    Does new customer mean a new service even if I have had a service with them in the past?

    • whodidthat on 30/06/2018 - 09:57

      I wondered that as well.

      • whodidthat on 30/06/2018 - 14:11

      I've ported out my number from amaysim then ported back in 24 hours later and still treated as a new customer.

      That's pretty iffy but if you genuinely don't have an active service with amaysim now I can't see why they would deny you a new service. A customer is a customer, $8.49 revenue is better than $0 revenue!

      • unity1 on 30/06/2018 - 10:16

        OK, sounds promising. With the Telstra deals new customer usually means new service. It's only a few dollars so not much to lose.

      • Partake0486 on 30/06/2018 - 10:29

        Good to know. I ported from amaysim to Belong on Tue and was wondering if I'd be treated as a new customer too.

      • funtooskool on 04/07/2018 - 21:54

        hey,
        would you mind sharing which provider did you ported in and out ?

          It was a while ago but I think it might've been Kogan.

          The important thing — if you want the port out/in to be quick — is to port to a non-Optus telco/MVNO. i.e. Telstra, Vodafone, or one of their MVNOs. Optus to Optus ports can take days.

        • funtooskool on 05/07/2018 - 08:21

    • [Deactivated] on 30/06/2018 - 10:21

      Usually means new service with other providers. For example, many of us have used the Kogan deals many times.

    Once this deal finishes if it is only as a spare then as you go is cheaper (as in free unless you call). If you attach the phone to an existing account then you can leave it inactive for years.

        This is ozbargain. Not TA's a pretty good bloke, cashrewards is now the official cashback partner. You need to cater to your audience and what are we here for again? It's what they do with this feedback that will set them apart. I have been a longtime CR supporter, because there wasn't much else. It's just when you become complacent and you can make as many excuses as you want justifying whatever, but you have to look a little bit deeper and look at what you're really trying to do here. Talking with actions and not words.

          I think shopback have already proven themselves being a solid competitor in the cashback scene. They came in solid and ready for competition. They had the app already developed and tested. I do feel they are more organised and knew what they were up for before they entered the Australian market.

          I wouldnt be surprised if shopback is backed by google, amazon or one of the bigger internet players

          TA is a top bloke, no doubt but in his position at CR, he has targets and KPI's to meet. At the end of the day it's business as usual

        If you can also get shopback then a list should be provided and not just cashrewards. If cashrewards is the only one then its part of stacking deals and a win for everyone.

        How to get $3 cashrewards amaysim cashback with this offer?

      • prxy on 30/06/2018 - 15:50

        Are you sure Cashrewards will honour the $3.00 Cashrewards Amaysim Mobile cashback if you use a Groupon coupon code when making your purchase?

        Usually codes not listed on the Cashrewards website void cashbacks.

        You might want to double check with TA.

          Hi prxy. At the end of the day amaysim decides, but from the terms I'd suggest no (this from amaysim merchant page on Cashrewards)…

          Cashback is not payable when using coupon code/s not listed on Cashrewards

          and, Purchases not eligible for cashback (see 3rd one down):

          amaysim refer-a-friend (RAF) sales.
          amaysim broadband services (please visit amaysim Broadband page).
          Exclusive amaysim partner promos and/or various special promos outlined from time to time.

        • easternculture on 30/06/2018 - 16:51

          @ prxy

          I beg to differ

          Last time round with groupon amaysim offer, i got $15 amaysim CB approved and paid

          I would recommend you still try and it might go through

        • prxy on 30/06/2018 - 17:05

          @easternculture:

          I guess it doesn't hurt to try but as TA has written Cashrewards could refuse as per amaysim merchant page on Cashrewards.

          With this deal when we purchase the amaysim service we are actually using a unique Groupon/Amaysim code that isn't listed on the Cashrewards website.

          Prior to your post I wouldn't have held out much hope BUT fingers crossed :-)

        • easternculture on 30/06/2018 - 17:07

    Does anyone know if this deal auto-renews every 28 days, or do you have to manually apply a renewal every 28 days?
    And if it is the latter, can you "renew" sooner than 28 days for a new 1GB data?

    • malienno on 30/06/2018 - 12:13
      +3

      It will automatically renew. But I found this auto-renew thingy very dodgy because they actually renew on the 28th day. So we lose one day every renewal.

    • alvian on 30/06/2018 - 12:36
      +7

      Because amaysim's SIM arrives activated if you choose a new number during redemption, and so you lose 2-7 days usage (delivery time) plus however long you delay the activation. amaysim's SIM does not arrive activated if you choose to port a number during redemption, and so you get the full benefit of the plan even if you redeem today but activate on 31 July.

      • c0balt on 30/06/2018 - 13:08
        +1

        Thanks. That makes a lot of sense. Well I wasted that usage then by getting the free Amaysim-sim, and I also would have preferred to activate it later :(

        • alvian on 30/06/2018 - 16:04
          +1

          I don't know, you'll have to ask amaysim. When you redeem the Groupon voucher and select number porting, you have to nominate an existing mobile number and then amaysim records that mobile number with the SIM card number that it'll send. Your existing mobile number is printed on amaysim's welcome letter and you don't get a chance to change to another mobile number in the final activation IIRC. I don't recall anyone have discussed changing their minds about porting versus new number.

    • PR0r on 30/06/2018 - 12:58

      I'm already an amaysim customer. If I leave then I'd no longer be a customer and can port my number back for this deal.

      The UNLIMITED 1GB and UNLIMITED 2.5GB plans will not be switched to the casual data rate if you run out of data. In these instances you'll need to wait until your plan has renewed, or add a data top-up in order to continue using data.

  • prxy on 30/06/2018 - 12:48

    As 0180 mentioned can we stop auto data top up on this plan and also can we change payment method to not auto-renew?

    I think in the past you had an option of changing payment method to vouchers/coupons or something is that still the case?

    • alvian on 30/06/2018 - 12:51
      +2

      https://www.amaysim.com.au/help/mobile/plans-and-network/wha…

      Each time a plan is added (or re-added) to an account, auto-renew is switched ON by default. This means you'll need to manually switch auto-renew off once a new renewal period has started if you do not want to renew your plan. This can be done at any point through the amaysim app or My amaysim.

      • prxy on 30/06/2018 - 13:11

        If you switch off Auto-Renew will this also stop the "Auto-Renewal" of the six included months we have paid for with this groupon coupon?

        Would changing the payment method to BPay like jackofspade has suggested below be a safer way to stop auto payments after the six months are up?

        • alvian on 30/06/2018 - 13:21
          +1

          It didn't stop the renewal of the three included months during the last amaysim+groupon deal. If you are worried then simply set a calendar alert for the last renewal period or change to BPay as suggested below.

    • jackofspade on 30/06/2018 - 12:54

    Is there a Shopping Cart in Groupon? I just signed up, clicked on 2 of the amaysim card packages, hit purchase then it redirected to paypal. I clicked back by accident and now it won't let me purchase them. When I go into help, it lists the item as Payment Unsuccessful, but has no way (that I can see) to actually change payment menthod or details.

Contacted live support, they say its because groupon is listed as an international company and my credit card has blocked payments to them. Said to try again in 6 hours. I asked what if the deal expires before then, and they basically said 'tough shit'
