    so we can pay this with catch gift cards?

    • Pricebeat on 09/07/2020 - 12:37

      Yes I did. But not if you are paying with zip pay.

      • andresampras on 09/07/2020 - 13:13

        Can I buy one big catch egift card and use it to pay for separate prepaid plans for myself and family members?

        • Pricebeat on 09/07/2020 - 14:03

          Yes you can but maximum gift card sold is $100. You can use up to 5 in one transaction

          • andresampras on 09/07/2020 - 14:07

            @Pricebeat: Suncorp rewards site says amount must be between $10 - $500

            I entered $500; checkout says 'Catch $500 digital eGift card'

            • Pricebeat on 09/07/2020 - 14:09

              @andresampras: That’s good to know. I only buy from coles etc. and they only sell $20, $50, $100.

              It should work and you will have remaining amount in gift card

              • andresampras on 09/07/2020 - 14:10

                @Pricebeat: For reference - Suncorp listing for Catch eGift cards says they are valid for 36 months from purchase

                • truetypezk on 09/07/2020 - 19:32

                  @andresampras: Usually when I buy catch giftcards from Suncorp it will be fully used within minutes:) The ability to purchase exact amount down to cents is really good.

    wow, remind me again why i'm paying $60 a month for Vodafone…what is the drawbacks of these type of plans?

    • Cheeper on 09/07/2020 - 12:42

      Coverage is better than Voda. Good co. to deal with also.

    • Lukian on 09/07/2020 - 12:50

      Nothing. Support can be worse than top tier/small providers, but you're already with Vodafone. And technically support isn't required for a mobile service aside from porting.

      • Cluelessly on 09/07/2020 - 12:53

        Is porting out still an issue? I remember hearing Catch Connect had that issue early.

        • Gavman on 10/07/2020 - 09:20

          you probably read some dimwits post that probably had dodgy details. Port can take 3-4 days if you need to phone up and update ur details so they can port u. I port out every 3 months to Kogan and back again to catch.. port usually takes 1 or 2 minutes from time ive requested the port online

          • Pub Envelope on 10/07/2020 - 18:20

            @Gavman: I ported from Catch to Amaysim and it took me close to 2 weeks. Was bs. Porting the other way was like 10 mins.

        current Catch Connect user here.
        You can at least get support with Catch when you need it, unlike with Vodafone. You can call Catch and speak an Australian call centre!

        The only downside of Catchconnect: no VoLTE and no VoWiFi. If you don't what this means, you probably don't need it.

        • Jackson on 09/07/2020 - 15:21

          Even if you do know what it means you probably don't need it

            @Jackson: some people have very poor mobile coverage at home. They sure know what VoWiFi means.
            some people use phone for data tethering. They sure know what VoLTE means.
            ….

            • Jackson on 09/07/2020 - 18:06

              @vrsac: Probably: most people

              Some: a smaller fraction

        • Ice-Eyes on 09/07/2020 - 19:19

          My wife uses VoWiFi. Pretty sure it works fine

      • banjoab on 09/07/2020 - 15:15

        Well Optus support is some of the worst I've ever dealt with so there isn't any benefit there going with the bigger company.

        • Jared17 on 09/07/2020 - 16:01

          Telstra support is also shitty nowadays. Four days and chat support still not able to port over my number. Disgusted with Telstra

          • banjoab on 09/07/2020 - 16:43
            +1

            @Jared17: Same with Optus. I bought their $150 plan which is the same as this one last week but didn't receive it. Called them on Monday about it and they told me they ran out of sim cards because of covid so they are on backorder and dont know when it will actually be sent, so I should buy a $2 sim instead. Did that then called back again and they said I had to port my number in first and I had to do it over the phone, that took slightly over 2 hours because the person doing it made so many mistakes. Finally got it done and had to call back to get the credit transferred to the new sim and they kept transferring me to different departments because they all said they had no access to my account. Over all my calls to them I was transfered 17 times. Eventually got through to a supervisor who put me on hold for minute and they never came back, waited 40 minutes before someone answered and said they would call me back with details. The did call me back to say they were processing my refund. I gave up and accepted it, then saw this deal so besides wasting a week without any phone I'm better off.

      Virtually nothing.

      Going on contract is basically a telco tax for people who can't afford to pay up front.

    • bargaineer on 09/07/2020 - 14:16
      +3

      I would argue that Vodafone's metro network is better than Optus', especially with the upcoming spectrum injection and integration of TPGs small cell network into Vodafone's.

      Also, with CatchConnect (or really any other MVNO except Boost), you miss out on VoLTE and VoWifi which can be very valuable features, depending on how you use your phone.

      • Maxxjet on 09/07/2020 - 20:40

        I am curious on VoLTE and VoWifi, what are they good for?

