    Is there any monthly option that is cheaper per month than this?

    • CyberMurning on 30/12/2024 - 12:26

      well depending how many GB you need, for me this is cheap and enough data

      • Musiclover on 30/12/2024 - 12:29

        If I just need min. Say 2GB per month?

              @Musiclover: Why would Aldi $5 sim be good for you if you need 2GB per month, the data costs 6c per MB? and if you need calls it's 15c per minute. Aldi $5 sim is good for long life on a very low use device, but not a gig or 2 a month.

              • Musiclover on 01/01/2025 - 13:38

                @petestrash: I could get away with something as little as 500Mb and minimal calls… Would just have to try and see if it would be enough.

                • petestrash on 01/01/2025 - 17:48

                  @Musiclover: If you now change from saying 2GB a month, to 500MB a month might be enough, you would still be paying $30 a month just on data without calls or SMS. You're much better off on this yearly plan at around $9 a month which includes a ton of data well over your needs, and includes SMS and calls.

                  • CyberMurning on 01/01/2025 - 19:14

                  @Musiclover: hmm.. I tried that will aldi sim and a kids phone.. amazing how difficult it is to limit apps from blowing away all the data instantly and suddenly $90 worth of aldimobile PAYG credit disappeared, needless to say have ported out of aldi mobile and now on the catch connect for that use cases nearly 1 year in.. but yep this deal is a bit overkill for my use case too. I recon 2 gig a month could be workable without micromanaging the app usage on the phone.

        Does that mean we've gotta activate it before 28/01/25 or that new customers won't be able to buy it after that date?

        • wt860 on 06/01/2025 - 23:48

          Activate it before 28/01/25 or use as $150 credit plan after that (Maybe 6 month plan)

            @wt860: Other people have since spoken to Catch Connects chat and they were told you've got 2 years to activate it so I think it's just you won't be able to purchase the sim with this plan after the 28th. Mine hasn't even shipped yet so it wouldn't be reasonable to expect it to be activated within a couple weeks.

    $119 for first 365 days: Offer ends 28/01/25, unless withdrawn earlier. $150 plan will be no longer be available to new customers from 28/01/25. Discount applies to SIM purchase only. Ongoing recharges revert to standard price of $150 or as otherwise advertised. New services only. All data allowance is applied upfront after $119 payment and SIM activation. Activate SIM within 30 days of purchase, or by the date advertised in a promotion, whichever is earlier, to receive advertised inclusions.

  • Mydc5r on 30/12/2024 - 12:33
    +3

    They have this discount every few weeks. All marketing.

  • CyberMurning on 30/12/2024 - 12:35
    +1

    You must activate your chosen prepaid plan on catchconnect.com.au or on the Catch Connect App within 30 days of purchase or by the date advertised on the promotion (whichever is earlier). Additionally, you must activate your Catch Connect SIM card within 24 months of purchase, otherwise the SIM card will be cancelled.

    in this case, there is no further promo or bonus data for example on this so i think its safe to activate within 24months

    • Mydc5r on 30/12/2024 - 12:47

      Correct since no bonus data

    • Andrew1232 on 30/12/2024 - 14:11
      +2

      What's the difference between activating on the App (30days) vs activating the sim (24months), does the 365day plan only start once the sim is activated or when the plan is activated in the app?

      • Switchblade88 on 30/12/2024 - 14:38
        +6

        The 30 day limit is for any 'bonus' things like promo data. Since this SIM is paid for when sent, there isn't a bonus to worry about.

        The 24 month period is for when the SIM card will 'expire' and not be accepted by Optus for activation, though this is a pretty lenient timeframe and not likely to be enforced too stringently.

        Your plan should start when you activate in the app, not when you pay.

      • CyberMurning on 30/12/2024 - 15:42
        +1

        some sim plan has something like bonus 10GB on top of the normal GB, and expire at XX
        then that is the 30 days
        this one doesnt have so 24mth

              @dpk: Oh that's odd, cause I did still get the $10 discount at the time (price was $150 down to $140). All payment was GC too. Was just about to buy this plan, so won't get any GC just in case it no longer works. Thanks.

      If you buy 2 SIM cards now, activate one to use ( bring in existing mobile number if necessary), turn off auto renewal, this service will last 12 months, carefully put away the 2nd Sim and bring out in 12 months(can be activated up to 24 months after purchase), if want to keep the existing mobile no. will need another provider ($2 Telstra from OW,Coles,Woolies), to port to from old Optus Sim and then port from Telstra Sim to new Optus Sim. In Telstra app choose "connect with out recharge"
      so not committed to a plan and no credit card needed.

      Seems like this is the cheapest yearly plan with a decent amount of data at the moment? Going to need one for the kid starting highschool next year.

      better buy this plan now if you want $150/120GB plan (it will no longer be available on 28/1/25)

      The way things are going, many companies (e.g. Woolies) want to increase their profit to approx $200+ / 200GB plan with increased in data (as the justification for the increased in price)
      but they know many people don't need or use that much data per year.

      Many people use 100GB or less and prefer to pay less money e.g. $150 or less rather than $200+.

              • pinkybrain on 13/01/2025 - 17:58

                @CyberMurning: I think you need you activate it before 28/1/2025 if you want to be on the $150/120GB plan
                since the $150 plan no longer will be available on 28/1/2025.

                And since that plan will no longer will be available, you will be put onto their new replacement plan
                which is likely to be $200+/200GB but you just won't need to pay the extra $ since you already bought the $120 prepaid sim…

                However future recharges will require you to pay $200+ instead of $150..

                  @pinkybrain: I'm not sure if that's right. It just wont be available to purchase after that date, but as we have already purchased the $150/120GB plan as specified in the accompanying letter I imagine that's what will be activated within the 24 months.

      Official blurb says can activate up to 24 months after purchase. This 365 day plan is no longer able to be purchased after 28/1/25 , bit like what boost did - got rid of their $230/160Gb 365 plans (could be had for $175-180 for 170Gb. This is forcing users to pay more and get more data that they don't use. Can't really see a statement from Catch Connect to see what the ongoing 365day new user plans will be after 28/1/25.

        most likely it will be increase in price to $200+ with more GBs (e.g.215GB which many people don't actually use)

        This is what they also did with woolworths mobile.

        Many of these companies know that most people use 100GB or less per year
        so the companies want to increase their profit by increasing the plan price (with a fake incentive of more data to justify the price increase which they know many people don't need or use)
