In addition to the yearly plans, Boost have also increased the data allowance for all its 28 day plans.
Here are the new plans, which all come with unlimited talk and text on a 28 day recharge:
$10 for 3GB (up from 1.5GB)7 day recharge
$20 for 5GB (up from 3GB)
$30 for 20GB (up from 12GB)
$40 for 30GB (up from 22GB)
$50 for 40GB (up from 32GB)
$70 for 65GB (up from 52GB)Boost has also extended data rollover to cover 28-day expiry plans costing $20 or more, where it was previously only available on plans costing $30 or more. However, unused data rolls over for use only within the next recharge.
Boost is also offering a bonus of 15GB of data on the first five recharges for new customers, if they activate by May 13 and recharge with $30 or more. Customers must make remaining recharges by September 2 to get the subsequent bonuses.

You've inspired me to change the title to "Boosted data…". Thank you!
So the $150 for 80gb valid for 12 months is the much better deal for those who can afford to prepaid it.
I disagree.
You can get the $30 plan for 5 months, pay $150 and get 100gb.
These long term plans make no sense
The $10 plan with 3GB Data sounds great BUT its ONLY for 7 days
EDIT
Beaten by the above,gotta learn to type faster😀- +3 votes
Boost are good! I would recommend to them to anyone after Sim only deal.

Also, set auto recharge to give full months, not just 28 days.
- +2 votes
If you set auto recharge, you just pay once a month (not every 28 days) Data also rolls over, mine just auto recharged today as i have set 26th as my recharge date. I have 20gb + 35gb rollover data. (Must be my fifth month on deal do back to 20gb)
Wow that's a great tip! That pretty much means you only need to recharge 12 times a year instead of 13! Champion!!
It would be nice if they follow belong's plus $5 for international call and text. I'd port immediately.

Boost has now also extended international call inclusions to all plans, including its long expiry deals. Plans now come with unlimited talk and text to between 20-30 selected destinations. All plans also come with an additional limited allowance of international talk and text to 25-35 extra destinations.

They don't appear to include Switzerland though, so I can't do phone banking.

That doesn't matter.
I call my banker, hang up and he calls me back.
Which country? On the $40 plan, you get free calls to around 55 countries (some unlimited, some 200 minutes).
$30 plans has few countries less, but still a lot.
Better than Kogan 365days and other yearly plans. I'll consider switching.
Edit: nope Kogan is still better
Wait a bit, Kogan should announce the new plans soon. Price war has begun.

I'd support Kogan on their 30 day terms alone, not this 28 day bullcrap.

Since Boost uses Telstra networks, I reckon this deal is outright better than Kogan which uses Vodafone. And yes, Boost does allow you to have an access to full Telstra coverage.
If I wanted to port to a JB or Telstra post paid plan later, will it be considered a port in from another carrier?
They've said to me it's possible with Belong but definitely not Boost. I had to get a new Optus SIM to take advantage of their port deals.

kogan is still miles better, currently paying $23/month for 40gb, boost is not a bargain lol
- +2 votes
Yeah but it uses Vodafone - ewww!
I was just near Warburton, Vic last weekend - hardly rural, and the people on Optus and Voda had nothing - Telstra - full coverage.
See ? that's miles better… hands off your phone & spend more time with family ~~ LoL
Haha, I'm with you there….it was more coordinating others arrival - they couldn't message once in the vicinity as no reception. I also used my phone to play Spotify, as other people couldn't.
We had a wonderful time around the fire chatting though!!
I'm never shopping kogan again since they stuffed up their mobile contracts last time and forced everyone to port elsewhere leaving us with no service and minimal guidance
Ok so if i already am on their $30 28 days prepaid, next time I recharge can I just change it to the new deals? or will it be automatic?
Or do i need a new sim card to take advantage of this?
(sorry i realise this is probably a stupid question but i havent used pre-paid in years)

You can see the new deals in the recharge menu already, the old versions aren't there anymore.
Boost is also offering a bonus of 15GB of data on the first five recharges for new customers, if they activate by May 13 and recharge with $30 or more.
Does this mean that for the $150 and $300 12 month plans we get 15GB extra?

I pay the bill so I wouldn't mind lowering it. It also helps that Vaya has some of the worst customer service I ever experienced and I don't want to keep giving them money.
Anyone ported from Belong Mobile to Boost Mobile? Looking to port out of Belong since their site is always so slow… and can't seem to send MMS messages.

Great, I will tell both my parents and parents in law to port out of Aldi to Boost. Both of them are on Telstra networks, but Boost uses the full coverage of Telstra when Aldi doesn't.
Still happy with my Amaysim $10 a month unlimited calls/texts, 1GB data… sooo cheap :) https://www.amaysim.com.au/plans/mobile-plans/unlimited-xsma...
Once and for all, is Boost network performance identical to Telstra?
I did some googling and the answer seems to be no .. there is no 4GX (although you can still access the 700 band).
+3 votesI can't say it with any certainty, but having been on Boost and Telstra, and playing around with Speedtest app, the max speed I got with Telstra was >200Mbps whereas I never got above ~100Mbps with Boost. But it could be just a random thing.
In fact, Boost is unique among MVNOs in that it’s the only one to use the full Telstra network. Others use only parts of it and may not offer the same level of coverage, especially in rural regions. However, where Boost differs is that it does not use Telstra’s full ‘4GX’ speed capacity, and has a speed cap on the 4G network – 100Mbps. You still get the same coverage, though, so let’s see how the two compare when it compares down to their phone plans. Source.

I just did a speedtest with Boost and got 150mb download speed
If I get $150/80GB or $300/240GB 12-month plans and then find that I'm running low on data, can I recharge one of these plans without losing the 12-month expiry of the first recharge?
Ordered Boost SIM yesterday and it just arrived this morning - very impressive - and I am not in a capital city!
same here, i ordered yesterday afternoon and received it this morning (startrack), very impressive indeed!!!
I guess they are like Telstra in that you need to sign for the package?
Just signed up 2 weeks ago. Is this upgrade for exisiting customers as well?

Did anybody notice that Telstra has also updated their prepaid plans?
$40 dollars top up now expires after 35 days
$50 dollars top up expires after 42 days
$30 top up gives you now 10GB (+ bonuses) (28 days expiry though)
$40 top up gives you 20GB (+ bonuses)Just checked it out and they have indeed made some changes. And they seem to have removed the Day2Day plans.
Been w/Boost yonks.
3gb the month, 2gb weekends, 30days— not 28.

I never use the allotment.
