Was checking out rewards for doweyy's 10,000 point deal and noticed that the Belong $80 Starter Packs were down from 10,000 points to 2,000 points again. Same as previous deal. Thanks to bozbargain:

$100 is enough for either 4 monthly cycles of the $25 plan (20GB/month) or a mix of eg 1 month at $25 (20GB) and then 5 months of $15 (3GB/month). Data rolls over so you can start on a $25 plan, downgrade to $15 and still keep the left over data for subsequent months. You have to activate on the $25 plan (as a minimum) to start off with, then you can move down to $15 (the $15 one isn't available for your first month).

Ends 6 Jun or when sold out.

      Not a rumour, they were gonna change mine at end of April so I sold off all my data balance and moved to catch. You might as well activate and sell the data after two months, prob like $50 worth

          Yup, you can sell your unused data if you’re a Belong user. See classifieds and you can see a lot of ppl selling their data through data transferring

    • Embaloo on 10/05/2022 - 17:25

      Just got moved from $10 to $15 a month ago, so frustrating!! It's been the best plan ever (referral credits for 1 year, roll-over, buy able data, amazing data speed 😭), now up by 50%, pretty ridiculous.

    • WatchNerd on 10/05/2022 - 16:14
      +1

      On the standard starter packs you have 1 year from the purchase date. I'm guessing these are the same.

      • hamza23 on 10/05/2022 - 16:17
        +1

        Any experience whether that is enforced? I wondered if they actually set expiry dates on sims as they are purchased, and without actually writing the specific expiry date anywhere.

        • WatchNerd on 10/05/2022 - 16:19
          +1

          When you go through the checkout at Coles for example, the operator scans something on the pack which must register it with Belong that it's been purchased.

          Not sure if it's enforced.

        • netsurfer on 10/05/2022 - 16:29
          +1

          It is enforced as I recently tossed a few Telstra $2 SIMs and a few Boost $2 SIMs away (expired). I don't have the guts to try Belong ones yet (i.e. let them expire) as those are not $2 ones.

          If I don’t use the $80 SIM card will it expire?
          The credit will expire if the SIM hasn’t been activated within a 12 month period of receiving the $80 free SIM card.

          • RTY on 11/05/2022 - 10:10

            @Pricebeat: 12 months?
            I signed up nbn back in November and didn't activate the sim. Last month I checked the sim package and it said expiry 31/12/2021 so I threw it in the bin :(

            • mountains on 03/06/2022 - 10:24

              @RTY: It will expire as per the date mentioned on SIM. However, you need to contact Belong support & submit the proof of purchase (in your case, November) & they will reactivate it again for you to use.

              • RTY on 03/06/2022 - 10:33

                @mountains: I already threw it in the bin so I dont bother now

  • JAF on 10/05/2022 - 16:17

    Was also just looking through their rewards and noticed they still have iPhone XS Max 64GB for 521,000 points! Don’t know who Telstra expects to pay roughly $1450 for an almost 4 year old iPhone with only 64GB storage??

    • CyberMurning on 10/05/2022 - 16:23

      thats our telstra, if you havent notice. high cost, high salaries, low service quality

    • netsurfer on 10/05/2022 - 16:35

      You don't redeem for phones (unless there is some crazy special). There was a deal where you basically need to setup direct debit and you get enough points to exchange for a pair of Galaxy Buds.

      Tel$tra's most recent $699 for iPhone 11 deal was okay (can use it to price match at OfficeWorks).

  • sd4399340 on 10/05/2022 - 16:30

    I got this starter kit from the previous deal and ported my number to Belong, do I need to port out and port in again if I get this pack again?

    • WatchNerd on 10/05/2022 - 16:36
      +1

      This is a starter pack, it's not a recharge voucher. You could port out to Kogan 60GB 90 days if you don't mind the Voda network.

      You'll need to use a different email when porting back to Belong if you want the $20 referral credit.

    • hamza23 on 10/05/2022 - 16:38

      Yeah you need to port out for a month, then you can port back to Belong.

      Something like a Kogan Mobile $1 / $2.90 for a 1 month plan, then port back in to Belong after a month with your next starter kit.

      • jimojr on 10/05/2022 - 20:43

        No, you can port back anytime, I ported back a few times less than a week.

          YHA ($35/n Backpackers) just off Hastings St, 5min walk to beach @Noosa Heads. Listed 100 year old wooden guest house in some forest.

          Enjoyed it & made an effective profit on week stay in Noosa Heads! And travelled almost free.

              @nrodg11: The Nomads Noosa Youth Resort is the one with the bad reputation.

              Up the hill at Noosa Junction.
              They are cramming in a lot of long termers working in local tourist industry. So many there! Its a real mess in rooms. As shown on TV reports!
              People escaped there to relax on the huge wooden verandahs of the YHA!

