    Can a mod please check IPs of neg voters on my last comment? I doubt I received 8 legitimate negs for commenting about my negative experience with the company. On top of this, 8 down votes with no replies is fishy as hell.

    Overall the service as a whole isn't bad, just it has the feel of a hacked together virtual telco - nothing feels professional like with a direct provider. Billing system, support, etc, all feels unprofessional. Great as a first plan for a child or something, not great as your personal main sim.

    Edit: I understand my expeience may be isolated, though I still doubt the community believes it shouldn't be seen - I'm sure the majority would still want to know that some of us have had poor experiences with the company.

    Edit2: Also, $10 setup fee should be in title IMO…

      I'll fess up, I was one of the 11 to date who negged that comment to revoke the neg vote on the deal.

      Nothing against you personally. IMHO, your comments had some merit; yours hasn't been anything like my experience with the company, but I think most of us were willing to take your perspective on board anyway; however, again IMHO the neg on the deal itself wasn't really valid based on your one isolated case of dissatisfaction.

        Cheers on the reply. That makes sense I guess, I just had assumed it was correct to neg anyway to ensure people see some (even if it's 1 to 100+ up votes) have had problems with the company.

        Overall they fixed the majority of problems (eventually) so I can't complain to much. They also now state that EVERYONE will be on direct debit with their services (in OP), so I guess that's sort of fixed - no more giving ID for a credit check and being signed up to direct debit…

    gotta say i was surprised by this email ,off to a good start

    "We thought it was only fair

    You may have noticed that we recently launched a promotion on our $18 Pennywise Essentials plan, offering customers signing up to this plan the option of adding an extra 200MB or an extra 200 call minutes to their plan, free of charge.

    Since you just recently signed up for this plan, we thought it was only fair to offer the same bonus to you. So starting from your next billing month, we'll be adding an extra 200MB to your data allowance, absolutely free. If you'd prefer to have the bonus 200 call minutes instead, just send us a quick message, or give us a call on 1300 054 631 and we'll make it happen.

    We hope you enjoy this little bonus, and continue to enjoy everything Jeenee Mobile has to offer."

      Nice.

      Side note: What does it say about us as a society when a little simple integrity takes us by surprise nowadays! ;)

  • theaussie on 04/06/2016 - 11:25

    So if this is the best deal at the moment….don't we then all go to Vaya for the price beat guarantee?!!!

    they should be able to offer the same $18 for 2GB + first month free?

    • treeman on 04/06/2016 - 13:47

      Problem is they are Vaya!

      • theaussie on 04/06/2016 - 17:05

        What is the problem with them? I haven't been used them. Any feedback of vaya would be good?

        • treeman on 06/06/2016 - 09:45

          Do a search on here and whirlpool heaps of people have had issues.
          Having said that my Father uses them and it yet to occur a problem.
          You may be fine just be weary.

          Things like if you leave they keep billing you and it is hard to get off.
          Call centre is very bad and unhelpful.

          Others can help out I'm sure.

        • theaussie on 07/06/2016 - 11:32

          @treeman: oh thanks. ill have a browse. i like to jump around a bit so that could be a problem. thanks for your reply

          @treeman: their direct debit can fail too and they will blame you for that and charge you fee.

    • zzyss on 08/06/2016 - 15:42

      Because the Vaya deal is actually a rip off? You have to find another providing that is selling a plan for cheaper that has the EXACT SAME specs (calls, text, data) as the Vaya one. Then they will match the price.

      Vaya doesn't have a plan with 200 mins, unlimited text and 2Gb data (theirs is 2Gb, unlimited calls and SMS).

  • bargainhereicome on 07/06/2016 - 01:10

    Hi rep, how do i choose offer 3? 200mb data is the only option i can choose from your webiste?

    • tonester on 07/06/2016 - 04:54

      below "Choose your free bonus:" is a drop-down box with the 3 options :)

  • bulletNOVA on 09/06/2016 - 03:13

    If I am currently using a vodafone, how do I keep my number and change from vodafone to this service provider?

    • zzyss on 09/06/2016 - 10:54

      I think when you activate you can specify that it's a number porting, and it'll be processed that way. Should be quick (same day, even?) if coming from a non-Optus network, which you are…

      I'll be doing the same from Telstra shortly.

    • bargainhereicome on 10/06/2016 - 00:43

      when u add to cart, theres a option that u can tick and provide your current number and provider details

      • bulletNOVA on 10/06/2016 - 01:11

        Alright thanks!

  • arctan on 09/06/2016 - 20:47

    Just called up and they still havent sent out my sim!
    Not happy!

    • treeman on 10/06/2016 - 12:22

      Just be patient.

  • shapers on 11/06/2016 - 08:33

    So anyone know what happens to the plan once the 3 months/ 1 month is up?
    Will we lose the bonus?

      No you keep it.

  • bargainhereicome on 13/06/2016 - 22:27

    sign up last week and still waiting the text message to say the sim card has been posted, seems a bit slow , rep whats going on???

  • [Deactivated] on 14/06/2016 - 21:08

    still waiting for sim. verified email. It's taking forever!

