    They have always been free.

    • missyr on 31/05/2020 - 01:02

      Previous time, they expired and Lyca stopped sending them out.

      So get them while you can!

      • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 08:48

        But why get them in the first place? What are they useful for?

        [Update] Now confirmed as useful for porting in & out👍

    Don't need credit to activate right?

    • missyr on 31/05/2020 - 01:23

      Correct.

      No credit card needed.

      • CVonC on 31/05/2020 - 01:56

        I meant no need for a top up to activate yes?

        • VlVh on 31/05/2020 - 08:17
          +3

          Yes, no need top up. You can port into Lyca then port out immediately without spending anything on these free sims.

          • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 08:20

            @VlVh: No one else has said that in previous Lyca free SIM Deals. Frequently asked.

            Have you done this with a Lyca free SIM recently?

            Some other providers have stopped that handy practice now, requiring credit added.
            That's why the Telstra $2 SIMs are great - when available free (but not now).

              @INFIDEL: Yes, VIVh is right. I did three times already this month. Port in the number to Lycamobile is technical work, but if following instructions should be alright.

              • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 08:54

                @jimojr: Thanks for confirming👍
                Good to know.

              @INFIDEL: Since Lycamobile uses Telstra network, it could be similar. Think that Amaysim, Catch, OVO manage accounts in a very similar way .

              Ordered the SIM this time and will muck around with a spare number to know it better.

    • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 08:10

      That question has been asked in these free SIM Deals going back nearly 7 years - no one has given an answer, so very unlikely.

      how do you port out to free sim with Lyca? Do you have to recharge the lyca sim to port out from Kogan? i guess you have to top up lyca sim to activate? please confirm . thanks

    In Penalty Box

    Hmm…

  • bajirao on 31/05/2020 - 03:18

    Can this be activated without any recharge? Some feedback in earlier threads suggest difficulty with porting.

  • Wizard on 31/05/2020 - 05:15

    Aldi have $5 sim that last 365 days….

    • hexapling on 31/05/2020 - 07:20

      $0 < $5 when it comes to receiving texts and calls only.

      • Neoika on 31/05/2020 - 07:29

        How long can it last without recharge?

      • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 07:52

        1 year of receiving texts and calls is much longer than probably none with this Deal.

        In these free SIM Deals going back years, no one has confirmed we get anything more than the SIM.

        Amaysim SIMs receive texts and calls for a year after credit expires. So great for keeping old numbers active. Sometimes available free in Deals - with free calls & data. Just activated another free one from Deal last month.

  • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 08:03

    Looked through Lyca free SIM Deals going back years - no mention of any real use for this SIM - unless intending to sign up. In which case - better to take up an offer in a Deal.

    Just lots of people saying to avoid Lyca!

    A few asked if it can be used without credit - there was no reply!!

    Best use suggested (7 years ago) for these free SIMs:
    Order 100,000 free SIM's.
    Recover and melt the gold plating from each SIM
    Sell gold nugget

    Unlimited 10 for $1 is better deal.

    • IUisdabest on 31/05/2020 - 21:04

      I have ordered the $1 deal before.
      Does anyone know if I can order it again and again?

  • Arthur Dunger on 31/05/2020 - 09:16

    If you need a sim for 1 month then it's hard to beat the Catch 40GB $1.40 after cashback.

    • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 09:32

      You do love your sweet SIM Deals👍

      $1.40! Activated that Catch yesterday for 10c profit after cashback🎉

      • Neoika on 31/05/2020 - 09:41
        +1

        I bought 2 in a week ($4.9 + $5 cashback) and think of using this lycamobile SIM to bounce back with the same number.

        • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 09:59

          Not a bad idea, as Catch uses Optus & as you say Lyca uses Telstra.

          I've got a free Catch expiring in a week, & another to activate by same date - so may will do the same.

          Ordered 2 SIMs, 1 for now & 1 for later.

          Since buying a dual SIM phone, I rarely Port. Now on my main number I use free Amaysim for 1+ year of incoming calls & SMS. So Port out & back ever 13 months.

            @INFIDEL: Once you go dual sim you never go back. This is why no prepaid phones are dual sim.

            • INFIDEL on 31/05/2020 - 10:13

              @Arthur Dunger: Currently have free Catch & free Amaysim in dual SIM.
              Plus… 10c profit Catch & free Amaysim in 2 other phones - waiting to be used.

      It's about the best use for this Lyca SIM!

      Much better to take up free SIM Deals with included credit & data.

  • povertytrap on 31/05/2020 - 12:12

    So can you use this as a new number for Uber Eats deals, etc without having to buy credit?

    • jimojr on 31/05/2020 - 16:08

      Yes, you can. Without credit you can receive the SMS verification code.

  • mamut343 on 31/05/2020 - 20:31

    How can you get the sim for free? I click the "get free sim", fill in my address and click proceed, the website jump back to the 1st page again.

  • kosh52 on 01/06/2020 - 01:47

    Thanks mate got one to get all the free ozzybargain free signup offers

  • DemocracyManifest on 09/07/2020 - 11:32

    These are useless, they don’t let you use their offers online without a new sim

  • povertytrap on 21/07/2020 - 20:37

    Tried to use this for a new account with Uber Eats. Have to register with Lyca which is a bit of a pain for this to work but it now seems to.

    • StefanH on 31/08/2020 - 21:16

      Hey, how exactly did you do this. I ordered the SIM card and activated it online, didn't buy anything though. Did you buy any plan to make it work? We can't receive anything on the sim card.
