    the Coles Mobile sale is just in time any recommend this or $80.10 Catch Connect 365 Day Plan 60GB. I don't make international calls very frequent maybe a couple of times a year.

    • USER DC on 18/01/2021 - 19:57

      You answered your question.

      Coles is only really good if you want international calls otherwise just save that rest of 26 dollars

      • Wardaddy on 18/01/2021 - 21:59

        Er, where'd you get 26 from?

        • USER DC on 18/01/2021 - 22:35

          Sorry I meant 16 ****

          80-96

          But you get the point
          You choose if international call is really needed then pay 16 extra otherwise save it

          • Wardaddy on 18/01/2021 - 22:47

            @USER DC: $1.33 a month for unlimited international to 15 countries is too good for me. But then my wife and I both call a lot of o/seas people.

    Great, literally just bought one today for $120!

    • Utsav23 on 18/01/2021 - 18:09

      Is it available already? Which one did you buy, $120?

      • yht on 18/01/2021 - 18:10

        Yes, bought the full price one at Coles

        • Utsav23 on 18/01/2021 - 18:11

          Great. I will go to nearby Coles and see if it's available.

          • yht on 18/01/2021 - 19:44

            @Utsav23: If you can wait, you will only paid $96 on Wednesday though

    The kids use both (one each) - I bought a Coles one on sale for $99 as we needed a new plan and the Catch one wasn't one sale. The Catch one came back on sale and with another 10% off using UniDays code and $2 odd via Cash Rewards, I bought one last week.

    Both Optus and both seem fine, so I'd go on price then.

    I personally had Catch for 1 year when it was on the old 50% a few years back and service and speed was always good in Melbourne.

  • Utsav23 on 18/01/2021 - 18:08

    What do you guys think about the $120 coles 365 plan? Is it any good? Optus over Telstra? I definitely need international inclusions. I am not in a hurry though. My sim only expires in the next 2 months or so.

    what does it mean?. Activate bonus SIM within 30 days of purchase or by the date advertised on a promotion, whichever is earliest. Is it okay if I buy now and activate it after 3 months or so? will it work?

    • Homr on 18/01/2021 - 18:13

      Telstra has better coverage.

      I used to work in this dead spot in Western Sydney where Optus coverage was dead but Telstra coverage worked, so it was always Telstra over Optus for me.

      • Utsav23 on 18/01/2021 - 18:15

        Thats the reason I m hesitating to buy Coles one from Optus.

          Yeh, I could not wait to get out of Optus and I ended up forfeiting 3 months worth and switched over to Boost (telstra)

        • JediJan on 18/01/2021 - 18:19

          Optus has had issues our area, but we are sticking with the Kogan Mobile 365 Day Flex 100GB for $135 pa. Unlimited text and calls within Aus but no international. Uses Vodafone which where we travel to and from (Melb & SE Vic) has been fine.

    • mecind on 18/01/2021 - 19:52

      I activated the $99 today, 28 days after i got it. The process going well. When i was trying to call , i get message "insufficient funds". Online chat. Got it fixed in 30 mins.

    • freestyle18 on 19/01/2021 - 08:48

      When I was out on my road trip out towards Wilson's prom and other areas I usually had reception and my gf did not (optus). If that helps. I still get sometimes odd patches in cities and stuff. I'm on the old boost plan so will likely recharge it unless something else comes up

  • helloeatty on 18/01/2021 - 18:27

    I’m already Optus network, can I still use it without getting a new number or still need to port out and back?

    • Juggernauto on 18/01/2021 - 19:05

      AFAIK you can keep the number but from experience porting within same network tends to take longer, no idea why

      • wangasm on 18/01/2021 - 19:14
        +1

        Depends on the provider. I've ported near-instantly between Optus providers before without issue.

        • helloeatty on 18/01/2021 - 19:35

          Do you just chat with the online Optus customer service team if wanna keep the current # within the Optus ?

      • mecind on 18/01/2021 - 19:54

        I have same problem when porting from voda to kogan, it wont let me. but with coles today, 5 mins setup

  • Rlogarisation on 18/01/2021 - 19:27

    Does it mean 60GB each month or 60GB for 12 months in total?

    • JediJan on 18/01/2021 - 19:30

      I assume 60GB per year, not month.

