Not as good as getting paid to buy a SIM card but Telstra isn't trying to bump up its subscriber numbers to get bought by Telstra (cough Boost cough). I know this is kind of run of the mill and not very exciting. Why am I posting it? I don't know. I'm tired.

    Interesting, actually makes $17 for Telstra sound quite good vs $12 for Voda. Personally I'd happily pay the extra but I'm sure many would prefer the $5 in their pocket. Also did you see the $17 at the supermarket?

      Indeed value always depends on the individual. Telstra offers no benefit that I would pay an additional 42% for.

      Coles and Woolworths have discounted SIMs essentially every week. The Woolworths catalogue has three 'Better than 1/2 price' specials on Lebara starter packs (10GB, 80GB and 200GB), one 'Better than 1/2 price' special on Telstra (40GB), and one 'Better than 1/2 price' special on Vodafone (105GB for $17).

      However, the Vodafone 105GB is cheaper ($15) via vodafone.com.au plus there is a $5 CashRewards cashback to bring the net cost down to $10.

  dumb question but when it says '80GB on first three recharges (25GB + 55GB activation bonus)' does that mean you get 25GB when activated and then 80GB only when you recharge (@$49) or do you get 80GB when you activate?

    Not a dumb question, the mobile industry's defnition of "recharge" is counter-intuitive. Activation is considered to be the first recharge.

    You can deduce this from the T&Cs.

    80GB on first three recharges … Activate by 7 July 2025, remaining recharges by 5 September 2025.

      GenerallyClumsy on 10/04/2025 - 06:43

      So does that mean that activation counts as a recharge?

        UrMumsOnlyFan on 10/04/2025 - 07:19

        As per my post, activation is considered to be the first recharge.

      Went to woolies to check, no go. Telstra pricing is independent from other stores
