        No better than Boost then ☹️

        • sh4hp on 01/02/2022 - 21:30

          Slightly better in some aspects, as it has E-sim conversion.

          • [Deactivated] on 01/02/2022 - 21:32

            @sh4hp: Do you know if we can add an Apple Watch to this if it’s in my iPhone or is that still only on plans.

          • Dealayed on 14/02/2022 - 10:27

            @sh4hp: Asked Telstra on chat and they said they dont have esim on prepaid.
            Looking at getting a sim for my mobile and having the same account for my watch with an esim.

            • sh4hp on 14/02/2022 - 10:50

              @Dealayed: If you're looking at E-Sim for the watch, then postpaid is the only way at the moment.

              Phone plans have E-Sim conversion, which was confirmed by stores as well.

        • wellzi on 02/02/2022 - 07:34

          and has visual voicemail… that's about the only benefit I can think of beyond esim. lol

          • BradH13 on 02/02/2022 - 10:53

            @wellzi: Boost has visual voicemail too, at least it did on my phone when I was with them for 2 years.

      • GenerallyClumsy on 02/02/2022 - 10:52

        doesn't seem to work. Anyone else had any luck asking Telstra to turn on 5g on a $30 pre-paid plan?

  • lovebug on 01/02/2022 - 22:10

    Does anyone know what happens when you run out of the allocated data? I can’t seem to find the information. Eg, does it cap the speed or you can’t access any data at all?

    • fozzie on 01/02/2022 - 22:18

      You can buy data packs:
      1gb valid for 7 days @$5
      4gb valid for 28 days @$20

      • lovebug on 01/02/2022 - 22:32

        Thank you for the info

  • klonky on 01/02/2022 - 22:15

    Can you go from post paid straight to this prepaid without having to port out?

    • GenghisGun on 01/02/2022 - 22:28

      yes. I've ported over (technically activated the prepaid sim) and used the telstra live chat to help me keep my post paid number. from memory you can't just activate and punch in your post paid telstra number during activation, but that may have changed. my advice is to just hit up telstra chat and tell them you've got a sim starter pack and want to keep telstra number

      Why was this negged? Doesnt the other deal give the same pack for $228 instead of $250?

      • 1st-Amendment on 02/02/2022 - 08:16

        Because it's a different deal. While Boost and Telstra offers are very similar they are not the same. Apple oranges etc…

        • stirlo on 02/02/2022 - 09:24

          No it's not. There's a link to the Telstra pack at the bottom of the post. Direct link here: Use coupon TIGER

          There is a Telstra deal as well in the other post. Apples with Apples :D

  • Stevo-ozbargain on 01/02/2022 - 22:46

    Does anyone know for sure if the access to 5g claims made in the thread referenced above are true? Anyone being able to access 5g on telstra $300 prepaid? I am with boost but will gladly move to Telstra if I can access 5g access on this $300 card.

    • T-man on 01/02/2022 - 23:32
      +3

      Let me make it clear for you.

      I was on the old prepaid plan (Telstra Complete) and I am having access to 5G network.

      A friend of mine on the new plan (Prepaid Plan) and she can only access 4G, only the $65 prepaid plan can access 5G.

      That’s why you see some mixed reports from someone who can and cannot access 5G on their Telstra prepaid plans.

      • Stevo-ozbargain on 01/02/2022 - 23:59

        Thanks for the clarification T-Man.

    • raunaq on 02/02/2022 - 01:31

      I'm on the same plan (bought the same sim on a similar deal in December) and I managed to chat with Telstra support and get 5g activated, no questions asked.

    • User218134 on 02/02/2022 - 07:42

      I bought Telstra prepaid during boxing day sales and it got 5G enabled already. Esim on prepaid cane recently but now I got esim and 5g enabled.

    • xylarr on 09/02/2022 - 09:03

      If you scroll down it shows the other prepaid offers.
      It explicitly says the network access each of the plans has.
      The only one that I could see that has access is the $65 a month plan.
      It explicitly said the $300 (for $250) plan had 4G access only.

