$30 Pre-Paid SIM Starter Kit for $15 + $10 cashback from CashRewards here & free delivery.

Includes a single SIM in all sizes: Full Size, Micro and Nano

Enjoy!

MOD: PricePal is also offering the same $10 cashback for Telstra Prepaid SIM. See this merged comment. Basically

This deal is about Telstra $30 Prepaid SIM sold for $15
$10 cashback from affiliate network is available from either CashRewards or PricePal, independent from this deal.

Cashrewards has emailed me the receipt of the purchase however stating $8 cash back was processed. I guess it is a typo as I logged into my account and saw $10 cashback in my rewards balance.

Is it limited to one kit per customer?
- Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 15:58
  
  No, one kit per order (if you want the $10 cashback for each).
  - fatice on 03/08/2015 - 16:03
    
    Is it correct to say that if we order one at a time, we can get the $10 cash back for all the orders ?

      Yes. Although I had to manually chase up all my orders (from last time) with PricePal and CashRewards (but that's more likely to be browser related or just poor tracking on their part).
      
      Make sure you start from cashrewards for each.

      I don't think you can convert it to credits, but you can spend it in google play store.
      
      while connected to telstra network and not on wifi. buy something and when you go pay for it, there is a drop down arrow to allow you to select how you want to pay. I think the option is called carrier billing.

May not be the place to ask here, but has anyone receive their cashback from the last CashReward + Telstra deal back in the start of June?

My cashback has been sitting as 'cash balance' but not 'cash available' for quite a while.
- pyramid on 03/08/2015 - 16:12
  
  I guess it takes 90 days to get cash back in your account. So may be wait for few more weeks.
- snvl on 03/08/2015 - 16:17
  
  a friend of mine got it, I am still waiting on mine.
- Lenneth on 03/08/2015 - 17:17

    - Lenneth on 03/08/2015 - 18:26
      
      Thanks. Should be pretty safe to buy this to use a long time later when we need it.
Mooncakes on 03/08/2015 - 16:16

Is it ok to buy a bunch even If I got 5 prepaid sims already on my account?
- Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 16:20
  
  If they have no credit, technically yes.
  If you want to obey (the law?), just have them removed from your account.
  Telstra have a hard limit of ~30 (including inactive?), so you'll likely have to clean them out at some point in the future anyway.
  - Mooncakes on 03/08/2015 - 16:31
    
    So if i do have 5+ and select the option saying I don't have more than 5 I should be fine? also whats the best way to get them removed from my account
    - Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 16:33
      
      Yes. LiveChat. I have at least 9 on my account, the majority of which expired over 6mths ago with $0 credit. They won't care or check. Technically you could be reselling them (unless terms prohibit, although you gave them your ID, so you may be responsible for the SIM) or simply saving them for a rainy day when you have less than 5 services (last batch was expiry ~May 2017), so you're likely still fine to purchase them.
- cdaddy on 03/08/2015 - 23:14
  
  Just get them to throw the $30 credit on an existing number instead
visca on 03/08/2015 - 16:19

I am new to prepaid so I have a question, is it possible to transfer credits from these to an existing number without registering the new number?
- Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 16:21
  
  If you have an existing Telstra prepaid number, you can transfer the credit using 'Credit ME2U' for a 25c fee per $10 (max per day).
  
  It's easier if you have a spare phone to do this, but there's nothing stopping you temporarily swapping the SIM into your own phone, or even doing it via Telstra LiveChat.
  - visca on 03/08/2015 - 16:23
    
    thanks Lukian but can I do that without going and registering the new number?
    - Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 16:23
      
      I'm not sure what you mean by "registering". You have to "activate" the SIM, which does activate it's own number, but you don't have to use the number, nor transfer it.
    - visca on 03/08/2015 - 16:26
      
      @Lukian: register==activate sorry about the terminology but yes thanks for the info
    - nerd1 on 03/08/2015 - 16:32
      
      you will have to active the new sim and start trasnferring the credit in the first 30(?) days.
    - Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 16:35
      
      @nerd1: Depends which offer/expiry option you chose. But within 30 days is the default expiry after activation.
  - fatice on 03/08/2015 - 16:39
    
    I can do $20 per day.
    
