0jay on 05/10/2019 - 15:02
                      +1

                      @ATangk: Yeah that was no scam on Telstra’s part, that was govt incompetence.

                      But yeh, safe to say they probably comfortably flush.

                      • philart on 05/10/2019 - 18:14

                        @0jay: One expects a business to work on behalf of the shareholders, interestingly the largest single shareholder being the federal government in it's future fund.

                          @philart: Never attribute to malice what can be easily explained by incompetence.

                          I find it pretty easy to accept that nobody with a role in that process understood the underlying technologies under consideration or the implications of that ignorance.

                          That includes Turnbull who is often cited as a tech savant cos he made a canny buyin with OzEmail.

    • gregorian on 05/10/2019 - 11:21
      +4

      Amaysim have been going downhill in terms of customer experience and ease of porting. They certainly were a major player giving very strong competition to the big Telcos a few years ago.

  • nascar77 on 05/10/2019 - 11:21

    Can this be used to recharge an exiting boost 150$ plan ending in a few months?

    • mountains on 05/10/2019 - 11:23

      No, for new number or porting from any non-telstra number.

    • Associatedsanfans @ Southern Telecom on 05/10/2019 - 11:24

      No, it can't. It's a starter pack, can be used for new or port-in only

    What is going on with this recent Boost offer? Seems becoming a hype.

    • Associatedsanfans @ Southern Telecom on 05/10/2019 - 11:29
      +7

      Boost had lunched it's long life plan since March, however, because of shortage of supply, there's nearly no stock for a few month.
      Most dealers may have they sales target way behind because of no stock. Now the new stock arrives, so….

        Nice lunch

  • zfa on 05/10/2019 - 11:33

    That website looks sketchy AF.

    • kehuehue on 05/10/2019 - 11:37

      yep, made real fast that they forgot to edit out template defaults, i believe they will be selling the data they gathered, gonna pass for now.

      • zfa on 05/10/2019 - 11:38
        +4

        And the domain doesn't match the supposed company name. Links don't go where they're supposed to etc etc.

    • TEER3X on 05/10/2019 - 11:37

      In what way?

      So if a website was all nice and shiny, does it mean it's more trustworthy?

      • zfa on 05/10/2019 - 11:39
        +4

        It's a thrown together template with placeholder text still left all over it, important links in the footers don't go to the associated pages, even contact us. The domain name bears no resemblance to the company it purports to be for. Even the shop location has to be found by Googling for someone else! Not to mention brand new OzB account, typos all over this deal and the site. My spidersense is tingling, that's all.

        • TEER3X on 05/10/2019 - 12:31

          Dude they have a physical store, some people weren't born with the internet in their hands.

          • zfa on 05/10/2019 - 12:36

            @TEER3X: No worries, if you're happy to use them, use them. I'd probably email them first to double-check why they're using the name of a company that's ABN has expired instead of their own name, site says their address is [email protected].

          • TheOtherLeft on 06/10/2019 - 16:30

            @TEER3X: The seller, Southern Telecom, is a store selling tech products. I would hope they'd have a good understanding of the Internet…

      • hen dawg on 05/10/2019 - 11:41

        Generally speaking, yes, as it shows its not run from a teenagers bedroom

          Don't see an ABN either. Status of the business is cancelled according to ASIC.

          Business name: SOUTHERN TELECOM

          • mini_wombat on 06/10/2019 - 14:25

            @flouise: This will be an interesting one … I am glad it was sold out and did not purchase it. Looks sketchy. They might have sold 300 cards which is $37,500. Hope everyone gets their Sim cards and it is not a scam. I guess it would be a first targeting Ozbargain for a scam which we have not picked up quick enough. But maybe they just had some left over stock…lets hope so.

    • johnnytran on 05/10/2019 - 11:46

      I’m in the same boat and by the looks of things we would need to port out to another provider eg Kogan then use this starter pack to port our number back over at some point

        Doesn't say in the critical info summary, but nowadays, stnd means mobile as well. I think a non-standard call is like one where you have to pay a fee (1900). I imagine a 13 number is standard too, since they are important when calling business and such.