      • Rlogarisation on 18/01/2021 - 19:33

        ok, then it's a reasonable price, I think 8GB per month is sort of not enough?

        • GordonR on 18/01/2021 - 19:43

          Where do you get 8Gb month?

          Isn’t it $8 per month for 5 Gb per month?

    For those who want more data (120GB), might be worth thinking about the $120 deal for the $150 plan in the catalogue too.

  • jmc787 on 18/01/2021 - 20:26

    Do the $120 SIMs need to be activated within a certain timeframe ? I will be in need of something like this in April

    • Jadeja on 18/01/2021 - 20:49

      Same here. My boost card expires next month.

      • Utsav23 on 18/01/2021 - 21:02

        Hi Jadeja. I have the same question. Someone, please clarify. Shall we keep our sim for some time (say 4-5 months) and activate it?

    • alwaysloveabargain on 18/01/2021 - 21:15

      Had the same question.
      As per the catalogue, needs to be activated within 30 days of purchase.

    Probably a silly question but would the 20 off 200 spend stack if I wanted to purchase two prepaid sims plus a few random things to get up to the 200 spend?

    • kwonsie on 18/01/2021 - 21:15

      would also like to know and if paying with gift card is also a thing?

  • starionx on 18/01/2021 - 21:28
    +2

    I was thinking of getting one of these… until I read the reviews.
    Couldn't stop laughing at this one -

    "If you love any1 ever in this world, skip this garbage provider. What I'm saying is, every damn person on this planet should skip this trash service.

    Speeds and coverage so bad you'll keep restarting your phone thinking maybe this'll help. Nope; you'll eventually gauge your eyes out and enter a psych ward then proceed buy as many $2 coles sims as you can then somehow use them to burn the building down.

    '4G' my a**, they should change the label to '1/4G'.

    Biggest mistake to swap from Boost."

    • Wardaddy on 18/01/2021 - 21:50
      +1

      I and my wife have both been with Optus, Voda, and Boost. All 3 worked perfectly fine. I'm always suspicious of "reviews" like this one, they clearly have some kind of axe to grind.

    • wangasm on 18/01/2021 - 21:51

      Take reviews/ratings from Productreview with a large grain of salt. Even Boost Mobile, an Ozbargain favourite, is similarly rated at 2.2. I don't even trust suspiciously high ratings on that site, like Moose Mobile.
      Speed & coverage is the same between all Optus MVNOs, you just need to know that it is highly dependant on the area you'll be using it in. (Same goes with Telstra)

    • USER DC on 20/01/2021 - 15:27

      I honestly do kinda regret leaving boost too. It was a great deal. Wish i could have that same deal again, $150 plan for $135 on special. And free google assistant calling integration. with telstra network. Going to catch now though, will come back to boost thought after catch for sure

  • cxy0614 on 18/01/2021 - 22:19

    Does coles mobile work with wifi-calling?

  • backupper1 on 18/01/2021 - 22:40
    • took 3 days to activate. CC is slow, online chat form asks all details and after your chat starts the CC asks you to type the same details again.
    • even with delayed activation, refused compensation of any type.
    • international number if you dial, other side sees a local number on the screen and call quality is garbage.
    • network coverage is patchy, forget acceptable coverage for remote or regional areas.
    • if you get good network (all bars), 4g is fast.
    • general call quality is ok.

    Avoid this crap. Lesson learnt, you get what you pay for and Telstra is the best one, hands down, in all regards.

    • Wardaddy on 18/01/2021 - 22:51

      Depends where you live. YMMV.

    • WayneOZ on 19/01/2021 - 09:45

      Telstra is garbage in my area, 1/4 bar for most of the time. Optus and Voda are fine. But on the train to city, Telstra is slightly better than the other two. So YMMV.

  • Duram on 18/01/2021 - 22:59

  • lostn on 18/01/2021 - 23:21

    Catch has the same deal for $89, both on the same network. Better yet, you can order online and not have to go from store to store to see if they have stock. Coles usually doesn't have much of these.

    • USER DC on 20/01/2021 - 15:24

      Not the same deal, no o/seas calls on Catch.

      • jmc787 on 20/01/2021 - 22:10

        Agreed the coles deal includes unlimited calls and unlimited SMS to 15 countries, that is a significant difference between catch and coles

    Not only is it hot garbage Optus, but a reseller. Moreover only 60GB over 12 months. Avoid like the plague!