    $10 from the app (web portal)
    $10 from dialing #100#.
    - Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 16:41
      
      That'll speed up transfers and #100# means not accidentally using mobile data on the ones people choose to activate as long expiry. Thanks!
    - 1stOzBargainer on 03/08/2015 - 17:19
      
      FYI I was able to get the web portal to do more than 1 transfer per day to the same number
      YMMV
    - Kazsaix on 03/08/2015 - 23:18
      
      @1stOzBarginer:
      If you use different browsers on your phone you should be able to transfer more than once.

nismo on 03/08/2015 - 16:47

I'll pass - still waiting for the Cashback from June. Logged a query with CR and this is where it's at:

June 11th:

We have submitted an enquiry with Telstra, in relation to your cashback.
Enquiries for non-reported transactions generally take 30 - 90 days for a resolution.

I'm now 54 days in…

BTW: I followed all of the CR instructions perfectly.
- fatice on 03/08/2015 - 16:50
  
  Does Cashreward need you to activate the sim card before giving cash back ?
  - nismo on 03/08/2015 - 16:54
    
    No, not at all.
    
    CR rely on the transaction being reported back to them from Telstra, that you made the purchase. CR asked me to provide a copy of the invoice, which I did.

Even without the cashback this is a good deal.
- Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 18:06
  
  $10-12 is a good deal, $8 is a great deal, $1 is a fantastic deal and $0 is the best deal!
  
  $15 is an average deal, because it's quite common. By that claim 20% off iTunes cards is a good deal!
  - Lenneth on 03/08/2015 - 18:24
    
    We're been spoiled by some really good deals on ozb but at $15 that is still a really good deal. That's 50% off anything on the google play store. 2 itunes cards for the price of 1 is a good deal which is essentially the same as this money-wise.
    
    The best itunes deal I got was a free $10 card on ozbargain but that was a once-off a long time ago.
CyberMurning on 03/08/2015 - 17:16

SimpleLeverage on 03/08/2015 - 17:25

I've never used Telstra Prepaid Kit before - Hope someone may be able to help advise me.

1) Am I right to say I can choose any of the plans (Freedom, Long-life etc) with this Kit?

2) If I purchase 2 or more kits, can I just activate the first one; then use my additional kits as recharges?

Thanks!
- Mooncakes on 03/08/2015 - 17:36
  
  1) Yes
  2) No, you must activate both sims. But you could do CM2U but that will only transfer the "recharge credit($30)" not talk/txt credit($220)
  - SimpleLeverage on 03/08/2015 - 17:50
    
    Thanks Jetship.
    
    With regards to 2), does that mean I can use one kit to sign up for Long Life which will give me $30 credit for 6 months, and in ~4 months time when I've used the $30, I can activate my second kit and CM2U $29 of credit ($30 less 3x 25cents fee) to my Long Life number?
    - Lukian on 03/08/2015 - 18:07
      
      Yes, but that will only extend the expiry by a few days.

      @SimpleLeverage: Here is the list of OzBargain wiki on mobiles: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/category:mobile
      
      There isn't an Optus PP wiki because Optus PP plans do not have as many options as Telstra, and also because no one has bothered to write one. You may wish to read the Whirlpool Prepaid Mobile wiki and discussion threads there: http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/prepaid_mobile Unfortunately, sections of that wiki, including Optus, is quite outdated.

    Hi, so confirming, I activate 2x $30 Starter Kits.
    
    Both have $30 credit on each, and I can CM2U at $10 a time (costs 25c) and do this a few times.
    
    Then my initial Prepaid sim could have $59 on it, and I can buy an In App Purchase off Google Play using this credit?
    
    I have a Premium IAP that I want that costs $34. Hoping this would work

  Either* although I think you'll find it is 2GB data, unless the rates have changed since I last checked.
