      Lets do some quick math. This plan is effective $110/year (after 5k FB point rebate), that's $9.16 per month. If you were to spend just $91.60 in a single Coles shop, you effectively are getting the phone plan for free. Spend $150 in a shop, and they are losing money. Coles and Amaysim are the only two providers I know of that offer international calls on a similarly priced plan ($120-150 per year).

      • SydBoy on 17/01/2024 - 06:46

        how would one get free phone from this plan?

  • TheMills on 15/01/2024 - 09:11

    Optus's 4G was really slow and disappointing for me.
    Switched to Vodafone this year, its got 5G and I can feel the difference.

  • slackme on 15/01/2024 - 09:17

    I believe they want to clear the old stock. The plan supposes to be stopped for new customers weeks ago. It definitely a good deal and probably the last chance to get to the plan. The 60GB plan is no longer exists.

    • browser on 15/01/2024 - 10:19

      It literally says that on their website.

    Ive used Optus years ago, no issues.

    I recently switched to Coles mobile, i have found the reception mediocre at best. At work (Level 1 in city fringe) the recpetion is intermittent.

  • thegreatermamba on 15/01/2024 - 09:32

    Which of these SIMs (Woolies, Coles, etc) have full Telstra Network - I think Belong - Any other one?

    • 11hobos11 on 15/01/2024 - 09:46

      Boost

    • RTY on 15/01/2024 - 09:50

      Boost, and you can get it for free sometimes on cashrewards

  • NoFrillz on 15/01/2024 - 09:32

    The current Amaysim 1 year starter pack deal at Woolworth is better. Same Optus, $125 but also get 2000 point ($10) back, so makes this $115.

    • browser on 15/01/2024 - 10:17
      +2

      Did you not see the Coles deal has 5,000 Flybuys points? Equivalent to $25.

      • NoFrillz on 15/01/2024 - 12:05

        Oh, I didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing it out.

        I guess the difference is $100 vs $115, and Woolworth/Amaysim get 140 GB data vs Coles 120 GB data.

    Telstra & Boost offer FREE International Roaming unlimited incoming / outgoing calls & SMS to Australia (not other countries) via WiFi Calling when connected to WiFi

    Does Optus / Coles offer such a free service

    • Lange on 15/01/2024 - 10:13

      Would like to know as well

    • mick1 on 15/01/2024 - 15:29

      No. Optus wifi calling is only in Aus.

      • utsc on 15/01/2024 - 16:09

        If you're a person who travels overseas even once a year then Telstra MVNO might be a better option.

      • jmc787 on 19/01/2024 - 22:22

        I read that if you use a phone/router to make a VPN connection to Australia and then wifi hotspot to the coles phone it will work as the wifi calling registration will appear to be coming from an australian IP - i have not tested this

    • tofusana on 16/01/2024 - 10:48

      Do you know which 12 month Telstra and Boost plans offer this free international roaming service? I had no idea such a service existed with free international roaming calls with wifi. Does that mean you only need to get pocket Wifi or a overseas mobile sim with data to receive and make free calls/sms to australia?

      • utsc on 16/01/2024 - 21:01
        +2

        I have the Boost $230 12 months plan and it has worked in all the countries that I traveled including US, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia and India.
        It works flawlessly on iPhones including the older XR but some have had issues with Android phone.

        Having a local data mobile sim in the same phone will NOT not work as you need to be connected to Wifi

  • browser on 15/01/2024 - 10:16

    $150/120GB was $119 previously without 5,000 Flybuys points, so this is even better value, works out to $100/120GB/365.

    Do team members usually get $20 off? Last year a friend bought for me, he got further $20 off from $119.

    Can Catch port to Coles directly?

  • mangobango on 15/01/2024 - 10:51

    Damn should've waited, already bought a $119 sim from Catch.

    Good deal.

