CR/SB and TCB are all silent with profit or low net cost deals on boost, amaysim and lyca. Is there anyone else I could look at?

The Yomojo offer is still current (it was extended until the end of this month). See https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/879308 (If you don't have a spare number to port in, you could always activate a $2 Telstra or Boost SIM to get one.)
Even though the EzySim offer is marked as expired, it still looks as though you can buy one. See https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/868131
Thanks Col, ezysim looks good at $4 for 30 days. Don't suppose you know when the number is deactivated after the 30 day expiry?
Their website leaves a lot to be desired. The closest thing that I could find on that subject is section 3.3 of the T&C's….
3.3 Where You do not recharge for a continuous period of 120 days following Your activation (for SIM’s with preloaded credit) or last recharge of the services; or 60 days following activation of SIM’s with preloaded plans the Agreement will terminate automatically and shall be deemed to be terminated by You.
Make of that what you will.
I had AI review the t&c and it concluded its 60 days
120 Days Condition:
Applies to SIMs with preloaded credit.
This means if your SIM came with credit already loaded (not a fixed plan), the agreement will terminate automatically if you do not recharge within 120 days after activation or your last recharge.
60 Days Condition:Applies to SIMs with preloaded plans.
If your SIM comes with a preloaded plan (like the 30-day "Sweet" plan), the agreement will terminate automatically if you do not recharge within 60 days of activation.For the "Sweet" Plan:
The "Sweet" plan is described as a 30-day preloaded plan. Based on the clause, it falls under the "SIMs with preloaded plans" category, meaning the agreement would terminate if you do not recharge within 60 days after activation or expiration of your last recharge.@txb: Long story short, I activated one today and I'll be letting it expire. So we'll know for sure….. eventually.
Just wondering whether the $2 telstra sim you can activate without having credit/plan? I just need the number for receiving text.
Officially, you can only receive calls and texts for 7 days, as per the notice during activation. In practice, you usually get 6 months (and then it's killed off). YMMV.
Ok cheers
Update: The EzySim $4 offer page returns a 404 error now.
I posted this Belong sim on special which has been popular.
