Better Value for Money Mobile Data Deal than Belong with Data $23/50gig/Month?

I am on Belong $19/mth for 5gig and can purchase 100gb for $7/ea with data bank. My monthly data usage changes but usually falls around 30-50gig. With this plan I use about $23/mth for 50gig. Can you recommend a better value for money mobile data plan?

I use mobile data for home internet.

      $7.99 on Ebay. Everyday. But it's cheaper on ozbargain classifieds if you're quick.

        Cheaper if purchasing larger amounts of data.

        $5.70/100gb if purchased with 700gb blocks

    Currently it is Boost with the free sim cards from Cashrewards.

    For the last 4 months I was just activating 2x-3x simcards a month for the 3x45GB. FREE
    (I got my money back, but takes 3 months.)

    Otherwise I am with Belong too.

    You can reduce the cost a little bit, just not sure about convenience.

    For example, I bought some Belong $45 sim cards from JB when it was on sale for $20. Then you activate it on the $19 plan so next month is free, as you still have $26 left on the account. you pay ~$10 per month. You need to transfer the unused GB to your new sim card. Also, the date of when you activate the new one is very important and can be tricky (post-paid /prepaid issue).

    I also bought 2x700GB for 2x$35=$70 which covers the whole year for me (need ~120GB monthly).

    You should just buy 1x Boost sim card for free with Cashrewards every month. Once this promo ends switch back to Belong and buy 3-4 months worth of data in one go to minimise the $/GB.

    • How do you top the plan up? Just get onto your Belong account online and add it?

      I’m looking at their $15/20GB data plan to do this. Only thing is the data doesn’t roll over on these plans.

      I see you said activate on the “$19” plan. I assume that’s a mobile plan no longer available? Smallest now seems to be $29.

        You have to activate the $29 per Month, 25GB unlimited talk/text plan. Once you've activated it, you can downgrade to the $19 per month 5GB unlimited talk/text plan. Remember to use a referral code when you activate so that you and the referrer get an extra $20 credit.

        You can buy additional data from Belong at 5 GB for $10. Or you can get a friend to gift you the data. Or more likely an Ozbargain/eBay 'friend' to 'gift' you the data for around 7c per GB.

        • Thanks a lot Dave.

          I’m going to stick it in a 4G modem and paying $4 more to be able to roll over data would be great. Cheers.

  • How are these ebay guys doing this?

  • What speeds are you getting on Belong? I see on the website it says max 150mbps