      "This plan includes access to Telstra’s 4G, 4GX and 3G networks. Please note, it does NOT include access to our 5G network. 5G network access is included in the $60 SIM recharge. To access the 5G network, you’ll need a 5G compatible device in a 5G coverage area."

    Tried to get optus chat to change my postpaid to prepaid (same deal as this) but they refuse to do it for existing customer. Looks like I'm moving to Telstra.

    • heyrosered on 01/02/2022 - 23:13

      I'm not near any new buildings, but near major infrastructure in Sydney, and would lose calls after switching from Telstra to Vodafone. Couldn't start maps in my car until I was down the street because there was no data, which had never been a problem before. Only stayed with them (via Internode) until a deal came up to switch to Telstra network again.

    • s26f84 on 01/02/2022 - 23:13

      telstra is best in WA

    • Awesomandy on 01/02/2022 - 23:14

      My experience is quite the opposite. My wife and I tried Vodafone and left them pretty quickly. But I guess it doesn’t matter how good a network is at covering the whole of Australia - you just need one that works reasonably well at where you are going to be, and that can be any of the 3 telcos.

      • 1st-Amendment on 02/02/2022 - 08:18

        My experience is quite the opposite

    It says "starter pack" so assume this can't be used for recharges? This info is quite important for a lot of people.

    • smartinet on 02/02/2022 - 08:42

      Correct.
      Get a $2 Voda sim, port out then port back.

  • drillvoice on 02/02/2022 - 08:53

    Do you have to activate by a particular date? Doesn't look like it…?

    • xylarr on 09/02/2022 - 09:04

      Click on the offer details

      Activate your $300 SIM card on a Pre-Paid Mobile plan and get 225GB on your first recharge. Then 150GB from your second. Activate or first recharge between 1 Feb 2021 and 28 March 2022.

      So, you have until the end of March. That unfortunately rules it out for me - my current plane expires in June.

        I think Officeworks doesn't price beat when coupons are used, so probably not. But you could price beat the Telstra price to get it to $237.50 if you prefer to shop at OW.

        • badabing on 02/02/2022 - 11:20

          Thanks would you still get the bonus data etc?

          • stirlo on 02/02/2022 - 11:34

            @badabing: The bonus data is just based on when it’s activated. Where you buy the SIM (and how much you pay) has no effect

  • GenerallyClumsy on 02/02/2022 - 11:00

    100 international sms for a year. Is that right, seems kind of stingy?

    • T-man on 02/02/2022 - 16:01

      When was the last time you SMS someone? I can't remember when, I am just using, Whatsapp, Messenger, and iMessage.

  • dbun1 on 02/02/2022 - 11:11

    Is there anyway to get this applied to existing prepaid users? I've been doing yearly recharges with Telstra, but now looking around at better deals.
    Happy to stay with Telstra if I can find a way to take advantage of these cheaper packs that come up from time to time.

    • hawkeye93 on 02/02/2022 - 20:03

      Port out and back in. Easy peasy.

    • Mingles on 03/02/2022 - 16:38

      Just spoke to Telstra on the phone as well as Telstra Chat… they both said I can just purchase the $300 starter kit and, activate it and contact them to transfer my current Telstra pre-paid number to the new SIM. Not sure if true or not???

      • fozzie on 03/02/2022 - 16:57

          I think it's true. Just purchased anyway. We'll see how it goes.

          Worst case, I'll just port out and back in as mentioned above.

      Yes you can receive sms for free.

      • stirlo on 04/02/2022 - 14:03

        Are you sure of this?

        Telstra announced roaming was being removed in 2020 and it’s hasn’t been brought back yet. My
        partners boost mobile (which uses the same Telstra backend system) had no signal and could not receive SMS in USA last month (it did work in NZ (including sending for free) however).
