Kogan Mobile - Port out then in for $5 deal - RIP?

However many times now I've ported out for a month, then back onto the recurrent kogan $2/5 sim & data deals.

Now, even though a month with Lebara is up, I can't - the voucher code doesn't work. I tried before the month was up, realised I was early and came back a few days later and I still can't.

Have they changed their policy?
Have I been blacklisted!?

    i just spoke to Ruslan.

    yes, you have been blacklisted.

    • yes, you have been blacklisted.

      Maybe on kogan.com.au, but koganmobile.com.au is owned an operated by Vodafone Hutchinson Australia.

    • Damn, they're onto me!

    I think I hit a similar issue a few days ago. The rep on the phone said you need to wait 30 days, before you can use another sign up promo deal.

    Lebara sims are only valid for 28days, so you need to start doing lebara —> vodafone —> kogan.

    Have I been blacklisted!?

    Unlikely - no point alienating tens of thousands of monthly number porting customers, in such a compeditive environment.

    • This. Stay away from Kogan from 35 days if you can. The error codes on the vouchers don't make sense, if you call them they can manually activate it.

  • just use a new number every time. you can sign up like 4 or 5 new numbers with 1 credit card apparently last time i checked.

  • It was a joke re blacklisting (eyeroll emoji), I could activate with new number, but couldn't port.

    Have they changed their port policy maybe?