              YHA doesn't take long term stays (usually 14d max). Its for genuine travellers. So few there. Set in a listed historic building, it's not a party place. Not even a bar now. And much closer to beach.
              Suited me - as an experienced traveller.
              Found it great. Clean, great staff.

      Not initially. Start on the $25 then move down to $15 for subsequent months.

      You have to activate on the $25 plan (as a minimum) to start off with, then you can move down to $15 (the $15 one isn't available for your first month).

    • BargainsGrabber on 10/05/2022 - 17:28
      +4

      You’ve answered your own question :)

    • Italkdigital on 10/05/2022 - 17:33

      Firstly to join Telstra plus you need a telstra service, I'm not sure if one needs a Telstra service to keep Telstra plus active/alive as I've always had some sort of Telstra service and they have been Telstra prepaid services,

      Maybe you could buy a Telstra $2 starter prepaid pack to start of Telstra plus but you'll be starting from zero points, but they gave me 10,000 points last month supposedly for a bad service of some sort

      It's not targeted, but you need Telstra plus with at least 2,000 points to buy this 2,000 points offer Belong $80 starter pack

      Plenty on eBay usually discounted fairly

      Here you go Telstra offering free 10,000 points when you signup to Telstra Plus Market,.. of course you'll need a Telstra service of some sort prepaid or postpaid mobile plan,…
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/699323

      Edit: Actually it's 20,000 total bonus points, as a bonus 10,000 points if one makes an eligible purchase

          You have 2,000 points in your Telstra plus account?, try signing up to join Telstra Plus Market as its a new Telstra service, you could grab 10,000 or 20,000 Telstra points

    3 months plan credit when you activate on Belong $25/mth 20GB mobile plan.

    So essentially you get 3 months on a single $25 recharge?

    • ballistykx on 10/05/2022 - 18:55

      Not for a current subscriber with a recharge, this is for a new subscriber.

    • Italkdigital on 10/05/2022 - 18:58
      +1

      Plus $5 left over for your 4 month if my maths is right lolz,.. yes new subscribers only as ballistykx stated above,.. this ain't $80 credit for existing Belong customers 🤪

      Edit: anyone know if this is a one off purchase or example I have over 10,000 points can I buy 5x of these?

      • hamza23 on 10/05/2022 - 19:10

        You can purchase multiple but you will just need to do multiple orders.

        • Italkdigital on 10/05/2022 - 19:28

          Thanks for that, got actually just over 11,000 points and should get another 10,000 points for signing up with Telstra Plus Market so I wonder if there's anything worth buying through Telstra store with 21,000 Telstra points I'll have to do a search, problem with these Belong $80 starter packs they expire in 12 months

          So wondering also what are these $80 Belong starter packs worth selling outright, people selling them on Ozbargain somewhere? Or I guess eBay fb marketplace or Gumtree?

          Limits on introductions
          You can’t invite friends on a Belong data plan
          It’s only for customers on a standard Belong mobile or internet service.

    • gizzard on 28/05/2022 - 17:41

      In your post in that other thread you said:

      "That way, if there's at least one pack left as the six month mark approaches, it can activated as another voice service, the remaining data from the first voice service gifted to the second before cancelling it, then continue on with any other remaining packs."

      I don't understand what the 6 month mark part means. Why does this make it better than your first thoughts that you posted in that thread?

        Unless you've picked up some more referrals along the way, after six months you'll have exhausted the credit and will need to stump up $15 per month if you want to keep using it.

    I think Belong is now trying to stop data buying/selling. I sent some data to my son this morning and a message popped up that this transferred data will expire when the recipient's renewal date comes up.
    So if I was to buy 50GB from someone, any unused data from that 50GB will expire at my monthly plan renewal.
    Anyone else experienced that?

    • huntress_love on 11/05/2022 - 12:33

      that doesn't make sense, if it's the recipient's renewal date, it should be his not yours, isn't it?

      • Maq on 11/05/2022 - 12:54

        I pulled out the policy and looks like data deletion is applicable only in case of data plans, and not mobile plans.

        • Maq on 11/05/2022 - 12:58
          +1

          Here is the policy,
          "Unlimited data banking comes with all of our mobile plans, but is not available for our data plans where data expires at the end of each billing period.
          For mobile plans, you can roll over and keep your unused data, including any bonus or gifted data in your data bank each month as long as you pay on time.
          Things you should know: You'll lose all your banked data when payment is more than 25 days overdue or if you cancel your Belong mobile service."

            @Maq: So as long as your on a data plan and gift to a mobile plan you can retain the data. Just doesn't work when gifting data plan to data plan it just expires at end of month. That's my understanding. So the above method of gifting data plans and building up to 2tb of data should work
