      I also would like to know the answer to this as well. I hope someone who knows how they work will give us a well-explained answer.

        There are already well explained answers, it just takes the time to read and comprehend the different options. Check out the whirlpool wiki http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/telstraprepaid

        I bought four for $10 each from Officeworks last week but I will grab a few more from this new deal. I haven't done the Telstra thing yet but seeming I have a dual SIM phone it is a no brainer.

  • DEvok on 14/12/2015 - 03:59

    $5 gives you 200min international calls, $700 local calls, and 7.5Gb of data that lasts 30 days just make sure you activate it before January 4th or something as extra bonus data is given out for the freedom plus plan.

    • TRENT86 on 14/12/2015 - 04:17

      Before Jan 25th I think the date is to get the extra data

  • mooreshady on 14/12/2015 - 08:45

    Wow $5 for $30. If you buy 12 of them can last for a year!

    • [Deactivated] on 18/12/2015 - 00:06

      You might need 13. Some Telstra prepaid plans have a duration of 28 days.

  • anna10 on 14/12/2015 - 10:03

    A noob question - If I put one of these in my iPad, and then take it over to the USA, approximately how long with that data last?

    • snvl on 14/12/2015 - 10:45

  • coolhead on 14/12/2015 - 12:47

    guys - never used these kist as I am on postpaid but with very less data 1 GB per month.
    do people who already have plans also buy these or not really…
    i am assuming people are already using prepaid or postpaid, so do you buy these as a switch over or additional sims?

    cheers

    • Baghern on 16/12/2015 - 16:14

      multiple reason.

      For most it would just be the google play credit.

      For others who don't care to have a permanent number they use it for the cheap data/calls. Or they have a 2nd phone and use that.

      For the smart ones, who have a dual sim phone they can use it all

      • YoursTruly on 16/12/2015 - 22:20

        Or you could transfer from one number to another carrier - if you took advantage of the $2 40 prepaid vodaphone sims they had at dicksmith the other day — or the $5/$10 30 Optus sims deal Woolworths had a few weeks ago

        • coolhead on 17/12/2015 - 10:58

          Thanks baghern & YoursTruly..
          thats what i was thinking but just wanted to get an opinion.. this is what i used to do in my uni days… cheap SIMS with alot of balance and call my GF with those numbers..

    Stopped at my local Coles, they had 6 or 7 Telstra kits. Seemingly from the same batch expiring Sep 2017.

    I took 2 and the best part, the look on the attendant's face was priceless when it scanned at $5 each.

    • sween64 on 16/12/2015 - 09:25

      "Oh that's cheap!"

      I got two with October expiry. I might get two more at Officeworkss just for the price beat.

    • YoursTruly on 16/12/2015 - 22:18

      Edit : replied to wrong post

  • Namkcalb on 16/12/2015 - 07:38

    They are already sold out in Hurstville Westfield. They are being rationed at 1 per person at the train station.

    You better be quick if you want tuna

    • Junk Sifter on 16/12/2015 - 17:55

      I just got one from Hurstville Westfield. She even asked how many I wanted lol. Train station one sold out.

  • snvl on 16/12/2015 - 08:40

    not sure if they didnt have any or somebody bought them all, but baulkham hills have none :(

  • prhino on 16/12/2015 - 09:00

    Only bothered to pick up 1

  • puddingguy on 16/12/2015 - 09:52

    What's the significance of the January 25th activation cut-off? Is this only for the bonus data, or do all of these kits effectively expire on that date? The fine print suggests the former, but the larger print is less clear.

    • lj87 on 16/12/2015 - 10:08
      +1

      25th Jan is for bonus 5GB data. Expiry on the kits will be late 2017 most likely (mine are Oct 2017).

  • tianyujojo on 16/12/2015 - 13:44

      All gone by the time I came in yesterday :(
      Wouldn't even give me a rain check

      • [Deactivated] on 18/12/2015 - 00:07

        Generally Coles don't give rainchecks on telco products.

  • LilDude on 16/12/2015 - 14:57

    About 5~10 left at Coles Sunnybank Hills Shopping Town Brisbane, however I was limited to 1 only. I then went to Coles Pinelands Sunnybank Hills Shopping Center Brisbane, again I was limited to only 1.

