          Ahhh okay cheers good to know then. I might just wait then. Only got 3 more weeks left on my subscription. Hopefully they keep this offer running or allow existing accounts to join shortly

  • droodle on 18/08/2021 - 17:15

    cancelled Amazon Prime account - option was to instantly cancel - but then said not eligible :( might have to start a new account

  • GuitarXXX on 18/08/2021 - 17:32

    Took Amazon Prime 12m for free this is amazing. More free skins for my LOL game

  • GeneralSkunk on 18/08/2021 - 17:38

    I’m in the big boat with others with existing prime accounts (only a month). Wondering if anyone can advise if, rather than cancel it, use a new or different Amazon account with a secondary email. I have 2 accounts. Would I have to set my Optus account email to the secondary email address first before applying?

    • droodle on 18/08/2021 - 17:40

      i cancelled - got a refund on the spot - waited a bit then re-activated

  • j00828 on 18/08/2021 - 17:43

    Thanks Op. Just in time to renew free 12 months Amazon Prime.

    I have an active postpaid account with optus but I am getting this!

    "Optus SubHub is currently available for customers on eligible Optus plans who receive an Optus bill. We're adding support for more payment types soon, so stay tuned for updates."

    "You are ineligible for Optus SubHub.

    Please link an eligible Optus account to unlock the features of Optus SubHub and link your subscriptions."

    Anyone knows what is wrong?

    *Edit:

    They have activated it for me manually.

    Free Amazon prime 🤩🤩🤩

    • dajiska on 18/08/2021 - 21:56

      @Sharah - can you tell me where did you find this deal? I cant find in the My Optus app?
      Or did you call the Optus support?

      • shahrah on 19/08/2021 - 08:07

        It's not in optus app. Just use the direct link provided and log in using your email address of your optus account.

  • kimba88 on 18/08/2021 - 18:30

    Am I understanding this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/644853 properly? You can get 80gb data, unlimited calls and optus sport for $27.50/month by buying a prepaid sim, porting your number to the prepay sim, then signing up to the $27.50/month deal? Or do you need two separate accounts with them? Then you can sign up to this deal with Amazon prime membership - correct?

    I'm currently with circles.life and paying $28/month for 100gb (I get nowhere near that).. And I want access to optus sport. Amazon prime would be a huge bonus too though!

    • kimba88 on 18/08/2021 - 21:16

      Never mind, just called up and asked for the 50% off deal and got it. Will sign up to subhub once i get my sim and can activate.

      • killabob on 18/08/2021 - 21:35

        So not even bringing a second number over?

        • kimba88 on 18/08/2021 - 21:52

  • Baby Grogu on 18/08/2021 - 19:26

    I’m on monthly prime membership, if I cancel the subscription now would that affect my subscribe and save stuff or pending items that’s arriving soon? 😕

    • keithality on 18/08/2021 - 21:38

      I think subscribe and save is separate to prime

      Not any time soon. It’s been free for 3 years at least since I first signed up for a post paid service with Optus.

      • ComputerPC on 18/08/2021 - 22:24

        Nice. I was with Optus for years now but not watching sport. It is good to know

    Any chance this deal gets pulled early? I have prime till the first week of September.

    • ironworthy on 18/08/2021 - 21:03

      t&cs state it can be withdrawn anytime, so if it gets ozb'd and they decide they're losing money, they will yank it.

      • capslock janitor on 19/08/2021 - 00:29

        where do you see terms and conditions?

        • ironworthy on 19/08/2021 - 00:42

          its on the first page, someone posted in the comments. 'Offer available until withdrawn' So basically they can stop it at any time

    • Baby Grogu on 18/08/2021 - 21:12

      Did you have any subscribe and save stuff saved or like pending orders? I am on monthly amazon prime too but not sure if that would stuff my orders…

      • Baby Grogu on 18/08/2021 - 23:46

        Update: just chat to amazon they said won’t affect my current orders

    • capslock janitor on 19/08/2021 - 00:13

      Any pro-rata refund on the monthly?

      • Baby Grogu on 19/08/2021 - 08:49

        Unfortunately no, as they say you have already used a prime benefit. Like postage etc. I haven’t cancelled my prime yet as I still need to figure out what I need to do - do I suppose to cancel then select the prime membership on Optus or doesn’t matter when?

