Starter Pack Features.

  • 40GB Data (+40GB double data on the 1st payment date)
  • Unlimited national calls & sms.
  • Unlimited data banking.
  • Unlimited data gifting.
  • No lock-in contracts.
  • Flexibility to change plans once every monthly payment cycle.
  • Data slows to 64 kbps if you use all your monthly allowance.
  • Telstra 4G & 3G.
  • 12 month SIM expiry (from the purchase date)

Here are 2 good options for getting the most out of this starter pack. Before you activate make sure you get a referral 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 payment date 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 payment date 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 & remaining months. The first 3 months cost is covered ($40 starter pack credit plus $20 referral credit) and data rolls over every month or can be gifted.

Double Data (1st month only)
DO NOT port/activate on these dates 4th, 12th, 20th, 28th. These are the start of new payment 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 at no extra cost.

    don't forget to sign up using referral!

    • jes on 22/06/2020 - 21:28

      How many times can we do this, like what if join up a 2nd time

      • cushydeskjob on 23/06/2020 - 10:22

        Use your own referral code up to ten times, ie refer yourself. $20 to you on each number.

        • Arthur Dunger on 23/06/2020 - 11:57

          Then get all your accounts cancelled for breaching the "Acceptable Use Policy".

          Link is in the description under "Customer Terms"

          • cushydeskjob on 24/06/2020 - 12:49

            @Arthur Dunger: The only "non-ordinary use" which may be treated as a breach in my case is a contact address being associated with more than one Belong service at your address. Cancellation isn't automatic and the address is only one factor which Belong may consider among a very large amount of more serious conditions and circumstances, for which remedies other than termination are proposed. Referral codes aren't mentioned.

            • Arthur Dunger on 26/06/2020 - 14:18

              @cushydeskjob: I was replying to your comment which was suggesting to refer yourself up to ten times.

              Pretty sure this would be regarded as an attempt to manipulate the system which is a breach of the "Acceptable Use Policy".

      • davidl2 on 23/06/2020 - 15:58

        refer under different name up to 10 times!
        free $200 (each time $20 when you refer someone to signup)
        if you refer under same name(your own name), your account might get cancelled, so…don't!

    Option 2 (3 Months 82GB) … The first 3 months cost is covered ($40 starter pack credit plus $20 referral credit)

    This is brilliant. Thanks OP.

    It's a great replacement for the discontinued Catch $15 for 3 months plan.

    • Arthur Dunger on 22/06/2020 - 18:51

      Yes good idea & you could buy a couple now as they are valid for 12 months from the purchase date, then port to Kogan for 90 days & port back. So a 12 month Belong/Kogan sim slut plan would be $69.80 with 284GB.

      Also the $20 starter pack is $10 @ Coles until 23/06 if you don't need as much data.

      • vash12 on 24/06/2020 - 23:14

        Port out using Kogan $0.99 @ 30 days will work?

  • callum9999 on 22/06/2020 - 19:12

    If my maths is correct, for an extra $5 you can also get 5 months with 24GB. (Activate on the $25 plan then move to the $10)

    1GB/month probably isn't quite enough for me but 5ish would be plenty.

    • vash12 on 24/06/2020 - 23:13

      Great tip! Thanks

  • Gundala on 22/06/2020 - 19:45

    I am activating a belong sim now. Can anyone tell me where you put the referral code? I got the referral code, but couldnt find where the code supposed to be put during the activation.

      promo code section. when you choose your plan. :) it will update your credit balance once it's done.

      • Gundala on 22/06/2020 - 20:56

        @plain_biscuit
        Thanks.
        I have just done it. First time for me to use Belong. AT least I can use it for 5 months

  • SnoozeAndLose on 22/06/2020 - 21:00

    Can you get $20 referral from a NBN user?

  • Ww5107 on 22/06/2020 - 21:53

    how do I list my referral code, or join the ozbargain pool

    • plain_biscuit on 23/06/2020 - 10:48

      I want to know the same thing.

    • mfwhatever on 23/06/2020 - 15:18

      Go to My Account -> Edit -> Referrals

  • pyramid on 23/06/2020 - 12:01

    @arthur for option 2: what is the best date to switch plan? Last date of current plan?

    • Arthur Dunger on 23/06/2020 - 12:35

      Any date except for 4th, 12th, 20th, 28th.

