new customers only, you can just keep making accounts i guess
Comes with free sim card as well

UPDATE: no need to port number, tried and works fine

Edit 25/10: Available again (thanks pennypincher98), expires at midnight.

Technically anyone can be a 'new' customer - worked on the same email that got the birthday deal.
Note: This actually expires 1 day sooner than the birthday deal despite being several days later
Voucher expires at 3:00AM AEDT on 20/11/2017

Update (26/10): Available for 2 more hours (thanks VKV)

          @Laura11: You're most welcome - we all need to look out for each other in these difficult times.

          The only thing I ask in return is that in keeping with the spirit of sharing espoused by the OzBargain community, you too take the time to answer the questions of another wavering, uncertain member, caught at the crossroads of decision, uncertain of of which direction to go. Use kind words and sound advice to gently steer them along the path of Frugal Enlightenment, and eventually guide them to 'The Bargain', so that Massive Savings Can Be Made.

          Either that…or I'd accept a coupon code for a free Dominos pizza, and some Eneloops! :D

    Just a word of caution to all my excited ozbargain mates. I purchased a 12 month voucher 3 months ago and ported successfuly in an hour or so. It all seemed fine until I noticed that the I was getting dosconnected from the network between 5sec and forever (restart required to recconect) almost every time I was driving and the phone needed to connect to a different base tower. Kogan was extremely helpfull when I called them. They helped me activate service on a new sim card, unfortunatelly that didn't sovle the problem. I live and work in Sydney and frequent in well populated areas. I was with TPG for 3-4 years before Kogan and never had this issue - they both use Vodafone.

    • WatchNerd on 19/10/2017 - 22:32

      Sounds like to me that you have very specific technical issue with your phone and settings as many phones can have sometimes with all telcos, especially when going from one to another. Don't think this is an issue with Kogan/Vodafone uniquely.

    • PlasticSpaceman on 20/10/2017 - 08:37
      +1

      Might be something to do with roaming but if you can, try a different mobile and see if reception improves - that way it can rule out a hardware or software settings problem on your side. Last resort would be to backup your mobile, then do a factory reset on it. Then test to see if it improves. If it does, then restore your data. Have a Kogan sim in an iPhone 5s and it works without an issue…..

It was an eBay storewide coupon code and what made that post even more humourous was not only was it that OP's first post as well, but he disabled his account, so it gave off the impression that he made an account, posted an awesome deal, and pretty much ran away.

    WARNING!!!

    You MUST own a Visa or MasterCard with at last $1 in the account, to use this offer.

    You CANNOT Activate a new number, or port an existing number, unless you have a valid credit card with $1 in it.

    The $1 will be removed but will then be reinstated 7x days later.

    This last step happens during the SIM registration process & requires a valid credit card with at least $1 and cannot be bypassed.

    Everything will fail unless and until this happens.

    You also need a driver's licence or Medicare card or Australian passport, for ID, too.

    Make sure you turn off 'Auto-Renew' otherwise you will get charged $49.

    BE CAREFUL!!!

      • itcrowd on 20/10/2017 - 13:16

        Correct.

        Must be a visa or mastercard number.

        Cannot be AMEX nor Diners Club card.

        • bakedbeans on 25/10/2017 - 22:52

          I used my AMEX and it seems to have accept it?

          It didn't say no AMEX on the payment section and when input the number, it correctly pops up saying it's an AMEX card.

      • illumination on 20/10/2017 - 13:55

          well I think the real important issue is answering the following question,

          Do you have four (4) or more active Pre-Paid services and activation this will make that total five (5) or more active Pre-Paid services?

          Yes, must jump through that right hoop to get positive result.

          Like itcrowd said though, make sure you "UN-Tick Auto-Renew" unless your happy paying $49 for the next 30

          day XL for that sim.

      You can actually use these in a Pocket wifi, preferably the latest Vodafone huawei R216H 4G with the Vodafone B5 850mHz band or any Vodafone or unlocked pocket wifi or USB modem. If your using an unlocked non Vodafone device, you might need to change some settings, but worked straight up for me in the R216H ( on sale now for $39 with 7.5 GB data delivered from Vodafone ).

      Well worth it for the data streaming alone if getting a couple of sims with 16GB each as well as similar deals in future.

      Other option is to buy a cheap 3G/4G smartphone and just use that as hotspot. Pays for itself after a couple of months.

          To be honest, I don't know. But Vodafone seems to lock most of their prepaid hardware these days as myself and others have found out. Have not tried myself though, as I lately have multiple 4G wifi modems from all 3 telcos as my reception is weak here and I switch to whoever has best signal.

          The Optus E5573 is a nice quick ( was unlocked out of the box for me ) modem, but without changing the network settings would only work for Optus and Telstra for me, not Vodafone.

      So for others that are looking at using these, obviously there may have been others who don't have Ozbargain accounts who used these.. or those with accounts that didn't post (bastards).

      Here are my findings:
      Taken = taken according to other ozbargainers comments
      Invalid = tried and didn't work i.e. probably taken by someone who didn't leave a comment.
      The ones with no comments next to them I didn't test.

      8216417330 - taken
      8640274920 - invalid

    Still haven't received my sim card. I placed my order on 19/10/17. It takes so long..

      Same! I'm wondering if mine has been lost in the post. Ordered on the 19th October, got a dispatch notice on 23 October with a note that it can take 2-5 business days to arrive (so one week). It's now been 1 week and 2 days since that dispatch notice, and nearly 2 weeks since ordering, and still nothing… Is there some easy way to get SIMs resent, or do we need to contact support to chase it up?

        If you paid you should either get the SIM or your money back.
        If it was free then maybe too bad, as I don't think they are obliged.
        It's too long so I would phone them and quote the voucher.
        Some ppl got a pile of SIMs, so you can plead with them, maybe they don't need them.

          It finally arrived in the post today, yay! Longer than expected, but hey, it's free, and I presume they were pretty overloaded with orders.
