      they want you to go to the Optus for a year 1st

      had a chat with Boost " Thanks for bringing this up. For this request, you can only purchase the sim kit offer online and requested to transfer the credits to your existing number as well. All you need to do is to purchase the $150 plan online and the $2 sim kit so we will be able to transfer your old number to the $2 sim kit and once done, we will transfer the $150 plan with the extra 40Gb bonuses as well."

      • oracle365 on 25/02/2020 - 01:22

        meaning transfer from old boost sim to new boost sim for existing customer? get them to manually add 40gb in?

    • Tim Mc on 25/02/2020 - 20:01

      I was informed by LiveChat that Boost is a part of Telstra and that the $150 SIM Kit 120GB offer is only available to customers who port in from other carriers or get a new number. Recommended porting out to a different carrier first.

      Telstra postpaid > Telstra prepaid > Boost blank SIM from 1258881 + $150 recharge = 80GB. No 120GB offer.
      Telstra postpaid > Vodafone prepaid > Boost $2 SIM + $150 recharge = 80GB. And then bumped to 120GB via LiveChat. YMMV. I wouldn't try this again.
      Telstra postpaid > Vodafone prepaid > Boost $150 SIM starter kit = 120GB offer.

  • rdchristy2 on 18/02/2020 - 10:42

    Can anyone please tell me..

    Are you allocated a new 10gb each month? Or..

    Are are you given the entire 120gb to use and pace it out through the year yourself?

    • Trojan on 18/02/2020 - 10:43
      +1

      You pace yourself. You could use 100GB in the first month if you wanted to (leaving 20GB for the rest of the year)

    • jzx100 on 18/02/2020 - 10:43

          That's how they learn. Have 2 of them with this plan, and they really treasure their data. Helps having Android phones, so they can set the limit.
          They both know the bank of Mum n Dad has no interest in further mobile phone funding until the 12 month anniversary.

          You can do this on the phone itself! There's hard data limits that you can set so you can't go over.

    • whosyourbuddha on 27/02/2020 - 15:02

      No given 120gb to pace out that's why I've never done a year! id hate to be left with 0data… They do have $15 for 3 recharges atm!

      yep.

  • benchman on 18/02/2020 - 10:47

    I activated boost sim last month. I called them up to ask if I could receive additional 40gb added however they said it is a new promotion commencing today on Feb 18th with new online purchases of the $150 sim.

    • ozsj on 18/02/2020 - 10:53

      Seems to indicate this won’t work with sims purchased elsewhere per questions above, but I’d like to know for sure.

      Update: Boost agent chat said:

      So to be clear, I don’t need to buy it directly from Boost?
      For example, I can get a $150 SIM from Officeworks and will still get the bonus data?
      Ivy Andrea - 8:06

      Yes, as long as you have $150 sim kit

  • jzx100 on 18/02/2020 - 10:47

    Been waiting for this to drop too $120ish but with 120gb for $150…. just too good to pass.

  • slowFTL on 18/02/2020 - 10:49

    Thanks OP! For those who don't mind porting in/out 3 more times, Koganmobile $14.90/60Gb/90Days -> Catch Connect $9.90(after cashback)/60Gb/90Days -> Kogan -> Catch Connect would net you 240Gb for under $50. :-)

    • scuderiarmani on 18/02/2020 - 10:53

      Just watch the expiry dates, I reckon Catch isn't very lenient, even if some get lucky and still work.

      • slowFTL on 18/02/2020 - 10:54

        Good call! :-)

    • sween64 on 18/02/2020 - 12:39

  • a real bargain on 18/02/2020 - 10:59

    I am currently on Lebara paid until end of May 2020 and want to switch to Boost. Is there any way I could utilise this deal without losing 2 months (April,May) on Lebara?

    • Click_It on 18/02/2020 - 11:22

      Same except Catch Mobile and July 2020. If it was 1 or 2 months overlap I'd probably bite the bullet but I'm not saying goodbye to 4 months. Hoping another deal will come along as 80GB is not enough for me and 240GB is too much. I tend to use 8GB/month so this is perfect for me.

  • morgs640 on 18/02/2020 - 11:01

    So I guess we have to buy through boost for this deal right?

      Optus (only during EST business hours)…

      I went from telstra to optus to boost in less than 2 hours. But call optus that way you don't need to spend the $10 recharge

      Got a free sim from optus store as the website promo could not deliver in time due to the Toll cyber attack

      • OzBestDeal on 18/02/2020 - 12:11

      • freefall101 on 18/02/2020 - 15:38

        Took me several days to go from telstra postpaid to boost as my telstra account had to be converted to prepaid first and there was a couple of delays in both processes.

    are there any deals atm for the $150 recharge???

      Even if there was Boost Online chat guy said they won't honor SIMS for bonus data purchased from elsewhere….He said it has to be bought online only….not sure how correct he is….

      • angelkulit025 on 18/02/2020 - 15:39

        you should've asked how can they tell the difference.

        • kiwiinoz on 18/02/2020 - 15:39

          Maybe by SIM Numbers….

      They can still recharge.

    • OzBestDeal on 18/02/2020 - 11:28

      Recharge will get you standard 80GB data without bonus

  • bargainfinder on 18/02/2020 - 11:07

    Best value for money mobile SIM plan to date, even more so with this added bonus data. Too bad my current boost sim still have 5 months to go.

  • sabrelli on 18/02/2020 - 11:09

    for all those who are asking if they can just buy sim from a retailer and activate online, website states:

    Available to customers who buy a $150 SIM online and activate by 30.03.20.

    • angelkulit025 on 18/02/2020 - 11:14

      how would they know if its an online or anywhere else bought. All it gives you are the same recharge voucher anyways.

        Maybe $150 SIMs sold online has a serial number that they keep track of?

      • Smigit on 18/02/2020 - 22:41

        Well every sim has a unique number associated with it, so they could in theory monitor that. In practice I doubt they are.

    "Seems like a pretty good deal to me", understatement of the year. Good for those who need it, I still have 52GB left and 10 days to recharge.

  • nateboy on 18/02/2020 - 11:20

    I'm hopeful that it applies to current customers who recharge also? The landing/offer page has both options, i.e. to buy the $150 sim, but also just below it as "CURRENT CUSTOMERS: Select $150 when you recharge"

    edit: Nvm, hopped onto the chat where they confirmed it doesn't apply to existing customers (as per usual :/)

  • mitcheo on 18/02/2020 - 11:22

    Has Boost run a 120GB deal before? A quick OB search didn't bring much up.

    120GB is perfect for me, 80GB not enough and 240GB too much. Maybe this is testing the waters for demand?

    Online Agent told me that all i had to do today was order a $2 Sim online from boost today, and then I could use my Voucher I purchased from Coles a few weeks ago. Hmmm. So i ordered the $2 sim online from boost - god knows when it will arrive. I, then engaged in a convo with another agent that said you MUST purchase the $150 Sim Kit from boost online from today to get the extra 40GB (i.e. none of us can use our discounted kits purchased in the past and activate from today AND get the extra GB). So, who do you believe?. I don't think the online guys actually know.
