Question about Boost Mobile Expiry Date

Lozbargain-pashim on 18/03/2022 - 22:09

Earlier today I bought a $200 boost sim card from Officeworks and just now I noticed on the back of the sim kit that the expiry date is the 19th of March 2022 which is just tomorrow!!
I can't believe Officeworks are selling sim cards that expire within a day. It didn't even cross my mind to check the expiry date before purchasing as I know from experience that they don't expire until at least a couple months after purchase.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to activate after the expiry date?If not can I return it to Officeworks and get one that expires later?

    Imagine if Boost had a live chat feature.

      You may set up a case for it for future use (recharge to a new SIM), but the expired SIM cannot be revoked.

      Imagine if the live chat feature was actually useful…

    I would say activate it now.

      No way I will activate now and loose my current recharge.
      I might have to return it to Officeworks if it turns out that the sim is useless once it expires.

    Thats pretty bad, once it expires it's gone. I would take it back and order from this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/680659 the $200 one is $151 with code bonus + couple dollars postage.

    I also have same question, is the expiry date strictly enforced???

      Yes, I know there was a batch expired on 15 or 21 Dec. You may still be able to activate it at before 8am on the expiring day.