  • Ponsonby on 24/06/2020 - 12:41

    My $40 starter pack (for $20) might have been involuntarily activated today at the Woolworths self checkout. Before I could pay, the machine called the staff member over twice, the first time to confirm the item on the screen, and then to confirm activation. The receipt includes an approval code and "card activation could take up to 48 hours" and then a little contradictorily, "$40 activation was successful". So the idea of putting these cards aside for later may not work? BTW, the Woolworths rack also included a slightly different looking Belong $40 card "$40 for 40gb" without the words 'starter pack" which might have been a different kind of starter pack or just a recharge. This other card at Woolworths looked the same as the picture of the Officeworks one for $20 https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/belong-40-…

    • Arthur Dunger on 24/06/2020 - 12:46

      Woolworths are just registering that the starter pack has been sold. This information is most likely sent to Belong so they are aware of the purchase date. A member commented on an old Belong deal that he couldn't activate the sim when he got home because the checkout operator forgot to do this.

      Some starter packs have a sleeve on them which is what's on the OW link, they are the same thing.

  • froddo on 25/06/2020 - 12:23

    hi does anyone know if you refer using belong broad band account you can also get the $20 bonus if you refer to someone to belong mobile or does it have to be broadband?

  • iaam on 25/06/2020 - 18:38

    hi,
    What haapens if I port on 27th, do i still get an extra month?
    How long do i have before i activate this sim?
    Can i buy this sim card from Woolworths using 5% discounted gift cards?

    • bazingaa on 27/06/2020 - 17:37

      You can't use 5% discount cards at self check out, I tried and failed, paid by card at last.
      I also activated today (27th) and hopefully will get another 40GB tomorrow. I have done this before as well.

    Thanks mate! just ported.

    • ascorbic on 27/06/2020 - 18:00

      How long did it take after receiving the "we’re working on setting up your Belong mobile service" email? I've been waiting for 2 hours with no service on my old SIM (Catch) but the email says not to insert the Belong SIM until I get a confirmation email.

      • bazingaa on 27/06/2020 - 18:29

        At the last stage (we're setting up your account), it got failed with message like "oops! failed, please try again" and didn't get any mail. But service got ported within few minutes somehow. I ported from circles.life (optus reseller) and I used my old Belong account though.

        • ascorbic on 27/06/2020 - 18:34

          Tried putting in the SIM and it turns out the port was successful even though I didn't get a confirmation! Quite confusing when the email says to wait for a confirmation before inserting the SIM.

          • bazingaa on 27/06/2020 - 18:36

            @ascorbic: After loosing the service on old sim, I also just inserted the Belong sim as there was no email or success in the web site when porting.

  • Arthur Dunger on 04/07/2020 - 19:17

    Comments here suggest it's still available this week.

  • jebdra on 05/07/2020 - 16:01

    Ok. This looks good, thank you OP.

    But I think I'll need to read the wiki. It sounds too good to be true.

  • squinly on 05/07/2020 - 22:50

    Great deal. I jumped on the last one, after getting the double 40GB I switched to the $10 plan and still have 78gb left due to Covid / working from home…

  • ChipsChicky on 06/07/2020 - 00:33

    Hi OP …

    1) I switched on 29/06/2020 via 80$ starter plan but on 4/07/2020, its showing me Balance 60$ instead of 70$ ????

    2) Can i buy above plan, activate on 5th or 13th etc, get the double data,, gift to my Primary Belong No and cancel this ?

  • MeesusEff on 06/07/2020 - 15:04

    Is the double data ongoing?

    • pyramid on 15/07/2020 - 12:30

      yep depends on which date you are porting in.

      • Arthur Dunger on 15/07/2020 - 13:02

        Double data only happens on the 1st payment date.

  • mpederoon on 15/07/2020 - 12:29

    Just a bit confused about the Referral / Promo Code. It says in the ozbargain area where you put your code in that it's the same for both BROADBAND and MOBILE. But when I look at the Belong Introduce a friend T&Cs it says that you can only refer mobile to mobile or broadband to broadband? Anyone clarify?

    • pyramid on 15/07/2020 - 12:31
      +1

      should be same. I have both mobile and broadband with belong and have same referral code that i can pass on to friends.

      • mpederoon on 15/07/2020 - 12:32

        Thanks! Good to know!
