Guys

Looks like Woolworths mobile fixed their system issues and it's now our task to test it.

Same as previous deal. Just that there is a limit of 1 pack per customer instead of 2.

update 9/6: seems Woolworths Rewards card now required in-store with limit of one per account

Update 11:25am: snappy1234 has reported the $1 sim card being available in store also. Check with your local store.

EDIT:
I have cancelled all the 4 orders($12) I placed early this morning via online chat.

Can confirm that it is $1 in store as well (Town Hall, Sydney).
Expiry date on the pack is 01/08/2017.

Limit of 5 per customer.

Proof: https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/137114/40038/img-20160…

I managed to get 9 (went twice and luckily, the guy who served me initially was not there in the counter)

Referral Links

Referral: random (384)

The referrer and referee will both receive a $10 WISH eGift Card. Referral codes can only be shared after 35 days of service and gift cards sent only after staying for at least 3 active months. Maximum of 10 referrals per year. Once referred customer activates on Woolworths Mobile, they must download the Woolworths Mobile App, and enter the eligible referral code within 30 days by selecting “Refer a friend” from the slide out menu.

        Sorry, I thought it was about scalping these $1 SIMs for $16.

        • whypaymo on 08/06/2016 - 15:40

          all good

      • illumination on 08/06/2016 - 15:36

        Haha we hate you for letting us know!

        • whypaymo on 08/06/2016 - 15:42

          somethings are best left unshared

        • illumination on 08/06/2016 - 15:48

          @whypaymo: I'm kidding… well I didn't neg you so I'm just speculating. Personally I love you for letting us know.
          Classic case of "don't shoot the messenger" lol

        • Sick of This on 08/06/2016 - 16:03

          My own personal rule is always shoot the messenger, then ask questions later. It's served me well. Got me this nice cosy prison cell and everything.

          Edit: I'm kidding.

          Edit: …or am I?

    Well, end up cancelling my 2 sims online as I got 5 sims from local Woolies. Now just need to wait for my $6 to come back to my CC, lol.

  • groundzer on 08/06/2016 - 15:00

    got 4 in carnegie store:) great for parents come from overseas

    • superm86 on 08/06/2016 - 16:15

      any left?

  • pyramid on 08/06/2016 - 15:01

    CAncelled online order of 1 sim and bought 10 from Mornington…$10 for a 10 months…life is good….

  • buddysayshi on 08/06/2016 - 15:26

    Bourke Street & Southern Cross both sold out. Just checked few mins ago. Looks like some staff are keeping it for themselves. When I inquired with Southern Cross Woolies, the girl started laughing and told me they sold out. But looked like she kept few for herself.

    • pyramid on 08/06/2016 - 16:05

      Yes, when i asked for more than one gal at counter said sold out but i could see few more in their drawers….

      • buddysayshi on 08/06/2016 - 16:10

        Did you went to Southern Cross or Bourke Street?

        • pyramid on 08/06/2016 - 16:17

          Both….Bourke were already sold out…Southern cross - i got one but could see few more in their drawer…..

        • buddysayshi on 08/06/2016 - 16:19

          @pyramid: I can't understand why are they doing like that. So, the girl lied to me that they are already sold out.

      • illumination on 08/06/2016 - 16:19

        Well apparently you got 10, which is technically double the limit of 5. So if they told you that to try and get you to bugger off I wouldn't really blame them.

        • pyramid on 08/06/2016 - 16:28

          Its two different stores…the one where they were sold out was southern cross and one where i bought 10 was from Mornington….probably 70-80km apart….

        • buddysayshi on 08/06/2016 - 16:40

          @pyramid: Mate, you already got 10 and still hunting for more :)

          @pyramid: Well said buddy. They are never enough, after all we should follow OzBargained way..LOL

  • pea on 08/06/2016 - 15:33

    Got 5 at my local. Remember to look carefully, my local stuck a bunch (with blue tack) on display, inside near the customer service counter.

  • edrift on 08/06/2016 - 15:53

    did anyone get an email confirmation of their order? I didn't seem to get one (checked spam folders too)

    • superm86 on 08/06/2016 - 16:16

      I did get them - ordered in morning.

    • uppitt on 10/06/2016 - 12:22

      I never got one either.

  • BargainKen on 08/06/2016 - 15:56

    Sold out online

  • yessum on 08/06/2016 - 15:56

    The manager at my local store told me that once purchased, the credit starts right away and so there's no point in buying more than one. Said the expiry date doesn't matter, even if I don't activate it right away the credit will already start. Did anyone else hear this?

    • jayzee on 08/06/2016 - 16:01
      +9

      Totally BS. There is no way for Woolies to know which sim card sold on which date, all have the same barcode.

      • edw0000000 on 08/06/2016 - 18:48

        agree with u , I bought five and the stuff keep scan the first sim five times.