  • KRiSX on 19/01/2021 - 07:29

    After a cheap sim for my wife's car, this is tempting but I'd rather a Telstra based carrier… Any opinions/options?

    • yaziyo on 19/01/2021 - 09:49

      If you want Telstra take a look at Boost. Similar plan to this with a bit more data but a bit more expensive.

      That being said, if you're in a city, my experience has been that it's a diceroll which of Optus, Telstra or Voda works best for a particular locastion, so I personally wouldn't care too much about that.

      • KRiSX on 19/01/2021 - 16:17

        Rarely ever in the city, that's the thing, might try this out and see how it goes.

    • Steptoe on 19/01/2021 - 18:36

    • wangasm on 19/01/2021 - 20:01

      If you need low usage/low cost, Belong sims always go on sale (Telstra Wholesale network)
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/belong.com.au

      • Wardaddy on 24/01/2021 - 13:05

        Why would anyone pay $15 a month for local and O/seas calls and 1GB when this deal is $8 for 5 GB? Seriously, paying almost double for 20% of the data?

        • wangasm on 24/01/2021 - 13:32

          That's not how Belong works. There's data rollover so you activate the $40 plan for $15 the first month giving you 40gb then switch to the $10/1GB a month plan for the next few months which is paid for with the referral credit. Over 3 months that's 42gb for $15, or if you want to stay longer it's 12 months 51gb for $105. You will likely have someone on OzB use your referral too over this time (mine was used twice) so the cost may go down even more.

  • joonjac on 19/01/2021 - 09:28

    does prepaid card purchase get counted for bonus flybuys challenge?

    Switching from Boost activation took 10mins exactly, have made 3 calls to UK with it and so far call quality has been great ( better than Boost was)
    I get a better Optus signal inside my house than Telstra, so far really happy with it.

    Might jump on this deal and switch the wife over from boost as it expires soon

    I should of got the 60GB plan as only average 3 - 4gb a month

      Any chance you can do a quick divert all incoming calls to another number to see if that works please?

  • pandadude on 19/01/2021 - 11:32

    From what I am reading you need to buy the $120 recharge and a $2 sim card for this deal.
    So the question is how long does the recharge last for?

    • pyreusk on 19/01/2021 - 15:52

      In the catalogue it says "Receive a bonus Coles Mobile $2 SIM in the same transaction", so I assume you get a free sim but has a 30 days activation expiry, when you buy the recharge. And it say the voucher has a 365 expiry. You can try to activate the bonus sim, after 30 days, and see if it will still allow you to activate. Otherwise, I assume you can get a new $2 sim from Coles, activate that and recharge it with the voucher. Can anyone confirm this?

      • USER DC on 20/01/2021 - 15:23

        Didnt work for me Went in store to buy just that sim, got some extra stuff too. price is coming as undiscounted, and staff not helping out in anyway.
        So left everything there for staff and left that store. Because they wouldn't honor customers what their website say, customers dont need to honor them money.

          The discount is on RECHARGES ONLY
          If you go to the checkout with a $120 Sim, the price will be $120, no discount.
          If you go to the checkout with a $2 Sim, scan that and then add a recharge to the value of $120, the discount gets applied and the total price will be $96

      • TheAussian on 20/01/2021 - 14:49

        You guys beat me to it! Just got back from Coles and was told that the offer is on Coles Mobile Recharge only and NOT on a new SIM + Plan package. I got the feeling that the lady knew nothing about it and had to call the manager. How about buying the $2 Coles SIM and then recharging it with the discounted recharge voucher? Would that work? That would mean $2 + $96 (discounted recharge pack) = $98 if it can be pulled off?!

        Still $120 is not bad personally as I am currently paying $30/m for Amaysim. I need international calling so this offer is blood attractive. I have read hideous reviews of Coles mobile so can anyone care to comment on the service please? Cheers

        • RichardL on 20/01/2021 - 16:10

        I told them same thing even should them online. But the staff is just so arrogant, and unhelpful. They kept saying
        price is what it is, you might be needing to do it online but instore the price is what it is

        So i left that store, it's my local store but whatever the case not going coles for a long long time, they deserve it for their rudeness.

        Sorry not your fault dealbot, but coles has just been so sh**
