    Hmm what would the cheapest Optus plan be I wonder - I'd be up for paying slightly more than Amazon Prime to get Optus Sport + Amazon Prime, but not $100s more

    Hmm. Might be worth signing up for Optus $7.50/month 5GB plan just for this.

          Doesn't that need an additional service though? As in, if you're already eligible why would you pay another $7.50/month?

            No. Buy a prepaid SIM, create a My Optus account.

            Get $7.50/month 5GB postpaid account.

                @Schumi5: Sorry just to confirm. We can buy any prepaid optus sim then create a my optus account and then add this 5gb service on top and we will be eligible for the subhub as it's an ongoing $7.50 a month?

                  @kane1990: I'm guessing what above person is trying to say is one gets an Optus prepaid plan so one can get an Optus account so one can get the Optus app and then one will have access to the deal that is through the Optus app which is the Optus post paid $15 data plan at half price i.e. $7.50, so one has a post paid plan to get the free 12 months Amazon subscription and other Optus freebies

                      @notJV: Oh ok gotcha, I guess its worth a try to activate without credit, or if you were to use Optus service anyway then 1 year worth of Prime is added bonus.

                  Took me 15mins, but totally worth it

            @landroverz7: Yeah I cancelled my Prime a few weeks ago as I only got it to get free shipping on one item, and I just tried to go through the process to link my account and it gave me "You already have an existing membership for this service. You can redeem this offer after your current membership has expired."

            Hopefully this offer sticks around until early September when my Prime runs out.

    On that note, I believe the cheapest non-contract month by month plan is $45 per month.

    Could you technically sign up for one month, get the 12 months of Amazon Prime and cancel?
    Basically a $14 saving over paying Amazon's $59 yearly subscription?

    Can anyone on Optus check if it's a 12 month or month by month option for the Amazon perk
    Thanks :)

      It just does the billing via your Optus account rather than directly to your card. The only downfall for signing up to Amazon Prime is forgetting to cancel the subscription in a year's time.