  • lesleigh on 15/01/2024 - 11:03

    May I ask the old person question? I will be traveling to the UK later this year, Would I be able to make calls while there using this, saving the hassle of trying to put a sim card in on arrival

    • mick1 on 15/01/2024 - 15:43
      +2

      Yes - if you buy an "add on" roaming extras pack ($25 when I last used it) - lasts 30 days. That's good for about 25 minutes of calls (they charge $1 per minute in most places). 12 month pre paid Amaysim might be better for you. Their $20 add on roaming pack lasts 12 months and gives you 100 min of calls and 100 sms (no data). Amaysim 12 months pre-paid was $125 in Woolies a week or so ago - but not sure if that deal is still available.

  • nmcc08 on 15/01/2024 - 11:04

    The Kogan 120gb deal is back to $100 if anyone is interested.

    • browser on 15/01/2024 - 11:58

      Possibly less reliable, also 0 country international calls included, so for the same price, Coles is likely a better deal.

  • cycleri3 on 15/01/2024 - 11:09

    When do you have to activate this by?

    • browser on 15/01/2024 - 12:02

      30 days from Purchase.

      After that may still work (since this not a bonus data deal) but at your own risk.

      Best to confirm with Live Chat and take screenshots or email transcript.

      I intend to buy some to be activated in mid to late March (within 75 days).

    • dtingy on 15/01/2024 - 13:54
      +1

      just checked with Chat, as long as you activate within 24 months. i have saved the screenshot to dispute later if it is not.

      • browser on 15/01/2024 - 14:49

        That's what they told me last year, they didn't quote 24 months, but mentioned it's good for many months after 30 days.

        Somehow I'm the destinated person responsible to "recharge" for family members and relatives, so every January I have to start looking for deals. :|

        • dtingy on 15/01/2024 - 14:56

          the Chat mentioned 24 months. i have less than you, only the destinated person responsible to "recharge" or "port-out or port-in) for my household.

    Is the boost party over now? If so, I will consider these yearly plan.

    • spy on 16/01/2024 - 06:07

      Yes and Boost is ridiculously expensive now.

      • try2bhelpful on 17/01/2024 - 08:12

        If you want the extra data not so much. However, you need to buy when it is discounted.

        • roonie on 17/01/2024 - 12:24

          That might suit new boost customers. My recharge is going from $170 to $230. I'll.be churning (especially as I've used v. little data)

          • try2bhelpful on 17/01/2024 - 15:01

            @roonie: Others have said if you chat to customer service they might give you the discount for the recharge. Might be worth a try anyway. Part of the reason we told Colesmobile to rack off is they were removing our old service and wouldn’t give us a discount on the new.

            • roonie on 22/01/2024 - 13:59

              @try2bhelpful: They offered me $200. I said I’ll pass. I got the impression that they understood that their current strategy (of not offering recharge discounts) was flawed

  • Miaculpa on 15/01/2024 - 12:10

    Guys, what happens if you buy this pack and dont activate by the date (or 30 days from purchase)? - Apologies in advance if questions seems Noob

  • rmsprs on 15/01/2024 - 12:31

    great deal but I wish this had more data allowance or a bigger pack. 10GB per month is not enough in this day and age for most.

  • the1doood on 15/01/2024 - 15:07

    I got 150GB upon activation without doing anything special.

  • tjioer on 15/01/2024 - 15:22

    For people looking to recharge, I asked Chat if there is an expiry date. They said there shouldn't be any, but check the voucher.

    So I will ask the counter first and if there is any expiry date, can I get a refund if the date is before my current expiry date.

  • Kiran118 on 15/01/2024 - 16:49

    Does Cole’s mobile support wifi calling ?

  • Captain Hindsight on 15/01/2024 - 20:34

    Is this the same plan that was $119 a few months ago or does it have extra features?

  • chintu123 on 15/01/2024 - 21:16

    Great plan and good coverage in Perth but pixel 7 doesn't support volte.
    Vowifi works but won't allow free overseas roaming like how Boost does.