    • ausbob71 on 08/06/2016 - 16:02

      That sounds like bs don't see how you would be using credit if it hadn't been activated.

      • yessum on 08/06/2016 - 16:04

        Yeah, that's what I said, but she was adamant that the expiry date referred to how long they could sell it, and at most I had two months to use the sims, not sure where she was getting this from…But it did take me by surprise

    whole heap left at leichhardt 2040. Ask behind the counter.

  • Phlume on 08/06/2016 - 16:31

    Got a few at my local Woolworths. The staff didn't seem to know it was on sale though.

  • Duece1995 on 08/06/2016 - 16:31

    Bought 5 plenty at Oakleigh store.

  • arctan on 08/06/2016 - 16:38

    What network does Woolworths prepaid use? Telstra or Vodafone?

  • angelkulit025 on 08/06/2016 - 16:39

    Got 6 at newmarket woolies vic :)

  • Rggmcl on 08/06/2016 - 16:42

    Just purchased 6; 3 for self and 3 for my partener. Staff at Woolworth purchased the last 4 they had as mine was being put thru. Staff said they all have the same barcode; scanned 1 and put on X 6. Do not understand how that Manager can stay they are activated when sold - absolute nonsense.

    Went to my local which didn't have any in stock and the girl offered me a rain check so I ended up getting a rain check for 10😀

  • aussie216618 on 08/06/2016 - 16:51

    went to woolworths @ glen Waverley and wheelers hill, both sold out.

    • Duece1995 on 08/06/2016 - 16:57

      Try Oakleigh

      • icecream on 08/06/2016 - 17:29

        Sold out in Oakleigh, I bought five, 3 left, then another guy bought them all.

        I'm unsure if they'll restock.

  • thaihoangaus on 08/06/2016 - 16:51

    Went to woolies cabramatta, the girl said inly one per customer, read the website again and confirm she is right, damn

    • angelkulit025 on 08/06/2016 - 17:02

      Lol..you shouldve gone to the self service counter..by the way, got another 4 from moonee ponds woolies.

      • shapers on 08/06/2016 - 17:04

        My local only had them at the service desk so you had to buy them there ~ lucky for me the lady said there was a limit of 6 :)

      • thaihoangaus on 08/06/2016 - 17:15

        Well i dont see any for self service, all of then either in the drawer or behind the counter, but put some more effort and go to other store, they gave me another 5. Look like the gentleman had no idea about this promotion, he looked pretty surprise after scanning as well

    • maples on 08/06/2016 - 17:20

      Oh, well I just bought 10 at my local Woollies!

      • thaihoangaus on 08/06/2016 - 19:35

        Give it a go at other one, maybe?

    • bargainfinder on 08/06/2016 - 19:34

      Same here. My local store only gave me one

  • maples on 08/06/2016 - 17:21

    This does work on the Vodafone Pocket Wifi, I am posting this comment with my new Woollies connection.

    • RichardL on 09/06/2016 - 00:22

      I've got an old Vodafone Pocket Wifi, but it's locked to the Vodafone network. Is your's unlocked?

      • SnoozeAndLose on 09/06/2016 - 06:08

        Vodafone Pocket Wifi should not be locked, may you are just dont know how to set API on the device? google your model with how to set API and search Woolworths Moblie API.

        • theophilusthistler on 08/06/2016 - 22:13

          Or reffer your new phone#/email from your normal Uber account attached to your normal phone#, and get the referral credit plus new sign up credit. $10 credit to use on your normal account + $10 credit to use on your new account.

          You'd probably get blocked if you kept doing it, so maybe don't, up to you.

        • shapers on 09/06/2016 - 12:04

  • mjjeje on 08/06/2016 - 19:46

    Got 4 from woolies south fremantle. Not sure about stock since she took it from the drawer. But she was shocked when it scanned as $1 and asked around whether it's correct. In the end the manager told her it is the correct price. Doesn't seem to have a limit since the guy behind me bought 10 after hearing its $1.

    • mjjeje on 08/06/2016 - 19:47

    I bought 4 and Woolworth staff only scanned the first one 4 times. I was wondering how credit was added to each sim? With Amaysim or Vodafone, they have to be scanned individually to add credit.

    • Limitless on 08/06/2016 - 21:50

      They are not like gift cards they have the credit already loaded. That is why they don't keep them on the shelves.

  • Jared17 on 08/06/2016 - 21:07

      You may have issues porting from telstra to basically telstra but i could be wrong

      • Jared17 on 08/06/2016 - 23:09

        When you say issues you mean longer porting time or not possible at all?

        • Limitless on 08/06/2016 - 23:18

          I personally wouldn't risk it but from this comment it looks like it is okay to do. I have never been brave enough to try