        • Italkdigital on 11/07/2020 - 01:05

          VoLTE = Voice portion of call is over LTE (4G) network not 3G network

          (Note: to those that don't know when 3G officially closes in a few years if your 4G mobile doesn't support VOLTE then voice calls won't work, though data should👍😀🤪, I'm guessing cheap nasty 4G mobiles might not support this, NOTE: my Note 4 from what 7 years ago does)

          VoWifi = Voice portion off your call is over your mobile WiFi connection (you can make and receive calls/SMS over Wifi), like mentioned above handy if at work or were ever your 4G/3G is poor of non existent, I'm not sure if your mobile needs too support this but for sure your Telco provider needs too

    • Gavman on 10/07/2020 - 09:18

      Cos you're a noob

  • vawiyoci on 09/07/2020 - 12:39

    How is the Catch Optus network coverage in Brisbane vs Boost? Is it possible to buy this SIM first then wait about 2-3 months before I port/activate it?

    • Mooshygil on 09/07/2020 - 12:45

    • ezym0ney6 on 09/07/2020 - 12:59

      yes, just talked to a rep online and they provide standard response which = you need to port out and back in to be eligible. this sucks

    • ozbargainerlife1 on 09/07/2020 - 13:00

      Yes

    • zzyss on 09/07/2020 - 13:25

      Can you do this instantly though (or as long as the port takes), i.e. without having to wait 30 days or whatever? Assuming you're creating a new account too… but same number obviously.

  • ewand7 on 09/07/2020 - 12:51

    IMO Boost network and support is worth the extra ~$30.

    • vrsac on 09/07/2020 - 17:54

      you forgot to mention Unlimited Overseas calls, MMS and SMS (certain destinations). I find that handy in my job since I only need to carry one phone.

      So is zip zap like After Pay?

      • mkowarkski on 10/07/2020 - 10:48

        Yes. Zip Pay is like After Pay :) Zip Zap Zup Zep Zop :D

        • nightelves on 10/07/2020 - 12:26

          So can you pay in full or payment is split over so many months?

          • mkowarkski on 10/07/2020 - 13:38

            @nightelves: Yes. But there is a minimum payment, depending on your credit. I think for 1000 credit in your account, minimum payment is $80.
            Also, if you don't pay in full after a certain period, you should pay interst as well.

            Only used it two times.

      You have up to 30 days to activate it from the date of purchase. The current discount runs until the 22nd of July, so I don't think it'll work if you need it in 4 months.

  • OZBsince2018 on 09/07/2020 - 14:40

    Just to clarify, T&C say something like “you have to activate within 30 days of purchase, or the date advertised in the offer”. Since there is a date mentioned in this offer i.e. 22nd July.
    Does that mean we have to activate by 22nd July, or this date is for purchasing this and activation can be done within 30 days from the purchase date?
    Just purchased it today, so just wanted to confirm about activation. Thanks.

      Purchase by 22/7/20 and activate within 30 days, ie. 21/8/20 in this case.

      However I forgot to activate the last promotional SIM I bought from Catch until a few months later and it still worked. Was a 30 day $49 prepaid plan that I bought for $5 I think.

      Has anyone else had a similar experience?

          $49.90
          / 30 days
          You've got 28 days remaining. Your service will not be automatically recharged. Turn on auto recharge. Your plan inclusions expire on:
          Expiry: 06/08/2020

          I consider myself lucky and wouldn't risk it with this deal, in case it doesn't activate after 30 days you'd be out a lot more!

          My next question, are there any SIMs that allow porting to without a mandatory recharge?

    • Junk Sifter on 09/07/2020 - 19:18

      Reread the T&Cs and and now I'm not sure.

      You must activate your chosen prepaid plan on catchconnect.com.au within 30 days of purchase or by the date advertised on the promotion (whichever is earlier).

      The same promo on Catch Connect reads:

      You must activate within 30 days of purchase or by the date advertised in the promotion (whichever is earlier). Offer may be withdrawn at any time.

      So may actually be 22/7/20. 🤔

  • c550hunter on 09/07/2020 - 15:32

      Similar situation here.

      I know you have to port out and then port back in using a new and different account (email address, presumably), but I'd like someone who's done it before to confirm that it works if you do it straight away.

      Someone showed me this: https://www.lycamobile.com.au/en/free-sim-offer/

      Waiting for it to arrive, and then will try port out, port in (under a new/different account but keeping the same number). I haven't been able to find anyone else to confirm that this will work so I'll report back if it works for me.

      EDIT: otherwise I think $5 SIM from Aldi instore would be your best bet for quickest (not cheapest). Unsure if any $2 SIMs will let you activate without additional credit?

      • grygryjack on 11/07/2020 - 00:39

        cool let us know how you go!

        So every time when catch has promotion for 'new customer', a new account with different email + different carrier is required?

        • Italkdigital on 11/07/2020 - 09:57
          +1

          The fact your with another company/Telco makes you a new customer irrespective if you had your number previously with Catch, why the hop skip and jump with porting back and forth,.. so yes you can use the same email,. Well everything else will be the same, name, address, mobile number and your ID check👍
