• SIM must be activated within 30 days of purchase, and must not be deactivated until your cashback is payable. If the SIM is deactivated prior, Boost may decline cashback.
• Multiple SIM purchases need to be made as separate transactions. If there is more than one SIM in an order, it will result in an untracked purchase and the purchase will be ineligible for cashback.
• Cashback is ineligible on eSIMs, recharges, phones, bundles, accessories.
• Cashback is ineligible on use of any codes not approved and posted by TopCashback.
• Cashback is ineligible on purchase of gift cards and/or use of gift cards for payment.
• Cashback is ineligible on purchases made via the retailer's mobile app.
• Most retailers calculate cashback based on purchase amount excluding GST, other taxes, and delivery fees. Your cashback may report lower than expected due to this.

  SIM must be activated within 30 days of purchase, and must not be deactivated until your cashback is payable. If the SIM is deactivated prior, Boost may decline cashback.

  Does not de-activating mean you need to pay for multiple 28-days to keep it active, until you receive the cashback? Because in that case it's not a $12 sim, but $12 x months you need to keep it active (meaning not a free sim anymore).
  Or does it mean 'not porting out the number' before you receive cashback?

    @tightarse are you able to comment on this? Will we have to keep it active more than 28 days negating the "100% cashback"? Does active require a recharge?Thanks :)

      No need for both questions
      Up until last year a sim bought considered activated ( for cash back purposes)

  Same deal on CR with no bs "must not be deactivated until your cashback is payable. If the SIM is deactivated prior, Boost may decline cashback"

    It’s far from BS and same applies to all cashback partners. If they’ve not updated their terms that’s on them. I have the emails from Boost/Telstra and I mentioned it here back in June. And remember, Boost/Telstra makes the call on approvals & declines, not their partners. Have a lovely day :)

      they will be adding a further requirement around SIMs remaining active or recharged, but we’re waiting on exact conditions

      Did you get the exact conditions? Like you said is it just not ported out or needs to be recharged

      …and same applies to all cashback partners. If they’ve not updated their terms that’s on them.

      I interprete it as it's most likely that ALL (TCB, SB, CR) got the same message but SOME decided NOT to list this criteria….wonder why ?

      Thanks tightarse@TopCashbackAU for a candid & honest response.
      Also, pls consider adding this criteria in your TCB-Boost link-> https://www.topcashback.com.au/boost-mobile/

      For the NOVICE, ALL money-back companies get a commission from Partner's Store (eg Boost) for each refereed-sales, say 3%. The master is Boost & the servant is TopCashbackAU…has the penny-drop ?

  I wonder if this is another condition that's not enforced like needing to activate the sim within x days for cashback to be payable

    Store Reptightarse @ TopCashback AU on 13/08/2024 - 09:47

    What makes you think conditions aren’t enforced, especially the 30 day one? Please read the second half of this comment:

      Ah right, missed that one I guess because I haven't bought a Boost sim in a few months. It was definitely not enforced before but it is now.

      So the tldr is this isnt really “free” per se? Its just clever advertising? :)

        It's free if you follow the terms.

          @HamBoi69: Does one have to recharge it for the full price for the second month etc till the amount is paid? Is that the definition of “not be deactivated”? Sorry honestly have no clue, just thought id ask

            @H8Pootin: Apparently you don't. You can disable auto-renew during activation. SIM card will still be "active" i.e receiving phone calls and texts. SIM card will only be disabled after 6 months without recharge. However cancelling your service or porting out (or even SIM swap??) will disable your SIM hence it won't be approved for cashback.

    Isn't that that old pesky error? Surprised it's still happening even after all the Boost "profit" deals have dried up

      I guess Boost intentionally declines orders from some people for some reasons although they have never mentioned it.

      Every time when I reported this issue to Boost support, they would ask me to try to order through their app directly. After I have told them I had to order through cashback providers in order to get the cashback, they did not want to follow up any more but just ask me to contact the support of those cashback providers even I told them that it was obviously something wrong with their Boost ordering system because those cashback providers just redirect to the Boost Mobile web site for the transactions.

      Since at the same time someone can put in orders successfully but someone cannot, I think Boost applies order blocks to some people, probably frequent SIM card buyers. But I do not know what exact info they base on to apply blocks.