  • zan5hin on 16/12/2015 - 15:31

    @tianyujojo - thanks for the info , I was going to hit Tooronga tonight, will have to try somewhere else. So far I have 2 from Box Hill and I got 4 from Camberwell, I might have cleaned them out, because I asked for five.

    • sween64 on 16/12/2015 - 17:50

      Lucky I went to Camberwell at 8am this morning.

  • tianyujojo on 16/12/2015 - 19:41

    Took the last 3 from north land sc on my way home.

  • cv05 on 16/12/2015 - 20:11

    Got 2 this morning. The lady at the counter was very friendly and FAST! She said, oh I knew exactly where to look because someone just bought 5.

    There looked to be a heap there, so when I went past again I bought another 2. Obviously no limit at my store.

  • simprosimple on 16/12/2015 - 20:37

    Went to Coles and it is on the shelf with the $2 sim (not in counter), grabbed all 13 of them and use self checkout

    • HardQuiz on 16/12/2015 - 20:51

      Broden much ?

    • reservin on 16/12/2015 - 23:53

      Can you activate all 13? Isnt it limited to 5 pre-paid sim per person?

      • simprosimple on 17/12/2015 - 00:14

        U dont have to activate all of them at same time

        • reservin on 17/12/2015 - 00:21

          I mean even one at a time, you will have 13 pre-paid account under your name in the end. Is that ok?

        • simprosimple on 17/12/2015 - 00:24

          @reservin: just De-activate the service after finished using

        • reservin on 17/12/2015 - 00:33

    Score another one from Coles Coburg VIC. Sales assistant said it's the last one.

  • sween64 on 16/12/2015 - 21:48

    Often stores get regular, even daily delivers of these Starter Kits. A Coles employee may be able to verify this but it was the case for the Optus SIMs at Coles Express.

    • Stingo on 19/12/2015 - 02:24

      Not my Coles Express. I asked for a couple of expired SIM starter kits because my the freebie ATM voucher was just about to expire hoping Optus will exchange. Yes, maybe they get regular deliveries if your store is not slack in ordering them but there's probably no guarantees about that. I've had a similar experience at Woolies - I had to ask them to extend my rain check (which have a year's expiry) as the current customer service manager refused to provide a substitute product (as per the Woolies rain check policy.) despite the time elapsed which a previous asst. manager had done. Recently, I found another Woolies had stacks of them - but I didn't have my rain check with me - and I thought Voda had discontinued the product.

      • sween64 on 19/12/2015 - 09:46
        +1

        If you did manage to get expired Optus SIMs, try activating them. I've activated a couple that were past their expiry with no trouble.

        • Stingo on 19/12/2015 - 12:34

          Thanks. How far past? I might try that as a Plan B. The 2 I was forced to activate by the end of October from the previous promotion and another active one I found are still lying around here unused because I don't want to waste them with small amounts of usage. Still, I don't think I can manage to resist buying one of these Telstra starter kits.

        • sween64 on 19/12/2015 - 14:52

          @Stingo:

          Ahh I think I tried up to a week.

        • lgacb08 on 20/12/2015 - 07:58

          @Stingo: I once activated sim 1 month past expiry date, but also got a failed attempt on one over 1 month so I think generally within 1 month is safe for optus.

  • craigoss on 16/12/2015 - 21:48

    They had stacks of the Telstra sims at Tweed Heads around 4pm today.

  • YoursTruly on 16/12/2015 - 22:11

    The lady at the counter happily exclaimed "bloody rippa!" when she scanned them'~ obviously she didn't have a clue of the reduced price!

    Thanks OP, grabbed the 7 they had at Ellenbrook Coles

  • Jaybee88 on 17/12/2015 - 10:13

    Note Telstra have 5GB bonus if connect to their Freedom Plus prepaid plan. So $5 for 7.6GB in total !

  • CVonC on 18/12/2015 - 18:59

    Is there a point in getting a lot of these as you'll have to activate them all before 25 Jan to get the 5gb data. But that 5gb will only last 28 days from the date of activation right? So what would be the point of having say 25gb (5x5gb) if it will only be valid for one month? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    • sween64 on 19/12/2015 - 09:48

      Activate them later in the year.

      • CVonC on 19/12/2015 - 11:56

        yeah but you won't get the 5gb bonus though?

        • sween64 on 19/12/2015 - 14:50

          No. But on Data Pass you will get 3GB.
