        20 mb speed cap basically can do anything :)
        Netflix requires 5 Mbps
        YouTube requires 5-7 Mbps

        Download apps, checking email is capable at 20 mb too. Quite good

  • Xizor on 23/03/2021 - 17:30

    So free for a month, but I suppose we have to give them a valid credit card?
    If these are post paid, then do they do a credit check on you?

    • henrus on 23/03/2021 - 18:31
      +3

      It's a prepaid subscription, so you need to give a valid credit card and they do a $1 temporary charge. There is no credit check and payments are deducted monthly similar to something like Netflix.

  • mike0mike0 on 23/03/2021 - 17:39

    I believe you need to give a month notice before cancelling. So the deal is probably not for those who doesn't want to use Felix long term.

      "No lock-in contract, no exit fees

      It says you can cancel any time???

        When do they charge for the upcoming month??

        A week before the end of the month?

        • b3au on 23/03/2021 - 21:13

          Does Netflix charge a month in advance? Nor does Felix.

          Felix is a subscription service, you are charged on the same day every month.
          Just make sure you cancel/pause before the start of your next month.

    • jmytch on 23/03/2021 - 20:26

      Nope, I ported out to another provider before, instant. No need to give notice, and they are prepaid provider anyway!

    Been on the Felix plan for now over a month. Been using the sim in my 4G modem (Huawei B525s).
    Genuinely been plug in and enjoy. I have no issues streaming Netflix and running my smart home appliances.
    Just make sure you don't go over a 1tb of data usage a month - that will raise some flags…

      Apparently a limit was mentioned on their Fair Use Policy. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/9846627/redir
      Probably a good rule to stick with - wouldn't want to abuse such a good deal.

    From their Felix's Standard Form of Agreement (SFOA)

    "Your right to terminate Your Agreement

    You may terminate Your Agreement by telling Us at any time that You wish to do so or cancelling
    Your Subscription via the Felix Mobile App. Termination of Your Agreement and cancellation of
    Your Service will become effective immediately upon the expiry of Your current billing cycle, or
    earlier if You request to terminate earlier."

    • arcticmonkey on 23/03/2021 - 19:08

      So you can cancel a week after activating and keep it until the end of your billing period without charge?

        Pretty much like other provider's auto recharge feature then.

        • henrus on 23/03/2021 - 19:14

          Yep exactly, no difference to a monthly subscription to Netflix really.

    I want to move away from using hotspot from an old mobile.

    What 4G modems (with a Sim slot) do you guys use?

    • triviums on 23/03/2021 - 18:52
      +2

      Huawei B818

    • abadacus on 23/03/2021 - 21:26

      Why do you want to do this? Any benefits of 4g modem vs phone?
      Considering downsizing my internet connection to save money and mobile+ hotspot was my first option.

      • silverrat23 on 23/03/2021 - 21:35
        +1

        Mainly to use two bands (2.4 and 5) instead of the one from my old android phone.

        I was hoping it'll be faster and less congested than the phone. It struggles with two devices downloading at the same time (watching Netflix and downloading updates for the Xbox One, for example).

        • [Deactivated] on 24/03/2021 - 10:07
          +1

          Some phones also broadcast hotspots with two bands. Sometimes, phones may also be faster as a hotspot however that's relative to how good your 4g modem is and what your phone is.

  • henrus on 23/03/2021 - 18:30

    So for all those asking, you can buy the sim now and activate later.

    You simply download the app, enter your details, and promo code. You'll have to enter a card number which it verifies with a $1 temporary payment but it doesn't charge you yet.

    The sim cards are sent via express post and you have 2 years to activate it once received!

    https://help.felixmobile.com.au/support/solutions/articles/5…

    • Iluvfreebies on 23/03/2021 - 18:31

      Will it charge when it is activated or at the end of the month?

      • henrus on 23/03/2021 - 18:33
        +2

        I just ordered one, didn't charge me now although my valid credit card has $1 pending.

        It says in the app $0 now but $35 for the next month. So I guess if you really wanted to you could get it for 1 month and cancel before the next charge.

        • [Deactivated] on 23/03/2021 - 18:35

          depends on when they charge for the upcoming month.

          Most companies charge mid month for the next month

    • [Deactivated] on 23/03/2021 - 18:31

      Two years to activate a month?

    • jackofspade on 25/03/2021 - 17:38

      FAQ says 2 years but maybe the T&Cs of this promo stipulates that you have to activate by a certain date.

    • jmytch on 23/03/2021 - 20:28

      Not gonna happen, you can just port away to another provider and port back in with the promo code but why the hassle?

      • Jimbuscus on 23/03/2021 - 20:37

        These providers require the number be out of network for 30+ days to be considered new customer.

          Well if companies were upfront about what limits actually apply for “unlimited” services he wouldn’t have to do the experiment to find out what the limit is.

              @FutureTech: unlimited: not limited or restricted in terms of number, quantity, or extent

              It should not be up to the customer to try and guess what a company determines "fair use and common sense" to mean.

              • AFOS on 24/03/2021 - 09:54

                @PAEz: It's called sales puff.

                "A 'sales puff' refers to exaggerated sales talk. They are not intended by the speaker to be taken literally and a reasonable person would recognise this. As they do not constitute a 'representation' in law or a term, there is no remedy if they turn out to be false."

                • PAEz on 24/03/2021 - 18:15

                  @AFOS: Ive heard of sales puff before and think its ridiculous. It assumes that a reasonable person can make a reasonable decision on whether something said to them is puff. But as any scammer could tell you alot of people are not able to make reasonable decisions…..oh, the prince of nigeria will give me millions if I send him some money, sounds reasonable to me. And then on something like this, how is it reasonable to assume that the average person has enough knowledge of the subject to know that getting true unlimited service is unreasonable. Also just because a person can make the decision that it is just puff doesnt mean that such statements wont have an effect on them subconsciously. If it doesnt have any effect on the viewer than why would they bother saying crap like "Best movie ever made".

                  And I dont know what "As they do not constitute a 'representation' in law or a term, there is no remedy if they turn out to be false."" means?
