If you go to the Coles online brochure it says Boost $300 Recharge

Now I just need to find this for the 80GB Plan and get office works to match it :)
its been a while since we had any offer on the $150 plan
Hopefully OW takes their eye off the ball and you can price beat.
Be aware that their CS is terrible. Each time I call I get a different answer to the same question. They are simply clueless.
If you go with Optus you can use their pysical stores if necessary. Their telephone support is usually great, but recently it hasn't been perfect every time.
I can't speak for other companies.
I've never needed their customer service apart from the port. Really not an issue.
I'd much rather be on the Telstra network than Optus too.
Telstra network is TERRIBLE though… I'm in Sydney CBD I don't get why it's so bad at times.. Then if I switch to Voda on my dual SIM phone it's all good. Have they been focusing too much on rural areas and forgot about metro customers?
THIS! I have dead spots galore with Telstra but my wife with Vodafone is great everywhere. Will be switching back to Kogan when this boost deal expires.
Totally agree. Drop outs all the time now too!
Biggest mistake for me switching Boost.
Never experienced such crap reception, even Vodafone at their worst 8 years ago was better
Yes yes yes, telstra can be terrible especially indoors in larger buildings. What a disappointment
That's Telstra CS for ya
What do you use support for? I've had a mobile for over 10 years and I believe I've made less than 4 calls to support in that period.
Is this going to be a rechargeable voucher as Coles normally does?
Or must it be a new SIM card for new customer?
Looks like it’s a recharge. You have to ‘buy’ a $2 Boost SIM card in the same transaction, but $270 total cost for SIM and recharge combined.

I thought a sim is included?
For $270 yes you get both, but I would recommend making sure you ask for both.
If you ask for a $300 recharge voucher, you’ll get a $300 recharge voucher (not sure what it would charge you, possibly $270).
If you ask for a $300 recharge voucher plus bring a $2 SIM to the checkout at the same time, the system will charge $270 for the pair.
Does Telstra prioritise its own traffic vs boosts?
Nope
When does this need to be activated by? I can't see any time frame in the ad.
This isn't worth it, wait for this to be $240 which is what I am currently using right now. Then it will be 1 Gb = $1
Yes this is my thinking as well? Unless the 12 month expiry is valued more, my current boost pre-paid plan is better value at $1 per 1gb
Agree not sure why people neg you. Groceries gone up and now this gone up too so bs
Banking on them to bring the $135 for 80GB 12 months plan. It was on same time around last year. I hope they do realise a lot of us will be looking at renewing :D and hopefully they extend the 120GB promotion forever, on this plan (currently ends 31-Mar-2020)
Jeez, how different was it one year back.
I guess this is similar to the last deal that expired recently: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/520721
The $300 sim was on sale for $240, and with OW price beat down to 228.
Sim expiry from the one's I found at OW were April 2021.
Not all stores had the sims at higher values, so best to call up and check if you plan to price match.
Can vouch for having problems with Telstra retail network using Boost. Kinda disappointed but I can live with it. Will probably use Optus or Vodafone network provider next time.
There's always this deal, which is better value for most people…
25GB Per Month for 12 Months| Unlimited Talk & Text | 100 Mins International Calls | $19/m @ ETel Mobile
I just purchased it off the Self Check-Out Kiosk. Tapped the $300 recharge and it automatically applied the discount. Recharged using the printed voucher number and all sorted.
How about 80GB?
Looks like no love for 80GB
New customer?
