CYBER

Same as the previous deal. This is a new offer, so you will still be eligible for cashback even if you took advantage of the previous deal.

  • No catches, cancel anytime.
  • New OVO customers only. For the avoidance of doubt, adding a new service to an existing account is fine.
  • Limit of 3 new services per customer.
  • Enter coupon CYBER at the checkout.

To ensure you receive the cashback:

  • click Shop Now from this link and complete your purchase without leaving the OVO website.

  • Service must be activated by Monday, 31st December 2018.

  • Limited to one SIM per Cashrewards acct.

OVO uses the Optus network.

Once you have activated the SIM, you can immediately disable auto-recharge to avoid being charged in future.

How to disable auto-recharge

  1. Active the SIM card.

  2. Dashboard > Check It Out > What Would You Like To Do? > Manage My Service > untick Auto recharge > Update > Finished

    Not sure what it is I'm meant to be buying. 10GB shows as $29 .. to get coupon to work I need to click all they way through and give them my details.

    Stores that need my info just to see if a coupon is valid or the calculate the cost of shipping don't often get my business.

When I wanted to signup this time getting message "The email address is already used. If this is your email address you should first sign in". Seems I have no luck with OVO and I don't want use another email address.

    • chriise on 26/11/2018 - 00:00

      I've never used OVO at all. During the sign up today I didn't put in a contact number - received error for not completing all fields… but at that moment i received a confirmation email. I put in a contact number and tried to hit 'next' again and now receive 'The email address is already used'. If I try to login with the email address it doesn't recognise me. Website is broken..

      You need to actually activate the SIM to get the cashback. And once you activate, you need to deactivate auto-recharge (I assume they've already got your details from the SIM purchase.) A certain percentage will forget to do so.

        Thank you that proves my point, nowhere near the express tick box does it say $7.
        if you had scrolled down the top of your image is off the screen.

        • bargainparker on 26/11/2018 - 13:43

          Hmm, no, it doesn't. You can clearly see the price displayed. Now if you had a screenshot which showed Total: $0.99, yet you were charged $7.99, that would be a different story.

          • Ryk on 26/11/2018 - 13:54

            @bargainparker: I'm not saying it said Total: $0.99, yet charged $7.99

            I am saying $7 is not mentioned anywhere near the tick box for express post.
            https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/65945/64289/capture.pn…

            It's just a UI issue I missed. not the end of the world, but I dont like being taken like this. it starts the relationship poorly. Though to be honest, it was only ever going to be a 30 day account and it will remain so. $7.99 is still a good price and i'll have the sim tomorrow, presumably.

            • bargainparker on 26/11/2018 - 14:12

              @Ryk: Ok, you are the one of all who says "It's just a UI issue I missed. not the end of the world, but I dont like being taken like this. it starts the relationship poorly."

              There is a box which says "Yes, please send this Express Post". If you don't click on it, the amount doesn't change, but if you do then 'Free delivery anywhere in Australia' changes to Express Post $7.00 and comes to Total $7.99. I've done it and no problem at all. You just have to pay attention to what you do.

              People can be sure they have done something and/or seen something and believe so when actually they haven't and I think this is the case. That or there was a glitch. I lean to the former as you can see no one else complained about it.

              That's why I usually take a final screenshot, so if a problem does arise I can show it.

              • illumination on 29/11/2018 - 02:48

                @bargainparker: Just chiming in…

                I think gikku is overreacting a little, but he's not factually wrong. It really doesn't say $7 anywhere near the Express checkbox as he points out, but I would argue that it's common sense to then check the final price to see what you are actually being charged after selecting a delivery option which is typically not free.

                To then go on and say "it starts the relationship poorly" definitely sounds like an overreaction. At the end of the day, I think the responsibility here could lie with both parties, but very much more so with gikku. gikku should've checked the total price after ticking express post, but I also agree that it'd be an improvement to include the $7 charge somewhere near the checkbox. As you've pointed out (bargainparker), had the total said $0.99 and gikku was charged $7.99 - completely different story and you and I would be 100% supportive of his complaint.

                I lean to the former as you can see no one else complained about it.

                Other people not complaining about it however, doesn't mean it's not an issue. Others that experienced the issue but did not comment here could either be:

                • Too lazy to report it
                • Non-members (i.e. not able to comment)
                • Ones that ticked it, noticed the increase in price, and then unticked it - but I argue here they "gave it a shot" to see if express post was free but quickly noticed it wasn't. It's the last part that gikku missed - but imo it's common sense to check.

                edit: Turns out there was someone else who experienced the same issue

                • bargainparker on 29/11/2018 - 16:04

                  @illumination: True, they could have; [] $7 Express Post, but I don't see that happening any time soon. Usually a company will change something only when enough people complain.

                  It pays to pay attention a little bit and for whatever reason gikku didn't.