  • [Deactivated] on 17/06/2016 - 07:40

    Anyone who has signed up might need to expect to wait a little before their sim card arrives. Last time Jeenee put a deal up they got inundated with people signing up(most from ozbargain) leading to a large backlog. I was with them for a little less than a year and their service was for me was without faults.

  • CyberMurning on 17/06/2016 - 09:10

    Looks good the only problem is jeenee charges excess data in mb not $10 for 1gb block. .

    • indium on 17/06/2016 - 09:58
      +1

      I looked into this, see here

      • CyberMurning on 17/06/2016 - 11:15

        Hmm ok need some confirmation from people that the barring actually works.
        If so, we can decide if we want to pay 10 bucks or not. Not too bad.

        • [Deactivated] on 17/06/2016 - 12:03
          +2

          It works but it's not done in real time so you can go over(there's a delay between reaching the data limit and further data being barred).

          You need to use the data usage limiter on your phone.

  • customundo on 18/06/2016 - 20:44

    I just realized the monthly cycle is the 9th of every month regardless of when your card gets delivered or activated.
    so someone who activates their SIM on the 8th will pay one months fee and then on the 9th pay another month's fee - is this correct?

  • venusia94 on 20/06/2016 - 02:13

    Just a warning about Jeenee…

    If you run out of mobile data, you have to call them to add more… And their call centre isn't open on weekends! Ie run out of data on a weekend, you're stuffed!

    This got me into a world of trouble when I was driving somewhere where I wasn't familiar with the roads. I've moved to Telstra now (who automatically add on 1gb if you go over) and couldn't be happier.

    • zzyss on 20/06/2016 - 09:09

      Horses for courses. I'm absolutely delighted with Jeenee's "no bill shock" arrangement, and I've just come from Telstra with the auto rollover - the exact opposite to you.

      For me, what I hated most was when I'd be nearing the end of the billing cycle by 1-2 days and I'd be close to my data limit. Because the usage meter isn't accurate for anything up to 48 hours, I'd be slugged $10 for 1Gb that I only use a few kb of if I forget to check and turn off my data a few days prior.

      For the record, you can arrange with Jeenee to have excess data charged at 4c/MB and not be capped (and you can still apply the $10 data pack by calling up).

  • zencroww on 20/06/2016 - 21:05

    Thank you OP, just ordered Offer 3.

    Switching from Spintel. Spintel was great, loved their cheap auto bump but these Jeenee Plans are just better value for me.

    I stayed well cleared away from Vaya after looking at the reviews.

    Also feels good to know my service is making a difference for others as well with Jeenee.

  • knowwhat on 20/06/2016 - 21:23

    Are there any plans which include international calls as well?
    Cheers

  • umoddbro on 21/06/2016 - 15:55

    I know I'm probably being impatient but anyone how know how long it takes to port a number from Optus? on the site it says 72 hours, is it faster than that?

    • indium on 21/06/2016 - 17:08

      It took roughly 5 hours during the day. However I had used their website to request the port on a Sunday and for whatever reason it was never put through until I called on Tuesday morning and a staff member put it through so if you used the website to do it then I'd probably give them a call. I've found their staff are friendly and helpful from the few times I've had to call.

      • umoddbro on 21/06/2016 - 23:18

        Thanks for that, I did use the online activation.. If it doesn't go through by tomorrow I'll give them a call.

        • treeman on 27/06/2016 - 10:21

          Took about 10 business hours for me. That was Porting on a Friday at 4pm and then it being finalised sometime in the afternoon on Monday.
          Could still use my old sim in the interim though.

  • d86 on 09/07/2016 - 23:24

    Hi, when does this deal end? I am on a 30 days' notice with Spintel, and I don't want to port out now as I have to pay for the next billing cycle anyway. Would it be possible to subscribe now and port out at a later date ? Thanks

    • zzyss on 11/07/2016 - 09:21

      I suppose if you don't mind paying extra, you could just order the SIM and not activate it until the end of your plan? But would you get a pro-rata refund on your Spintel plan if you ported out early?

      No idea when the offer ends - might be worth calling Jeenee to find out. Could be end of the month, could be end of the week. Who knows.

      • boomersgold on 18/07/2016 - 13:12

        How would you be paying extra?

        • zzyss on 18/07/2016 - 15:25
          +1

          There would be some overlap between Jeenee and their old plan, because the Jeenee billing period starts as soon as they mail it out, not after you activate it.

          Maybe "paying extra" isn't the best way of putting it, but it's paying more than you absolutely had to if there was any confidence the deal would still be running until d86's current plan month runs out.

        • boomersgold on 18/07/2016 - 20:21

          @zzyss:

          Thanks for the explanation!

  • Forgot69 on 14/07/2016 - 12:53

    Is "Offer 3" available to existing customers or do they need to choose either "Offer 1" or "Offer 2"?

    • zzyss on 14/07/2016 - 16:00

      They've been pretty good about switching customers onto better value plans, so just give them a call and ask.

  • Tuttorix on 14/07/2016 - 19:19

    Order Page just glitched out on me when I went to go checkout, and when I went to go checkout, it forced a "Null Order" page, and so I ended up paying for this TWICE. And I got 2 separate payment orders for the EXACT same thing.
