      It's $100 within the first 6 months. After 6 months it's only $27.50 regardless of what model and make.

      Just tried the code-unlocking.com site, it's been 24 hours and all they've sent me are emails consistent with templates from their original scamming sites, according to someone reporting thus scam on the whirlpool forums + reviews. For eg "William is now working on your code, will take 24 hrs", then received an email "could not retrieve code because more info required", in which case they wanted IMEi number again + further 24 hrs. Requested full refund if they couldn't get me a code, so got a refund today

    • Blinkenlights on 30/10/2014 - 13:33
      +2

      I also tried www.code-unlocking.com. After 16 hours they sent an email "Liam is working manually on your code, will take another 24 hours" and asked for the IMEI number again. I responded - who knows, maybe there really was a person sending this?

      Anyway, I waited until 24 hours after the original order, as otherwise they could keep me waiting forever with an email a day, really - then requested a refund.

      For others who want a refund: Go to the paypal website, and start the process for a dispute - then a message pops up saying you can get a full refund by going to a URL on www.code-unlocking.com website - go to the URL, enter your paypal email address, and the refund happens.

      If they were going to provide the unlock, it would have happened without delays, surely. I would say don't use them.

    • [Deactivated] on 30/10/2014 - 17:55

      I ordered two phone codes about a year or two ago from these guys. Same result couldn't unlock after taking money.
      Point is after saying they would refund they didn't!
      Contacted a week later, they refunded immediately.
      So best to check your refund.

    I'm South of River in Perth and I've been trying to get hold of the phone. Cannington store said they only have two phones at the start of the sale and they have been sold out- they're not allowed to give rainchecks (??). Maddington says they have nine phones but can't sell them because the computer system wouldn't recognise them (??). This phone seems a little elusive in perth!

    according to the full specs link in the description , networks are :

    GSM network: 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz

    I think optus needs both 900 and 2100 for good performance so probably not the best for optus.

    • tanksinatra on 30/10/2014 - 17:44
      +2

      lol. Incorrect. You're comparing 2G specs to the 3G Network.

      The Lumia 530 supports WCDMA(3G) Quadband - bands 1, 2, 5, 8. Thats 2100/1900/850/900Mhz.
      So absolutely perfect for Optus… and Telstra… and Vodafone. That's what makes this phone so great!

      Often phones from a carrier won't support other carriers frequencies. E.g. the Lumia 520 which is only tri-band. It's available in two different editions for Telstra and Optus and is not compatible between them.

      • ugoagogo on 30/10/2014 - 19:50

        just going from what i read here:

        http://www.mobilenetworkguide.com.au/australian_mobile_phone…

        The carriers have chosen to utilise the lower frequency such as 700, 800 and 900 for their primary bands because they offer much better range and building penetration than the higher bands. As a result you will find that these lower bands are widely used in country areas.

        The higher 1800/2100 bands are very useful to the carriers in highly populated areas due to the increased user capacity that they offer

        so 900 good for country and 2100 good for city

    I bought one in Bondi Junction yesterday. Plenty left. Very happy with the phone. I thought I would be using it mostly as fm radio but I was very surprised with mix radio and the ability to save tracks and listen to it offline. Maps are ok and can also be used offline. Web browsing is good. For those who will be using it as a spare phone I recommend to be careful as the battery doesn't last that long. No memory card on mine but can't complain. You will need a memory card tho!

  • Kevan2 on 30/10/2014 - 21:41

  • S3ISOR on 31/10/2014 - 06:40

    This is a great price for a backup phone (or a main phone too). I bought 2 (1 as a backup, 1 for my grandmother). Heck, at this price it's only slightly dearer than a toy phone you'd give you kids! (Give it to them when you're done with it)
    Like others have said, the TFT screen is bad (even worse than dodgy cheap LCD screens). But I'm surprised how smooth, quick and responsive the phone is. It's definitely faster than a Lumia 520 (which my father in law has), but the 520 has a better screen. Anyway, Windows phone is clearly very well optimised to perform on low specs. If you are considering buying one, just get it an give it a go. You could probably sell it if you don't like it anyway. Thanks OP!

  • Dubrave on 31/10/2014 - 07:40

    Got this in the mail this morning:

    "Unfortunately we have been unable to generate an unlock code for your
    mobile phone. There are so many mobile phones on the market today
    and not all of them can be unlocked. This can be for a variety of reasons
    and is not limited to certain makes or models, occasionally it can be linked
    to the amount of time the handset has been locked to a particular network.

    Your options now may now be limited to contacting your network operator or visiting
    a local shop who can unlock your mobile while you wait. It is very unlikely another
    online company will have the unlock code but you could always give it a try.

    I will now forward your details to our dedicated accounts team who will deal with
    your refund. Refunds can occasionally take up to 7 days but will usually be back
    in your account a lot faster than this.

    Once again may I apologise on behalf of the Code Unlocking team and wish you every
    success in getting your mobile unlocked.

    Thanks
    Liam White"

      • eug on 01/11/2014 - 12:57

        The lock code can either be based on an algorithm, or specific to a provider. If the latter, his supplier might have someone working in Telstra with access to the database. I think it's just sitting on the intranet, actually.

  • macfanboy on 31/10/2014 - 11:11

    Please excuse my total ignorance but if i purchase the Telstra 3G USB+WIFI, can i activate it when i want, like in a few months when i go away for a weeks holiday? Once the 1GB is used up does it stop working or continue and charge you. Also can you then use this USB device and get a recharge for 1 month later…

    Grabbed two last night from two different stores (Gold Coast, QLD) both had more stock.
    1st one I got as a backup/emergency phone when cycling/running, so I don't have to carry my Oneplus One.

    Also grabbed a couple of $30 starter kits for $15 each from DSE. That will keep me going for 120days.

    The second I grabbed for my father-in-law who has been complaining about his iPhone4 for months now… WindowsPhone seems quite intuative and a good option for older/less technical folk. I'm impressed from initial setup & playing.

    • aiyoyo on 31/10/2014 - 14:26

      How to use the starter kits for monthly recharge?It is possible?

      • ozdavo on 31/10/2014 - 17:27

        For me, as it is going to be a back-up phone, I plan to use the starter pack for "Simplicity" $30 for 60days, then when then when it expires, use the next starter pack.
        http://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/prepaid-mobiles/offers-and-rates/?&red=/mobile-phones/prepaid-mobiles/offers-rates/&tc=G|E|D|TP|TPREP|PrepaidMobileTermsBrand&mqp=svED8dO43|dc_47143153723_telstra%20prepaid%20mobile_e&gclid=CjwKEAjww8eiBRCE7qvK9Z7W_DgSJABfOjf2xsLjbRO-zaqRvPwk2M8oHt38Y4sLbtPJcWx9yu1PNhoCSqHw_wcB

        But Telstra have a thing called Credit Me2U where you can transfer credit from one account to another. I haven't used it & I think there may be a bit of stuffing around, but there is a detailed thread on whirlpool about using these starter kits to recharge.

      was filled with joy, until I realised remove Telstra branding, doesn't unlock the phone :(

      Nice, but is it worth it?
      The only branding I see is a Telstra logo splash screen on boot-up and an app that is easily uninstalled. What's the risk of bricking the phone?

        removing the Telstra branding allows u to upgrade its Windows Phone 8.1 version to 8.10.14147.180 or beyond. hence you can get Cortana to works in Australia as your local Region.

        Telstra is always lagging behind in firmware updates. these Telstra Lumia 530 are @ version 8.10.12400.899 atm. who knows how long u have to wait to get the update
