      CC is one of the best tracking stores we have. I can’t comment as to why it may not have worked for you as I’m not sure how you transacted. My suggestion is to use the Cashrewards mobile app to purchase and use 4G. This eliminates plugin issues on desktop browsers and any potential firewall/router/wifi issues with your network. Just FYI. Thanks.

        And that's why I much rather prefer the coded ones rather than the cashback ones. Don't really have any tracking issues normally, but I mostly use other cashback sites nowdays (sorry). Thanks for the advice.

  • qwijibo on 07/05/2020 - 16:16

    In case anyone is already on CatchConnect and wants to do the port-out-then-back-in dance, I just did that a couple of days ago and it went surprisingly smoothly.

    This is what I did:
    1. Before signing up to new CC plan, make sure to cancel auto-recharge on your existing CC plan.
    2. Change the email in your existing CC plan. If you're using gmail, you can change it to e.g. <username>[email protected] - i.e. the bit after the + sign can be anything you want.
    3. Order new CC service.

    Then, when the existing CC plan expired:
    4. Buy $2 telstra sim.
    5. Port out from CC to Telstra - I did this about 10pm at night, and it went through in about 15 minutes. My CC plan had just expired about a day before, but it still ported out fine. I used whatever the telstra prepaid option was that did't require me to pay anything.
    6. I waited until the next morning, then activated new CC sim. CC sends you a text with a code you need to make the port go thru. CC was active within about 30 minutes.

    With all the cashrewards cashback, even accounting for the $2 sim that I'm throwing away, I think my monthly mobile cost is now averaging about $2.50 per month for the last 6 months.

    • NPB on 07/05/2020 - 18:22
      +2

      you do not need to change the email address. i did the same to my two sim mobile numbers last week, catach -port out to telstra sim and then back to catch again. I did this on weekend therefore had to wait until monday to port back to catch. In my experience, do not port in /out on weekend. Port out from telstra/boost to catch is bit frustrating however Kogan - Catch- Kogan never had problems.

      • qwijibo on 08/05/2020 - 12:53

        Good to know. I think I did the email change as a precautionary measure to make sure there was no previous account linked to my email to make sure cashback wasn't negated for something trivial like that.

        • bajirao on 08/05/2020 - 23:07

          Oh so if I had Catch in the past (6 months back or so and now with different provider), I can still get onto this offer and get cash back?

          • qwijibo on 08/05/2020 - 23:11
            +1

            @bajirao: If you read the cashback terms, seems so (even without changing email like I did).

            When you activate, it just has to be for a service that is not currently active on catch - so if you've ported out to another provider, you should be fine.

    • Italkdigital on 08/05/2020 - 22:34

      Always good idea to buy some spare $2 Sims when there offered for free from there website,. I.e. Optus and Telstra 👍🤪

    A legit way of getting people's real details. by law you have to provide true name-sur name-phone no. to telephone companies. For 10c they get 100% accurate, up to date details. I say it's a bargain for them not Ozbargainers.

    • Neoika on 07/05/2020 - 19:45
      +4

      Why not? Kogan <=> Catch usually takes only 5-10 mins.

      • Italkdigital on 08/05/2020 - 22:37

        What great offers have Kogan provided in the past?

    • Shekster on 07/05/2020 - 22:19
      +2

      That's exactly what I do. I made a post on here detailing the breakdown but it'll take too long for me to find it.

      But I effectively pay ~$2-3 per month for more data than I'll ever need + unltd calls/texts by jumping between a combination of kogan and catch new customer offers and the odd 100% cashback deals which pop up a few times a year.

      Have started to try convincing friends/family that they can save literally hundreds per year (thousands for some) if they're willing to take out the 10minutes needed every few months to manage this sort of scheme.

      A friend of mine was spending $105 pm on a 24m contract for the S10+. Convinced them to pay out the ETC to cancel the contract a year early (negotiated it down to ~$400). They've now gone from $105 per month to now less than $50 per year, which means even after paying out the contract early they still will save almost $1k over the next 12 months…

      I had one of my first purchases through CR declined after 3 months of waiting. Turns out having the honey browser extension installed (despite not clicking/activating it for the purchase) was enough to cause it to be declined.

  • ozhunter68 on 08/05/2020 - 20:36

    Catch Connect ask you to tick a box if you have no more than 4 active prepaid services, so I did.

    I have 4 active sims already with CC and purchasing this one will be number 5 ( not to mention at least 10 other various prepaid active sims I have with various carriers ), but the sale went through fine and amount tracked few minutes after.

    Is there a way to cancel old unused active numbers? Had a look but did not find.

    Let's see if I get the money in the end after activating the sim, will grab another now haha.

    Oops, my 2nd order for my 6th active sim service failed, they stated I already have 5 now, oh well lol.

    • Italkdigital on 08/05/2020 - 22:44

      I solved the 5 limit by signing up another catch connect account, now I have bought 10 of these SIM plans still using the same cash rewards account for both catch accounts, just remember when your in the cash rewards account to sign out of the current catch connect account your using, yes you get to sign up with the next catch connect account after you have purchased again another one sim plan and youll also be signed in with that account, enjoy 🤪🙄😬🤑👍

      • ozhunter68 on 09/05/2020 - 07:43

        Thanks for the helpful tips. Was a bit tired last night and went to sleep early, so missed your comment but will keep in mind for next time .

        When signing up for second Catch C. account, do you use same name but different email? Same/different credit card?

        Is there any way to Cancel old unused numbers/services? How long do numbers/services stay active after not re-charging? Looks to be at least 6 months.

  • Italkdigital on 08/05/2020 - 22:49

      If someone is already with Catch Connect and they want to avail this offer (and keep their number), they need to become a "new customer". They do this by porting to another provider (hence the $2 sims). Then they port back to Catch Connect as new customers.

            Only the Telcos ( looking at you Kogan Mobile lol ) that require you to be away from their

            network with same number/account ask you to wait 30 days after you have ported out.

            I have not done this with Catch C., but from what I read hear, you can just port out and back in back to back instantly.

              @ozhunter68: awesome, that makes a lot of sense,
              so if you were doing kogsnd 30day sim over and over again hypothetically, then you couldnt do it as you , would need to be away from kogan network

              • ozhunter68 on 09/05/2020 - 13:02

                @Samsungnote10: Correct. Many people like myself use the Kogan XL ( now 40gb/30 days ) @ $0-$4.90 just to activate a new number/service ( up to 5 per month using same credit card ) mainly for cheap data.

                If you want to port to and fro to/from Kogan, most people go for one of those 3 months 20gb/30 days for $14.90 from both Kogan as well as Catch Connect, unless your happy to have a few days gap in between the 28/30 day deals.
