      Nah, means once you activate it you get 12 months to use it. If you want the additional data you must activate it before the 26th of September.

          The one week to activate relates back to the data inclusion. On the 27th of September, our inclusions for all plans will change, however, data inclusions for this price point have remained fairly consistent over the past 6 months.

              On that note, we are working really hard to bring roaming back to our customers - it's a huge priority for us!

      • lgacb08 on 19/09/2022 - 17:10

        Better get the $4sim with a month worth of service from lebara or similar if you can put up with non-Telstra coverage. You might run into issues with no credit sim and can't port out when a confirmation text is required.

        • sedi on 19/09/2022 - 19:13

          I buy this sim from kogan and use it to just port in and out. Been doing this for a while now. Works flawlessly 😊

          • Pub Envelope on 19/09/2022 - 21:23

            @sedi: So do you have to spend the $2.9 every time you want to port in and back again? Or can you buy the sim once and keep it? My thoughts are for the monthly free boost sims, I need something to port in and back again with minimal cost

            • sedi on 19/09/2022 - 21:37
              +1

              @Pub Envelope: As far as I know, once the sim is used for porting, you can't reuse it.
              If you want to maximise the utility of these sims, you can buy $2.90 Kogan sim, use it for 28 days, port to Boost on 28th day, and use Boost for 28 days, and port back to Kogan on 28th day for $2.90 and use it.
              Good thing about Kogan sim is that if you port out before 30th day, they don't charge you for the next month. But I would port on 28th day, just to be on the safe side.

              • neonlight on 19/09/2022 - 21:52

                @sedi: That's a great idea I will try that

                • sedi on 19/09/2022 - 21:55

                  @neonlight: Make sure to COMPLETE the port process before 30th day. If it gets stuck in the middle, you will get charged for the next month. Enjoy 😜

      • neonlight on 19/09/2022 - 19:46

        How long do need you need to be on Kogan before porting back to Boost?

        • sedi on 19/09/2022 - 20:28

          No time limit. I switch back to boost straight away. And Boost happily accepts me as a New Customer 😜

    • neonlight on 19/09/2022 - 19:47

      Didn’t hurt me at least I know I won’t get hacked.

      eSIM is extremely vulnerable

      • tomsco on 19/09/2022 - 20:20

        I’m referring to the use of “currently” and “yet”.

  • elchew on 19/09/2022 - 13:32

    What it does it mean by 130GB from 2nd recharge?

    • Bruceflix on 19/09/2022 - 13:35

      It means, after 12 months when you need to recharge, it costs more for less.

    • Associatedboostmobileau @ Boost Mobile on 19/09/2022 - 13:37
      +5

      It means that your data allocation for this 12 month SIM is 140GB, and after 12-months when you are due for another recharge, the allocation for this specific product will be 130GB (however, you can choose to recharge at any price point after 12 months - you are not locked into this plan).

      • Hellcrusher3304 on 19/09/2022 - 15:32

        So this starter kit can be used as recharge?

        • Associatedboostmobileau @ Boost Mobile on 19/09/2022 - 17:21
          +1

          You'll use the starter kit for the first year (140GB) and the data inclusion of 130GB applies to the recharge from year 2.

          • Angliss on 20/09/2022 - 20:06

            @boostmobileau: Do I have wait until the 140GB first year ends in December to apply the recharge, or can I load up the second year 130GB in advance now?

      • nightelves on 19/09/2022 - 13:46

        If you don't activate before 27th September how much data will you have?

        • Associatedboostmobileau @ Boost Mobile on 19/09/2022 - 13:47

          The one week to activate relates back to the data inclusion. On the 27th of September, our inclusions for all plans will change, however, data inclusions for this price point have remained fairly consistent over the past 6 months so there won't be any surprises.

        • SumTingRon on 20/09/2022 - 14:11

          I called boost and they said if you activate after 27/9, your data inclusion is 140gb. I.e. you only lost the bonus recharge 130gb bit.

          The only thing you need to aware is the sim expiry date as some of them may expire within a week. The sims will b sending out from the warehouse so they dont know which sim you will be getting.

          • Techefy on 20/09/2022 - 15:46

            @SumTingRon: What does your sentence “if you activate after 27/9, your data inclusion is 140gb. I.e. you only lost the bonus recharge 130gb bit“ actually mean? Did you mean after 27/9 you get only 130 GB instead of 140GB, which is only a 10GB loss?

      • cheekymonkey97 on 19/09/2022 - 14:10

          Wi-Fi Calling allows you to make and receive phone calls over a Wi-Fi connection rather than through your provider's network. You can turn on the WiFi calling feature in your phone's settings.

        No, it does not work all the time and it's misleading for you to claim as a representative of Boost that it does. My wife is currently in the US for work for 3 months. Wifi calling and receiving messages for banking OTPs etc worked for the first week or so, and has never worked since.

      It's a hit-and-miss mostly. Didn't work for me. But worked for many others. Whirlpool has many threads of similar experiences. If you want 100% certainty, go with Telstra. And stupid chat is hopeless. Keep pointing to 'no roaming'.

      Data point for the group:

      Back from USA.
      Over wifi sms and calls worked a treat.
      For sms we found we needed to send an sms from the phone which then seemed to trigger the receiving of a batched up sms at once.
      Calls came through and could be made faultlessly (better than a T-Mobile local US sim when calling back to Oz).
