Similar to this deal, Amaysim is now offering a targeted $200 off coupon for their phone range. The G54 is now more expensive but still a good deal at ~~$109 $39 delivered ($79 $9 device cost + $30 plan).~~ Sold Out

I couldn't live with paying more for the G54 than those who bought in July so I decided to pay more money to buy the Samsung A35 for $129 instead lol. OzBargain logic! Expired

Some other deals that might work for others:

Coupon expires 31 August.
Coupon expiry extended to 30 September.
Coupon expiry extended to 31 October.
Coupon expiry extended to 30 November.

Mod Note 16 Oct: Existing Customers can now buy the phone, without renewing.

          @easternculture appreciate the screenshots, that makes a lot of sense.

          @rbimdxe @Synapse29 - It's called leverage. The reason that easternculture and jaduquim can get so many codes is because they have been long time customers with many active services with Amaysim. I believe jaduquim said he had 7 and easternculture has over 10? You can see in the screenshot he escalated to supervisor, they looked up his many accounts and so offered a code.

  • Love a bargain on 04/10/2024 - 06:44

    Hey guys, got a related question.

    I'm an existing customer on an 365 days plan and already have a code. Decided to get the phone with a $10 plan (don't wanna mess with my existing one). Bought a $25 sim from Coles for $10, activated it on a $10 plan up to the point of selecting a number (the system says I have to click another button to activate the sim to actually use it & I can only see this number in the Web but not on the app - ie it doesn't look like the clock has started ticking yet), ordered a phone with the code I already had with another $10 recharge and the phone has now been delivered.

    So my question is: does anyone know how long I've got to actually activate that SIM? As in can I keep it for, say, several months until I have a need for it?

      As of now, amaysim is offering only G54 and G62 in Motorola devices, but if you're looking for something else, check other brands such as Samsung, Oppo, etc.

    Looks like Amaysim have started to catch on with how many phones are being purchased on a per customer basis with this new limit on each product page:

    "Max 3 devices per customer, per mth."

    "Can I purchase more than 1 phone?

  • Hopscotchy on 13/10/2024 - 15:14

    For those reading the comments here and feel (like me) that asking Amaysim for a $200 code is not going to work - it worked for me!

    I got the free data email this week, but was never offered $200 off. I started a chat with an Amaysim rep and they gave me a code. I enabled auto renew on my account before I chatted to them, but I don't know if this helped. Now have a Motorola G54 coming to me for $9. Good luck!

  • neoleo on 15/10/2024 - 17:10

    Tips on how to get the $200 code:
    Put Amaysim sim card in an old phone that will be impacted. I didn't recharge my Amaysim numbers and only put them in old phones (dual sim).

    I got email that says:
    🚨"your name", act now. Your phone has or soon will be impacted by the 3G switch off🚨"

    I noticed in the email:
    "You can get a new phone at no cost (with an eligible SIM plan and your personalised promo code)."

    Then I chatted Amaysim agent/customer service:
    "I got an email from Amaysim that I can get a new phone with personalised promo code."

    The agent checked my account and confirmed that my phone will be impacted. She gave me 3 codes as I have 3 Amaysim numbers that I put in my old phones.

    Very cheap to buy phones from Amaysim. I bought 1 as a backup and I think having esim will be useful when I am overseas with free data from esim deals in Ozb. I'll give the other code to my friend. Winning ✌️ Cheers :D

      Same, email said

      You can get a new phone at no cost (with your existing plan) using your personalised promo code (sent via email previously), by 31/10/24. If you have not received a promo code simply contact us on 1300 222 500 for more details.

      I used online chat, asked how to get code(20min wait?), got a $200 code and bought the G54 for $9 🙂

    A35 or the G54 which will last longer in the long run? Is the screen better on the A35 and is the screen slightly bigger? I know the A35 will probably be better but i just want to get other peoples thoughts

    • TomGum on 16/10/2024 - 20:46

      A35 has 6GB ram and G54 has 8GB.

    • Saiya on 16/10/2024 - 23:24

      I have both, purchased through the Amaysim vouchers, I prefer the A35. The screen is a lot more better picture quality and also the feel of the phone is solid. G54 is quite plasticky, lighter and does feel cheap. Both devices run Hayday without any problems.

    • neoleo on 16/10/2024 - 23:33
      +6

      Yes, A35 is 6.6" with Gorrila Glass Victus+ while G54 is 6.5"

      A35 will receive 4 major android upgrades according to GSMARENA, so yes it will last longer from OS upgrade perspective.

      In theory A35 has better screen with Super AMOLED but:
      "The display backlight flickers at 240 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) .

      The frequency of 240 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below."

      https://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-Galaxy-A35-5G-review-A…

      For me, IPS LCD on G54 is still good enough.

      The camera on A35 is better with 4k video support, while G54 can only do 1080p. For me, it doesn't matter except if I watch videos recorded on big 4K TV like 50" or above. I'll put gcam mod app for better photo quality in any android phone anyway.

      The memory card slot is hybrid? in A35 compared with G54 dedicated memory card slot. If you only use 1 phone number, that's fine. If dual sim cards, G54 is great with esim and dedicated memory card slot from what I read. A35 doesn't have esim. Having esim is great for overseas travel with free data from many Ozb deals.

      No audio jack 3.5mm on A35, while G54 has audio jack 3.5mm. Handy if you use wired earphone/headphone (or buy additional USB C adapter for wired earphone/headphone to be used with A35). Hi-res music is best with wired, not wireless earbuds.

        A35: sometime UI-stutters & lag ?

        This one is easy to fix. Install and use systemwide adblocker app like "Adguard" app (paid, include firewall) or "NextDNS" (free for personal use).

        Also install and use "Hibernator" app. Not all apps need to run all day in the background like shopping apps, bank apps, food delivery apps, etc. Change this in the phone Settings too (allow or not background activity).

        Disable background data for apps that don't need to run data all day, only when using the apps in the phone Settings (and Adguard app has this feature too).

      You need an old phone that won't be able to call 000 after 3G shutdown or no VoLTE. Put the sim card into that old phone for a while. You'll get sms and email about 3G shutdown.

      • Frantic on 18/10/2024 - 19:37

          If you put Amaysim in the old phone that they think is not VoLTE capable and won't be able to call 000 after 3G shutdown, you may get email with subject:
          🚨"your name", act now. Your phone has or soon will be impacted by the 3G switch off🚨"

          After that, chat Amaysim agent/customer service that you got email from Amaysim and ask the $200 voucher to buy a new phone from Amaysim.

          It doesn't matter. I didn't recharge my 3 numbers, only deliberately put them into old phones. Do this, then you'll receive sms and email about 3G shutdown.

            @neoleo: Tried on the chat and they said I'm not eligible :(
            They give it to only old customers :(

    Managed to get a code with chat. I'm intending to buy a new phone for use to port in a new number.
    I already have a $30 amaysim starter pack bought from Coles for $10 which I would like to use together with the code to buy a new phone. Is that possible? Or is there a way to get around having to buy another $30 plan with the phone purchase? Lots of great ideas here but I'm not sure how to proceed. Comments appreciated.

      make an account with the $30 pack you alrdy got, then buy the phone and choose exisitng customer. login and you only have to pay for the phone, not another $30 sim

        Sounds good. Does the new account have to be the owner of the code?

      What did you say on the chat?
      They responded that I'm not eligible as I'm new customer :(
