    40 GB Optus SIM is $10 at Coles if you just want one for a month (visitors). Reduced from $30.

      The advantage is… It's FREE!
      Amaysim allows incoming calls & SMS for a year after the 28d use.
      So gives a free number & over a year of use to gain Deals here.

        Do you mind sending the link? I didn't know about this thanks!

        Edit: Does the plan just switch to a pay as you go thing with $0 credit but still expires in a year?

          Yes - PAYG after 28d.

          In your account:
          Change payment method to BPay now
          Turn off auto recharge after activated

          Set up with PayPal - can remove auto payment permission there.

          Been doing that with Amaysim for years of free SIMs

      But this is free :/

      Usually lots of SIM offers available.

      Nice offer if a Telstra Plus member…
      $80 Belong SIMs @2000pts ea
      Each SIM can be used for 6mth of calls & data, or 500GB as Data SIM. Data is bankable / transferable on both.

      Ways to get extra points for effectively FREE SIMs!

      10k pts for adding card to Telstra Plus market
      Free Gift (Points, Accessories, TV or Other Random Gift) for Telstra Plus Members @ Telstra Plus
      Took a very cheap backpacker holiday in February & earnt 20k pts per night. For 5n @$35/n, 100k pts is a lot of SIMs etc for very little money & holiday in Noosa!

      • thekensai on 19/05/2022 - 09:02

        does the 500GB of data from a data sim last forever once transferred to a calls & data sim? i've heard people saying the data quota from a data sim will be cleared at end of current billing cycle of the calls & data sim

        • INFIDEL on 19/05/2022 - 09:07

          Data is rolled over to next cycle if SIM is recharged. Use / don't let SIM expire.

          Never used it myself. Just received SIMs. As were almost free, a good time to find out. Won't be recharging. Surplus data can be gifted / sold.

          Intending to set up 1 SIM for phone (6months using $20 referral) & another as Data SIM, gifting data to phone SIM to use over 6months.

          See discussion in comments in Belong Deals.

      • Averell on 19/05/2022 - 13:44

        Could you help share details about that 500GB for 6months thing?

      $4.20? What you smoking? In any case, both ShopBack and Cashrewards have 100% cashback on this deal, so take your pick. Tracking guaranteed, or your money back

      • sween64 on 19/05/2022 - 09:23

        It’s what OzB has listed in the drop down info box. Edit: Which is accurately scraped from their websites. Where did you get 100% from?

  • INFIDEL on 19/05/2022 - 01:17
    +2

    Signed up another SIM on existing account.

    Requesting to port existing (non Amaysim) number means SIM doesn't arrive preactivated.

    Otherwise SIM is activated when it is sent. But is reset to 28d after first use (within about 14d of being sent.)

    Porting is done when you choose to activate (within 30d is usual for cashback). I've previously decided not to Port & requested new number later.

    • Rodo on 19/05/2022 - 10:25

      Not entirely correct. You can buy a SIM with a new number and it will not be pre-activated if you select PayPal as the payment method.

      When you select PayPal as your payment method then Amaysim will ask at time of purchase to verify your ID. Do not verify your ID at this time. The SIM will then not be pre-activated when it arrives. Then when you are ready to use the SIM (generally no more than 30 days to get the deal), you can log onto your account, verify your ID, start the activation and then start using the SIM.

      • INFIDEL on 19/05/2022 - 10:39

        "…on existing account"
        ID check is then not required, so arrives preactivated, even with Paypal. So was correct.

        For new accounts - easiest as you suggest with Paypal.
        If provide CC - ID check is then not required, so arrives preactivated.

        Or can do as I suggested - provide any number to port to, then change to new number at time of (later) activation.

        Done it the different ways over years of free SIMs with Amaysim.

      See comment above!

      • HairyChickens on 19/05/2022 - 01:46

        So I assume I can activate the sim with a new number in a couple of months' time and have the 28 days reset as soon as I activate (in a couple month's time)?

        • INFIDEL on 19/05/2022 - 01:52

          You will miss out on any cashback.

              • DoctorCalculon on 19/05/2022 - 02:09

                @INFIDEL: I can't imagine cashback will eventually be confirmed even if it tracks as it looks like Amaysim is tightening up things including referrals (they now check for self referrals, and no longer provide a compact/sharable RAF link).

                Nonetheless, doesn't hurt to try.

    Terrible customer service, literally lazzy employees who cannot read email from same thread man, refusing to honor the 6 renewals that they themselves activated on different email. Because Cannot order sim or activate plan on one email which already has a number on this small 2 GB plan.

    They have left eBay CS way way behind.

  • Techefy on 19/05/2022 - 02:45

    It says automatic renewal and they have my card details. Seems like there is no option to remove card details? Do I need to contact customer care to remove the card?

              +2

              @Techefy: If you don't auto recharge, it automatically becomes PAYG. So nothing to change to.

              • DoctorCalculon on 21/05/2022 - 00:20

                @INFIDEL: It goes into a PAYG state. However, there is still a PAYG plan which you can select to make it official.

                Under PAYG, if you don't have enough credits, does Amaysim still let you make calls and send text (and send you a bill for those items at the end of the month)?

                • INFIDEL on 21/05/2022 - 00:22

                  @DoctorCalculon: Don't know. Never tried.

                • Webber000 on 28/05/2022 - 07:07

                  @DoctorCalculon: No. Because its pay as you go.
                  It's not a phone contract, and they don't credit check you, so they wouldn't let you use the service and send you a bill to maybe pay the next month.
                  It's pay as you go.

    Signed up but for some reason ID verification failed. There was an issue with using IOS so was told to use edge on the computer. Requested to cancel instead, then asked for my information to be removed from their system (to hopefully avoid spam). Was told that they can’t delete my information due to “data laws of Australia”, but that it will automatically be deleted at 2 years… a bit wary of this company’s need to keep my information.

    • INFIDEL on 19/05/2022 - 13:35

      Once Amaysim plan expires, becomes Pay As You Go. Still receive calls & SMS for a year. But can't make calls without credit.

      Can't port Amaysim number to Amaysim.
      Need to port out to another provider (eg Kogan $1 30d 30GB SIM) & back to keep number.

      • Fernley on 20/05/2022 - 19:22

          My experience over years (which could change) is 1yr or longer after the (28d) plan ends. Has been up to 2yrs in rare cases.

          Emails warnings are sent, that the number will soon expire. They hope you will add $10 to keep it as PAYG. Or take up offers of other plans.

            @INFIDEL: I've got two old Amaysim services which have long passed the "drop dead" date (and disappeared from my Amaysim login), but can still receive calls and text messages. One of them is now 571 days over and the other is 233. Out of curiosity more than anything else, I tried to port the latter to Kogan (one of the $1 deals) yesterday, but it failed. I called the Kogan porting team, who tried again, but it failed again. They've escalated it and said they'd get back to me within 24 hours. If it can't be ported so be it; I'll just run with the number on the Kogan starter pack.

            TLDR: Don't count on being able to port an expired Amaysim number.

            • INFIDEL on 27/05/2022 - 10:35
              +2

              @Colin2905: Good point - but I mainly use them as a contact number for Deals, so never ported.

              Have a bag of old SIMs, stored with number, email used, activation date etc. That info is also in old Amaysim emails - easily searched by number. Occasionally check if still active

              And use for cashback services. (SMS verification is needed to payout cashback.) Just remember the number in case it no longer receives calls. Can then change to another number on your cashback profile.
