Can I Use a $2 Sim to Use as a Port-out before Porting Back to Boost?

I'm already with Boost but I wish to port out and back again so I can use the 12-month SIM I have already purchased.

Can I just get a $2 Amaysim without credit for the port-out or do I have to put credit on it for it to work?

Thanks!

  • $2 Amaysim

    I didn't think Amaysim would let you do this without signing up a plan.

  • As far as I am aware all $2 sims need to be topped up prior to being able to be ported into/activated.

    Lebara has a $7 sim on special at coles at the moment.

    Amaysim has $10 options that'll work for porting without buying a $2 sim.

      Telstra you don't need.

    Unless it's changed quite recently, a $2 Telstra SIM will let you port from Boost to Telstra and back to Boost without further outlay. See https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/841500

    FWIW, the EzySim $4 offer still looks to be available, though it's marked as Expired at https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/868131

    • I ended up getting a $10 Amaysim starter kit. Thanks for the suggestion though

    • Thanks for providing these useful info. It is better for me to avoid EzySim.

  • Are they flat out refusing to do number swaps now ?
    I'm only a week off moving to my next Starter SIM.
    This time last year online chat wouldn't do it but over the phone were happy to.

      From what I read, contacting support to use a starter kit as a recharge voucher is a bit hit or miss

      • I had chat say no but their 1800 were happy to help.
