    There are 2 options for using this starter pack. Either way, before you activate make sure you get a promo code from a friend already with Belong or the OzBargain Belong pool for an additional $20 credit.

    Option 1 (6 Months 7GB) - Start out on the $10 1GB per month plan. When the first billing cycle comes you'll already have 1GB data plus you get another 1GB (Double Data). The first 6 months cost is covered ($40 starter pack credit plus $20 referral credit).

    Option 2 (3 Months 82GB) - Start out on the $40 40GB per month plan. When the first billing cycle comes you'll already have 40GB data plus you get another 40GB (Double Data). Then switch to the $10 1GB per month plan for the 2nd month. The first 3 months cost is covered ($40 starter pack credit plus $20 referral credit) and you'll have 82GB banked which never expires and can be used or gifted.

    Double Data (1st month)
    If you want double data DO NOT port/activate on these dates 4th, 12th, 20th, 28th. These are the start of new billing cycles. They are the same every month.
    One month worth of data is credited on activation, and another on your first payment date, 1-8 days later. So you effectively get double data for the first monthly payment.

      Wow you've really thought this through. +1

    • good concise instructions.
      Still at Australia Post for $15 but you must activate within 24 hours of purchase.

      • Thanks. Belong sims are valid for 12 months from the purchase date.

      • I thought they were good for 1 year after the date of purchase.
        What happens after 24 hours? They are not good anymore?

        • I've never heard of this before. If it's true they would probably be in trouble with the ACCC.

    • So could you then stay on the $10/m plan until your data bank whittles away?

      • Yes, Belong isn't pre paid. Also the $10 plan gives you 1gb per month.

        • So you'd, in effect, end up with 92Gb costing $130 for 12 months (7.66Gb/mth @ $10.83/mth).

          Slightly better than the Boost deal, albeit on a slightly more gimped network.

            @krouton24: If you used Option 2 and stayed for 12 months then the total would be $110 with 91GB. You forgot the $20 referral credit.

            That's assuming you bought the starter pack for $20, but apparently it's still available @ Aus Post for $15.

    It's still $15 from Australia Post:

  • I liked the price but no voicemail was a dealbreaker for me the last time
