    I read the FAQ regarding using the starter kits for recharging being frowned upon. Are people just porting out then back in to get around this?

    • mitt on 20/12/2023 - 10:56

      Yes. Or just activating on a new number for the data.

      • Tightaas on 20/12/2023 - 22:08

        Nowhere on this post do I see having to activate SIM within 30 days from purchase. Can someone please confirm this is the case with this deal? 👍

        • wavesgreen on 20/12/2023 - 22:33

          See FAQ linked in deal post.

          • Tightaas on 20/12/2023 - 22:37

            @wavesgreen: Thanks wavesgreen, I read that. It only takes about cash rewards needing to activate within 30 days however nothing regarding shopback offer, unless I missed it 🤔

  • StephenCurry on 20/12/2023 - 09:53

    What happened to the activation recently? Always get something is wrong and have to go for manual chat which could take 15 min… So painful.

    • softkun123 on 20/12/2023 - 09:57

      same here … had to call them to activate the sim

    • wavesgreen on 20/12/2023 - 10:01

      Anecdotal reports that Boost are now blocking online activations for any TelstraID that has multiple numbers, have to activate thru chat.

    • ilubbargains on 20/12/2023 - 10:52

      been activating via chat using a saved script. copy & paste ftw. But yes, a bit painful

      • StephenCurry on 20/12/2023 - 11:10

        Yea they have to check this and that… And they reply slowly :( But don't seem to find a better way tho

    • sween64 on 20/12/2023 - 12:12

      And online chat with only activate 3 at a time…

      • cooni on 20/12/2023 - 17:05

        4

        • sween64 on 21/12/2023 - 13:06

          The CSR I had the other week said 3. I guess it depends who you get. They also said 3 per day but I jumped on a couple of hours later and had a further 2 activated.

          • CodeXD on 21/12/2023 - 13:07

            @sween64: So that's 5 in one day. How many do you currently have active on your account?

            • sween64 on 21/12/2023 - 13:18
              +1

              @CodeXD: About 30. I need to remove some but the Boost iOS app hasn’t been showing me all my services for the last few days.

              What was strange was that once when activating 3 SIMs at once the CSR asked me why I had some many SIMs. I said cos data. I asked the CSR how many services I had active and they could only see 6 <shrug>

    • OzTortoise on 20/12/2023 - 15:38

      Boost SIM card activation does not work with Firefox anymore for some reasons but it works fine with Google Chrome or MS Edge.

      • Borg on 21/12/2023 - 16:35

        I use Firefox for all mine and never an issue.

    • mkowarkski on 20/12/2023 - 19:25

      I got the error in Chrome. Used Edge and it worked!

    Done. Thanks OP. To think that I was upset missing out on the Cashrewards offer yesterday. Ha

  • Jeeyang on 20/12/2023 - 10:12

    I purchased early morning with only $22 cashback. Still not tracked. Can I purchase again?

    • MakeBread on 20/12/2023 - 12:33

      Contact boost and cancel your order then buy again

  • Scozza on 20/12/2023 - 10:28

    Can anyone confirm if these deals are for new customers only? I noticed the FAQ mentions the new customer clause does not affect the cashback, but that was for Cashrewards. Wanted to see if this is also the case for ShopBack?

    • Borg on 20/12/2023 - 11:13
      +1

      New Customer = Cannot be used to Top-up existing Boost Mobile plan.
      In short, if you are an existing Boost Customer, you can still buy these as long as:
      a) Is used for a new number OR
      b) if you wanted to keep existing number, you would have to Port out first and and then back in.

  • RHSteven on 20/12/2023 - 10:30
    +3

    Have not much faith in ShopBack due to recent untracked and declined transactions with the BWS 25% CB, going to stick with Cashrewards for this one.

    • WhyAmICommenting on 20/12/2023 - 10:51

      They finally payed up the Johnny Walker one manually

      • RHSteven on 20/12/2023 - 10:52
        +1

        I got no luck.

        "
        Unfortunately, ShopBack has been deemed ineligible for commission on this order as the order was attributed to another marketing channel and not through ShopBack, which means we won't have any Cashback to pass on.

