    100 Minutes Calls

    *30-second increments

    So 50-100min calls are included, not 100

    • Or 200 one second calls as each call is rounded up to 30 seconds. I don't think it's even possible to get exactly 100 minutes of inclusive calls unless the one and only call of the month is exactly 100 minutes. A very rare case

  • Now that amaysim 1 year calls and sms @$60 is gone

    It still appears available.

    • I can't see that on their website?

      • It was only if you were already a customer (even if only pay as you go). It was there last week, but if you try to switch now it’s gone.

        • but if you try to switch now it’s gone.

          Still showing for me…

          Maybe it doesn't show for new accounts ?

        • It is avaible, but for some reason not on my data ones. Just weird

          Ah, once I login to my account try to switch plan, and it is now there. Will be a good plan for FIL, as he only calling frds, never touch any apps or internet.

          • @kaikor: Yes. Great plan if you don’t internet

    Internet Access is suspended After reaching 500MBs data downloads until the end of the calendar month.
    Optional Data Pack Add ONs
    1GB $7.00
    2GB $10.00
    5GB $20.00

    FYI, 500MBs is not even enough for apps updates, you will be stuck without Internet on the 2nd date of each month, or pay up.

    • Some people have access to wifi and maybe also VOWIFI.

      This is perfect for grandparents who just need data for simple things (email, weather, WhatsApp etc) and are connected to wifi 99% of the time.

      Also can be good as a spare number to deal with all the Gumtree gronks.

      Obviously if you're going to be streaming YouTube on the train you need more data.

        Or an Aldi $5 365 day sim for the gronks

        Fixed that for you.

      Great for my watch. Hope they have esim

      • I’m highly doubt it

  • Do the 100 minutes include incoming calls?

    • Hm interesting question. Almost all plans include unlimited calls now, but I also can't recall any Australian plan ever charging for incoming calls, even before the days of unlimited calls.

      The first time I noticed it in Singapore and Hong Kong, I was absolutely bewildered. It was so odd to me that I couldn't comprehend why "Free Incoming Calls" was being called out as a selling point…

      • I think the US 'invented' charges for incoming calls - mobile numbers are the same area code as landlines, so someone had to cover the cost of routing the number to a mobile.

  • Now that amaysim 1 year calls and sms @$60 is gone

    It's still there but you need to be an existing customer first to switch to it.

    This is slightly different use case I feel, you get less calls and SMS but gain 500MB data (which isn't a lot but you get nothing on Amaysim).

    • I can confirm it’s now gone. I am an existing customer and when I try to change there is not 60gb anymore.

      • Still definitely there for me. It's a prepaid account that's been active since like 2019, not sure if there was a cut off.

        • Oh yes. That’s weird it’s available on one but not on the other. I’ll remove it fro description

  • Is it possible to transfer my existing number to this plan?

    • Yes of course. Member since 2016, have you never ported your number?
