Get an additional 6 months free Presto. For existing customers in their last month OR for new customers.

SMS Presto to 0484100900 from any mobile that you have not already used to SMS this number.

This will give you a code starting with TEL that can be used to get an additional 6 months free Presto if you are in your last free month prior to 31 July 2016. Get the code now and use before 31 July 2016.

Similar to a previous free 6 months Presto but with a different number to SMS to. And with this one the code you receive is valid for use until 31 July 2016.

****EDIT*****
For 9 months free Presto:

(1) Signup as a new customer and use the 3 months free code posted earlier today (TELXAM16 thanks to qiqi1021).
(2) SMS as detailed here and get your 6 months free code now while you can.
(3) Between 10 July 2016 and 31 July 2016 you are in your last free month from the 3 month code so use your 6 month free code which is still valid.

****EDIT*****

I can confirm deal to obtain 6 month free code by SMS has EXPIRED.

    Thank you! Got the code instantly!
    Another 6 mths free. My current free 6mth is coming to an end next mth.
    Thx OP!
    Kids can continue watching cartoons now for another 6 mths.

  • realfancyman on 09/05/2016 - 16:07

    Are these codes stackable? i.e send presto to the number four times get four codes / two years

    • bruc3 on 09/05/2016 - 16:10

      Looks like you can only apply 1 code each time i.e. 6 Months, and it cannot be used after 31 July 2016, so the answer is "No" it is not stackable.

      • realfancyman on 09/05/2016 - 16:14

        @bruc3 Ok, but would you be able to keep these codes and after the other one has expired, you could add the next one?

        • bruc3 on 09/05/2016 - 16:23
          +1

          If you read the OP, it says "the code you receive is valid for use until 31 July 2016."

          So once again, I dont think you can use it since by the time the first 6 Months expires, your codes will no longer be valid.

        • realfancyman on 09/05/2016 - 16:24

          @bruc3: Ah, didn't see that bit. Thanks bruc3.

          @bruc3:

          You can pause free accounts for a few months though, so could in theory setup two… and pause 1 for now i guess…

          Though I have had 100% free access since March 2015 now so it might just continue like this….

  • unco on 09/05/2016 - 16:09

    I can input the code and get the $0 for 6 months offer, but when I click subscribe I get an error message.
    "Uh-oh! Presto has encountered a bit of a glitch. We are working hard to fix it, so you can try again in a few minutes or come back later."

  • revivor on 09/05/2016 - 16:15

    Question:
    Where do I insert the code as I'm already using Presto in my last free month?
    Update- answered above! Duh! Still a few more days till the 1mth expiry.

  • Twisty on 09/05/2016 - 16:20

    i signed up last time for 6 months an I never used it once. A mate checked it out while he was over but besides that it went unused.

    How do you view it? Seems WDLive is missing in supported apps. Do I need to buy new device? First playing on computer and then streaming via chromecast seems like a hassle. there isn't an app like netflix?

  • Twisty on 09/05/2016 - 16:24

    ok I got it working, I wish they gave you a date when you subscriptions ends rather then saying 6 months free

      Click 'pause subscription' and on the confirmation dialog it will give you the date when your subscription expires

      • Twisty on 09/05/2016 - 16:42

        Thanks
        Strange I just entered my SMS code and it said success but when I did the check date it came back saying 7/6/16 which is the next billing date of $0.00

        • Forenti on 09/05/2016 - 16:58

          Ah you're right sorry, mine says the same. Must only give you the rest of the month if you cancel or something like that.

  • voteoften on 09/05/2016 - 16:36

    I subscribed for six months free on 20/2/2016. So on 21/7/2016 I'll be in my last month. Do you reckon I need to enter my code between 21/7/2016 and 31/7/2016 or do you think I can enter it anytime in July 2016. I could possibly be overseas. And I think they won't let you do anything if you are not actually in oz.

    Thanks OP

  • madllama on 09/05/2016 - 16:41

    I got the code within about 15 seconds (optus mobile). However there isnt a box under my existing account where I can enter a promo code. I have contacted support to find out where it might be?

    No ones worried about them selling their mobile numbers and getting telemarketer calls forever?

    Or do you have tons of fake numbers or some other solution?

    • mobo on 09/05/2016 - 17:49

      seems to be legit telstra. Pretty sure it's illegal for them to use the number other than for the purposes they collected it.

    • Name on 09/05/2016 - 20:07

      I am on the optus network but have a telstra sim to buy play store stuff at 50% off. So for any deals or promos etc where you need a number, I use that sim. Might be worth getting one of these throw away sims if you're concerned about marketing calls. I just keep that sim in an old phone, only gets turned on when I need to buy something or to get a code like tonight. ;)

    Joined up for last "free" trial, only to find useless for Android and Apple tv… Forgot to toggle unsusbscribe, and got slugged for two months at fifteen bucks before I realised they'd charged me for a service I never used. They don't send you invoices or reminders.
    I sent them an email (because you can't ring them) and got some bullshit story about reading the fine print.

    I don't have a single good word to say about them.

      why is it useless? not compatible, glitchy or something else?

    Presto works fine in web browsers on windows. However I'd recommend a graphics card, using a GT710 (around $65) and it's perfect - smooth 1080p. Output to your tv with an hdmi cable, and you're done. By the way it has better resolution than Foxtel GO. Many movies are 4-5gb, Foxtel GO uses lower bandwidth.

    • bruc3 on 10/05/2016 - 13:31

      You must be mistaken, Presto HD does not work from computer, unless you output via Chromecast or something similar.

    Whatever the volume was when you start Presto will be the volume during using the App.

        I was watching Fury and if you cant get Full HD on a desktop, the service is junk. Besides Between Netflix (4k res) Stan (1080P), Presto doesn't even stand a chance, they have a limited selection of movies along with horrible quality, also, Do you really want them to have your credit card 9 months down the track when you forget and get billed?
