Can Shopback Rep confirm this deal? Not sure you have to wait remain active with Circles life for 90 days or something to get this cashback
You must activate the SIM within 30 days of purchase & remain a customer for 60 days to be eligible for Cashback.
Cheers!
Thanks Rep. @jassie1987- Please this note in the deal.
You almost needs to be active for 60 days and which may need you pay $45 in overall (3*15$)
Your calculation is slightly wrong mate.
$15 is for the 1st renewal, and then it’s $25 ongoing per month.
So overall cost is: $15 (for 1st month) + $25 (2nd month) + $25 (3rd month) = $65
The rep confirmed that you need to be active for 60 days and you can’t terminate your plan any earlier, therefore you’ll be billed for the 3rd month to let the $50 cashback tracked
@seanbaussie: I was referring to @surya12 calculation earlier and I made the same comment with an alternative calculation below
so $20 for 60 days
or is it possible to become a pay as u go customer after the first month?
More like $30 as you need to include the 3rd month to let the cashback tracked before cancelling with Circles.life
@BargainsGrabber: Still a profit of $20 just for signing up, and activating the SIM once it arrives in the mail. Not bad as a second phone number for 3 months.
Circles has $10 for referral not sure if that would ruin the shopback payout or not
do they do credit checks
yes.. all postpaid carriers do credit check
Circle life is the only one done credit checks on me which showed on credit report, no other post paid carries did that to me as far as I know.
Vodafone did it for me for a kids watch but was in another reporting agency from the one with Circles on.
But not going back with Circles cos they've had so many issues in the past
Guaranteed? Who guaranteed this?
Shopback.. Check link
A wise person once said: "There are no guarantees in life".
so you get paid $30 to do a credit check.
wtf they did a credit check on me lmao, i had no clue they were going to perform a credit check up until i received an email about it .. not made clear at all during the sign up process
Yeah it got me too so haven't been with them for a year and a bit now. It's in their terms and conditions.
But most other online prepaid don't do credit checks
i was under the impression that credit checks had to be a bit more obvious when performed instead of hidden in T&Cs
That's a fair point. When you sign up in store to a contract etc, they tell you they're going to do a credit check
they ask u for ur licence when u sign up
well yeah a prepaid service will ask for your license as well, its a requirement for all telcos for ID checks
Yup can confirm as this was introduced by the telco regulators
@BargainsGrabber: ID checks have been around for ages. However, not all telcos actually implement it properly. Catch Connect comes to mind.
When you setup a service you can use whatever name and DOB you like. The fun begins when you try to port out to a network with strict ID checks.
Are they still a PITA to port out from?
That was where my bad experience with them previously came from. Don't try and port out when approaching the end of a billing cycle.
It took me two weeks, lots of calls and threats to involve the TIO before they finally let me take my number to another provider. For quite a while, i was expecting to lose the number I'd had for nearly 20 years.
I didn't really have problems. I ported out to kogan then back in within 2 days, I did have to call bucause I chose the wrong plan type when cancelling (prepaid instead of post paid), agent was helpful and knew what he was doing.
Honestly happy with their $8 48gb plan
Circles will make you go circles, stay away
Not worth the credit check!!
Thanks shopback got both cashback from magzter and PIA..
Circles is with Optus network right? or was it Vodafone network?
Edit: Actually checked its Optus but the $10 plan isn't bad they give one 5gb of data, now any penalties going over data limit BRB LOL
The network is the biggest issue. Really poor quality. I am not sure whether it is Optus broadly or something to with Circles .
Surprising no one, Shopback didn't track and then rejected my cashback for this even though it hasn't even been 3 weeks since I signed up.
What is the $5 plan? I can see a $10 plan