  • WeePaulie on 15/01/2024 - 23:07

    A word of caution..I was with Coles 12 months (for the international minutes really) and I would constantly have the mobile connection drop. If I was listening to Spotify or a podcast it would often drop and the connection would only come back on if I engaged flight mode on and then off. Incredibly frustrating when driving.

    I'm with Amaysim now, so still Optus and no issue.

    There areotsnof reviews pine with people saying the same thing about Coles. I'd never go with them again.

    • spy on 16/01/2024 - 06:06

      Amaysim slightly better than Floptus. Also owned by Floptus

  • Casper7 on 17/01/2024 - 09:29

    There is Shopback Westpac upsized cashback of 15% capped to $20(today only 17/Jan). Gift card purchases are excluded. Does anyone know coles prepaid is eligible for cashback?

    Seeing this is an outgoing plan, while stock last, went to get some this morning.

    Because it is classified as gift card, there is a limit of 5, so split into 2 transactions.

  • browser on 17/01/2024 - 13:30

    Haven't done this for a long time, to port out then back in, would a $2 SIM kit work (for example Vodafone)? Can it receive verification code via SMS without any top up?

    • WatchNerd on 17/01/2024 - 13:32

      Not sure about Voda but Aldi starter pack is $5 & comes with $5 credit. It uses the Telstra network.

        • WatchNerd on 17/01/2024 - 13:59

          Bargain if it works, worth a try for $1.

            +1

            @WatchNerd: The starter packs from Bing Lee are really old, they are from early 2022, guess that's why they are clearing them out. Was initially concerned they might have been expired. The back of the pack says expires 365 days after purchase if not activated, but I don't remember they did anything during checkout, so Vodafone wouldn't know when was it purchased, therefore these packs should be good for a long time.

            Anyway, there's a major blocker, Vodafone activation requires minimum $10 recharge. Have searched for workarounds, there are none. So don't try the port-out-port-in trick using Vodafone. Bought a few of those packs, what a waste even at a dollar each.

      Got the bonus points somewhere between 24 and 48 hours. Never had so many points setting in the account before. :)

      If anything, seems to have missed out on a 10% discount on purchases over $70, didn't know and wasn't activated until after the purchases.

      Maybe prepaid phone plans (gift cards) don't count.

  • ITveteran on 20/01/2024 - 13:06

    Last year was on Coles mobile. Had never been able to send SMS to China to invite contacts on Facetime. Logged multiple calls and talked to the team for many hours, no fix. They just let it be without any follow-up.

    Positive thing was international calls worked.

    My exist $120/60GB plan is expiring soon. I have chatted with Coles mobile, he said I should still be able to get the $120 recharge voucher from Coles. Has anyone able to get it with 20% off as on their ads only has $20, $150 & $200.

    • audreamer on 25/01/2024 - 12:14

      I got my $150 recharge voucher for $120 from Coles last week. The $120 recharge voucher and the $150 recharge voucher were both $120, so no brainer to buy the $150 recharge voucher.

  • min2 on 23/01/2024 - 18:52

    Can this stack with the $50 per week for 4 weeks spend at Coles that earns 10,000 Flybuys points?

    • bdl on 24/01/2024 - 18:35
      +1

      I'd say yes since mobile stuff not excluded in $50/week promo's terms:

      "$50 or more must be spent in one transaction, after all savings, discounts and vouchers each week for 4 consecutive weeks. $50 transaction excludes purchases of all gift cards, iTunes cards, charity items/donations, tobacco and tobacco-related products, Coles Best Buys online exclusive products and online delivery fees".

      You can test it for us and report back :D

              @dockersrule: No, got the points on 24th Jan. I activated my simcard last night and ported successfully today at 10am. I am suprised Coles mobile porting hours aren't active on Sundays but I ported so quick over from Boost today.
