    What's the cheapest Optus prepaid plan that could access this. Would it be possible to go and buy one of those $2 sim packs and register with that for the pass?

    • [Deactivated] on 29/10/2015 - 17:26

      According to the deal description, the unmetered access is post-paid only, I don't know if it prepaid is eligable on a metered basis or if they allow Wi-Fi streaming too.

  • apprentice on 29/10/2015 - 14:40

    I assume i will be able to access the advantage by registering a $2 prepaid sim card?

    • hashtagbargain on 29/10/2015 - 14:52

      Here's some info from the pdf

      Prepaid Plans
      All Prepaid Plans are eligible for data free streaming (excluding Coles Prepaid plans),
      provided customers have a positive MyCredit, Credit or data balance.

      • take on 29/10/2015 - 15:01

        But what happens when your data expires in 30 days (the highest recharge)? Can you continue using the service or would you need to recharge again to have a positive balance

        • hashtagbargain on 29/10/2015 - 15:03

          From what I understand, the cricket pass would be valid, but you wouldn't be able to stream for free through Optus.

        • Tnetennba on 29/10/2015 - 16:10

          @hashtagbargain: You can only stream for free on POSTPAID, not prepaid. If you're on a $2 prepaid sim you must use WiFi or buy data.

        • Hessian Sack on 29/10/2015 - 17:17

          @brezzo: As quoted by @hashtagbargain above: "All Prepaid Plans are eligible for data free streaming (excluding Coles Prepaid plans), provided customers have a positive MyCredit, Credit or data balance"

        • hashtagbargain on 29/10/2015 - 17:36
          +1

          @brezzo: This is wrong, see the pdf - it clearly says free data streaming if you have a positive balance on your prepaid.

        • Tnetennba on 29/10/2015 - 22:03

          @hashtagbargain: My bad, the OP's post says just postpaid, and I didn't read all of it (oops). Quality deal, then!

  • Gavman on 29/10/2015 - 14:41

    Good luck Optus. Seams the deal wont last long as Channel 9 will be streaming ALL channels 24/7 for free on new app from 2016.

    • Associatedxcx @ Optus Accessories on 29/10/2015 - 14:43
      +1

      I wonder if channel 9 has the rights for streaming sporting events though. I'd assume Cricket Australia would have the exclusive streaming rights for their own site/apps.

      • Gavman on 29/10/2015 - 14:45

        Time will tell.. Anti Siphoning rules exempt the ashes

          +1

          The anti-siphoning law only applies to TV. It's irrelevant to streaming and wouldn't block Cricket Australia from having exclusive streaming rights.

        • Gavman on 29/10/2015 - 15:09

          I don't see them blocking this but anyways.. Ch 7 have the same thing that just got released so this would allow streaming AFL

      I was thinking the same thing regarding channel 9 cricket content but the big bash is on channel 10 and haven't heard anything about 10 streaming their channels as yet.

    • barbargain on 29/10/2015 - 17:09

    I just tested the service in the morning as was able to watch CAXI vs New Zealanders Live in HD no problem at all.

    This is actually available for free to anyone who signs up.

    Good bargain anyway for those on Optus.

    For folks on Telstra prepaid, you can use recharge credit to buy the live pass through the app.

    • Gavman on 29/10/2015 - 14:47

      "This is actually available for free to anyone who signs up" …. HOW?

      • Associatedxcx @ Optus Accessories on 29/10/2015 - 14:51

        the shield games and one offs like the CAXI vs NZ etc are usually streamed for free as long as you just have a basic account. You need a paid subscription though if you want to access the internatinal stuff and big bash league. This optus deal gets you a paid sub for free.

      • Roary on 29/10/2015 - 14:53

        By signing up..

      • miarn on 29/10/2015 - 14:55

        The CA XI match and the current Shield matches are being streamed free on cricket.com.au. Just go to the CA website, sign in, click on the score then click on the streaming icon in the top left.

        As xccxxx mentioned, the international matches and BBL require a paid subscription, which is what this deal is for.

    Unfortunately there is no Cricket Australia windows phone app so may not be worth going to the trouble of taking this up.

    • [Deactivated] on 29/10/2015 - 15:04

      i think you can stream on cricket.com.au, this is at the bottom the page

      Streaming is available via Cricket Australia Live: The Official Application (for iOS and Android) and cricket.com.au but not Apple TV.

      • barghunt1 on 29/10/2015 - 15:10

        But unfortunately the stream wouldn't work on windows phone if there isn't the app.

        • [Deactivated] on 29/10/2015 - 15:17

          sorry i meant using a computer/laptop and watch on cricket.com.au

          If you are an eligible customer, you can enjoy a FREE Cricket Australia LIVE PASS so you can access the season's big Aussie games, plus the KFC T20 Big Bash League, streamed live to your smartphone, tablet or laptop

        • barghunt1 on 29/10/2015 - 15:55

          @aleg:

          No probs. :)

          Even though I was already aware that it could be used on pc I would make much more use of it on my windows phone. Hence why I made the original comment and why its disappointing there is no app.

        • ilikeradiohead on 29/10/2015 - 17:07

          @barghunt1: Could you not just access the website on your phone's browser?

        • barghunt1 on 02/11/2015 - 10:30

          @ilikeradiohead:

          No I don't think so. It would be the same as android or ios you would need an app to access something like this. For example with sbs on demand the website doesn't work on the phone. Instead I have to use the app.

  • NBAD25 on 29/10/2015 - 15:30

    Im a bit confused, they clearly say prepaid is fine. I signed up and registered without a problem. Then 30 seconds into my stream of CXI vs NZ I get the message saying "Oh hey wow cool bro, you only have 100mb data left!"

    I'll fight optus for $2 if they charge me!

    • barghunt1 on 29/10/2015 - 15:56

      As far as I understand you can take up the subscription for free if you have a prepaid mobile but to get free data streaming you have to be on certain post paid mobile plans.

      Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but that's how I read it.

      • NBAD25 on 29/10/2015 - 21:55

        "Prepaid Plans
        All Prepaid Plans are eligible for data free streaming"

  • FiDad on 29/10/2015 - 15:51

    This is great deal, I am definitely going to buy a $2 starter pack and register for free live pass. Don't care for free streaming, just need a live pass account so i can watch games on my mobile using wifi

      through app.

    When I get home tonight, I'll see if I still have that $15 mobile I bought for the netflix deal earlier this year. If so and it still can receive sms, I'll post the code here for anyone that wants it.

    Also in the next few weeks, I may be porting over to an optus starter kit I have at home that I bought during the $5 deal. I'll post the code for that as well.

    I'm not with Optus but this deal seems very good especially the data free part. What would be the best/cheapest way to get the service. Would something like the $30 long life expiry plan be suitable or is there something that can keep your balance in positive for less?

    • dracos93 on 28/11/2015 - 09:28

      I'd like to know this as well, but I don't think it does if you use the 4G to watch it on the website, cos I've used up some data by doing that. Someone earlier said that data free streaming only applies when you use the app. I'm gonna try using bluestacks to watch it on the app today to see if it works.