        • capslock janitor on 19/08/2021 - 12:50
          +1

          I cancelled Prime via chat - then applied the offer on Optus SubHub.
          (It's worth cancelling if you think of it as $7 for whole'nother year)

          You should try linking it first before cancelling and see if it does anything. I only thought of that after the fact.

          • Baby Grogu on 19/08/2021 - 12:52

            @capslock janitor: Will let you know how I go! Thanks!

            @capslock janitor: Done - no prorata but I was only a week off before my month is due. And like you said worth doing it. Very simple - chatted to them and clicked the link and bam - prime membership again! Ty

  • melbourne guy on 18/08/2021 - 20:34

    Looks like I need to wait until my current annual prime sub ends on October 30, cancel it then and then sign up again via Optus. It seems if I cancel now it will end immediately and I would forfeit the remaining time.

    • DarkOz on 18/08/2021 - 20:37

      I cancelled my early 2 months ago and they refunded the unused months pro-rata. Something like $29 or so.

    Is anyone on a discounted Optus trying to link their account? I am currently on a $35pm plan with 25% discount bringing it down to around $26 but when the Optus Subhub asks me if I want to link that account, it just says $35 plan. I am hoping signing up to this won't void my discounted plan…

    • Benoffie on 18/08/2021 - 21:36
      +2

      I think its showing the $35 plan because thats the plan you are actually on. The 25% discount is an add on to that plan. Well thats the way it used to work when I was an Optus drone many years ago. Subhub would just be reading the plan name from the billing system.

      You should be fine.

    Just FYI you can cancel prime membership and get a portion refunded then use this

    I got $53 back from yearly membership, was just under a month in.

    • Notoriousbird on 18/08/2021 - 22:55

      I had 3 weeks left of my annual membership and they wouldn't refund. Cancelled anyways and redeemed this. Had to because this offer is definitely getting removed early due to getting ozbargained.

    • DertySouth on 18/08/2021 - 22:59

      Did you do the cancellation through live chat or was this just through clicking on ending your membership? I’m in the same boat of a month in with a yearly membership

      • Notoriousbird on 18/08/2021 - 23:07

        I went to live chat. The customer service person was really struggling and it took them like 30 minutes. I responded asking a question and they didn't reply so I just closed the ticket window. 10 minutes after it was done and then I went into subhub and added it through there.

      • gadgetguy on 18/08/2021 - 23:08

        I just did this through live chat and asked for immediate closure - not waiting for my membership to expire. I don't think you can do this yourself online. Didn't get any refund but I only have a few weeks left.

        Checked my account and Prime was gone (it offered to sign me up). Clicked on the subhub offer and it was done.

      • [Deactivated] on 19/08/2021 - 01:00

    Just saved $16/m by leaving Optus to go to Aussie Broadband. This is a nice deal if you want to go with Optus but their plans are not competitive at this time. I’ll save much more money by taking the deal I have than through this one.

  • Italkdigital on 19/08/2021 - 04:06

    Just wondering anyone use this for 12 months as wondering if one can get another 12 months free Amazon Prime or is a once of thing?

  • BluebirdV on 19/08/2021 - 05:51

    I have the 3 months trial on Optus for mobile broadband. If I cancel it will I still have a free subscription to Amazon Prime for 12 months?

    • Italkdigital on 19/08/2021 - 06:06

      Actually I used the 3 months trial on Optus for mobile broadband plan to sign up with Amazon Prime so had the same thoughts too,.. well I will be cancelling my 3x 3 months trial on Optus for mobile broadband plans at end of next month so will let you know how it goes as I was worried initially I might get charged for Prime or something,..

      but I just realised the free 12 months Prime/Optus SubHud is tied to the account number of one of my plans so I guess when I cancel my Optus data plan ill also loose the free Prime as the Prime is charged to my Optus account billing for that plan showing currently $0 for this month, I can actually sign up another 2x more times of free Prime with each of my other data plans

      Now I'm worried how long this deal will go for but I have a feeling its going to be a long term offer for Optus postpaid customers but maybe a one off per account, more info link below, there also going to introduce a Netflix and Fetch deal and there are few other deals

      I might chat to Optus to see how long this deal is for

      • coolsteps on 19/08/2021 - 12:20

        ill have to remember to get the $5 fetch mini subscription before my $7.50 data sim promo ends in 12 months and then cancel the sim and keep the $5 fetch mini subscription and amazon for another 12 months. do they send you a free set top box?