        When a merchant deems ShopBack ineligible for commission, we don’t receive any monetary payments which we would typically pass on as Cashback to our customers.

        We understand that this isn't a desirable outcome, and we apologise for that.
        "

        • WhyAmICommenting on 20/12/2023 - 10:53

          Yeah I got that once with the iconic - I was pissed. Should have returned it

          I didn’t even contact them about Johnny it just turned up a few days ago. Bummer for you :(

        • Monorail on 20/12/2023 - 15:54

          Got this with PetStock. Such a scam.

        • Pub Envelope on 20/12/2023 - 18:05

          Yep same thing. ShopBack never again.

  • King Tightarse on 20/12/2023 - 10:32

    Thanks OP.
    Just a note: as far as I can tell Boost are strictly enforcing SINGLE Boost/Telsta IDs. This is reasonably dodgy because they are creating their own single ID system on everybody, which would seem beyond their station as a phone company but that is what they are doing.
    Like most people, I used to use a random disposable email and old sim number and when SIM churning. That doesn't work here.
    So long as you sign in to your Boost ID and every detail matches, you should be able to order every time.
    Works for me.

    • StarPlatinum on 20/12/2023 - 10:35

      Just dont input a number a when activating a sim Ive never done it and still managed to activate 10+ sims

    • ronnknee on 20/12/2023 - 15:35
      +1

      So long as you sign in to your Boost ID and every detail matches, you should be able to order every time.

      Unfortuantely can confirm that this not necessarily the case. Used my details exactly as they are on my Boost/Telstra ID profile, and was unable to make an order.

      • King Tightarse on 20/12/2023 - 15:54

        I think that happened to me once too, but I was able to eventually resolve it by using a different credit card.
        Their system has a ridiculously sensitive 'hair trigger' for any data conflicts

        • ronnknee on 20/12/2023 - 16:21
          +2

          Yea also tried with a different credit cards, still no luck :(

    • bcYield on 20/12/2023 - 23:49

      Isn't it that people put exactly same details and get "something went wrong" initially?

  • tunzafun001 on 20/12/2023 - 10:35

    Best use of a new number (that currently works)?

        Boost does not. boxall mean they moved their main number to esim so there is an available physical sim slot for boost

        • boxall on 20/12/2023 - 13:06

      It should

    • roughana on 20/12/2023 - 16:46

      How does this work?

      • freoleo on 20/12/2023 - 21:41

        Just checked out as a guest, I'll need an account when activating the sim tho

  • USER DC on 20/12/2023 - 12:27

    SB been very bad lately and boost ofcouse probably gonna throw something went wrong error, So not even worth trying honestly for me

  • R9daniel on 20/12/2023 - 12:29

    Howmany days do we need to port out and back in to keep the number? A couple days?

    • Killater2002 on 20/12/2023 - 14:31

      For me i legit don't wait, I just port it out then like as soon as i get the activation email I port it back in

    Didn’t track. :-(

  • boxall on 31/12/2023 - 08:50

    No sign of my sim. How long does it take?

    • Borg on 31/12/2023 - 12:03

      Couple of days usually (I am in Sydney), a week at most, although we are in Holidays season! That's MIA at a guess so best call Boost and ask them as they will have a "Tracking No" for all orders.

    • CodeXD on 31/12/2023 - 12:07

      I bought on 20th, received 27th I think

    • boxall on 05/01/2024 - 08:02

      All sorted and activated.

  • freoleo on 05/01/2024 - 01:23

    Tried all 3 of my emails, getting nothing

    "It looks like you've already provided your contact details some time back, but the email you entered doesn't match with the one in our records. Try using a different email address or message us for help."

    Guess I'll message them but they aren't available right now

    • wavesgreen on 05/01/2024 - 06:01

      Had that one time recently when I tried some 'new' e-mail addresses that I had used in the past but were not the one linked to my Boost/TelstraID. Only my Boost/TelstraID one worked.

      • freoleo on 05/01/2024 - 10:59

        Weird, I did try that too

        Pretty sure 2 of the accounts had never had boost accounts, dead certain atleast one of them didn't

        Will try again with a freshy tonight
