  • Too bad my current plan expires tomorrow.

    • +11

      One day without calls/data is not too bad for a true ozbargainer.

      • Catch offers $112.5 /12 months /120gb.( That's 25% off for recharge).coles International call is handy, but more data is also welcome. I used about 90gb in the last 12 months. Too lazy to be a true ozbargainer. Lol.

      • You lose your number as you haven't recharged in a year. Same with voda. Not sure about Optus

      • +1

        Yea I used to go a few days with out calls easy. But I’ve found many carriers ask us to reply to a SMS confirming porting. Which means if I have no credits to reply I can’t port :(

        So can’t really go without service… is it different now?

        • I am pretty sure you can call them and explain you can't send text from your number ATM and they will ask you to read that code from text message.

          • @alenpln: Yea, that’s too much effort to save a few days of service cost for me

    • You could buy the recharge voucher first thing Wednesday morning? Or buy $5 of extras credit to get you through until you can buy it?

    • +2

      If you download the Coles app, you should see that you'll get 25% off if you recharge before expiry

      • I can't seem to find this 25% off the next recharge in the Coles mobile app. Do I have to wait for my existing plan to be closer to expiring before getting 25% off the recharge in the app?

        • +1

          I got the offer in the email a month before expiry.

        • there was a tip before that you have to opt in to marketing to get the 25% off offer, i opted in and i got the offer

      • Mine was included in the app towards expiry. Chat or call them to see who's eligible

    • Coles near me is already selling at discounted price. I did saw it yesterday.
      It's Coles Churchill Shopping Centre, Adelaide

    What’s the validity of recharge if I buy now and get it recharged in 3 months from now? Existing coles mobile plan going to expire in June.

    • Usually 30 days unfortunately… Would check in store once it's on though.

      • that's for the sim starter pack.

      • I bought a recharge last November and it had about 11 months on it.

        • +2

          Same
          Also stack with any flybuys offers you have

          • @Dsp: Can I add multiple monthly recharge in one go? or do I have to wait to add it on the last day of the expiry? I need a prepaid card for three months.

            • @ggmm2013123: when using the 365 day recharges you have to recharge on the last day to get the full use out of it so imagine the monthly is the same deal.

              • @jmc787: Well, I did get 2 x $20 recharge vouchers and expiry is in 2025.

        • Oh really that's amazing.

    • can not remember exact time, but my last coles recharge vourcher expire more than one year after my purchase.

    • Just bought it today, valid for 6 months

  • -1
    • No international calls.

      • That's why it's similar, not the same :)

        • Maybe but even if you solely focussed on data, the Catch plan would give you 80 gb for about the year (360 days) for $116 or so, but with Coles you could get 396 days with 85 gb for $100 if you sign up as mentioned in the description.

  • Can I use coles gift card buy the voucher in store? Got a few discounted egiftcard from shopback

    • +1

      I don't see why not. I've used discounted e-gift cards at both Coles and Woolworths to buy recharge vouchers before.

    • +2

      coles ok if you do self check out, but have to buy it using one gift card, no split payment.

  • Good value. Great find.
    Is there a valid date for active or recharge?

    • Extras Credit expires 14 days after purchase or on next Extras Credit purchase.

      I am not sure if this is an extra credit or not

    • +1

      Just bought it today, valid for 6 months

      • Thank you. yah00. Recharge valid for 6 month or both Sim card and recharge?

  • my coles mobile expire in 140 days, is it too early for me to buy this recharge voucher? Can't find any info in their FAQ.

    • Interested to know too, my current Coles plan on expire in June2022

    • They seem to have 6+ month expiry on them

    • +3

      Do not recharge before expiry. It does not stack. I have been through it.

      • Can you safely buy a recharge voucher tho?

        • yes,
          I recommend to buy it from store. online has no option to stack it.

    • Just bought it today, valid for 6 months.

  • Can anyone confirm if this works as a data sim in an iPad? I know Boost does but this is pretty cheap so wouldn't mind using this instead.

    • any mobile sim can be used for iPad AFAIK, a data sim is literally the same as a mobile sim except call/sms is blocked, you are of course allowed to use mobile sim without calling, you won't able to call with ipad anyway.

    • +1

      Could always try the $10 starter pack for the first month?

  • Why they don’t offer Wifi Calling, Optus coverage is generally bad in most areas.

    • I thought only the big-3 (and boost) offers WiFi calling?

      • No, there are many MNVOs out there offering wifi calling like Gomo, Moose, Circle…but not Coles Mobile that annoyed me.

        • Circles.Life only got it in December. I'm sure Coles will get it very soon too since Optus is repurposing some of their 3G network and so you would want VoLTE enabled so you can actually make calls before they fully shut down the 3G network.

  • Damn it, I just bought & signed up with the coles $120 2 weeks ago.

  • Would l I get Ovenware credit for mobile recharge?

    • +1

      Seems you can't.

        Thanks

  • If I have a month left, am I better off waiting or can I recharge now and it stacks??

    Also, I have 50gb unused data, will it rollover?

    • when i bought one of these discounted recharge vouchers last year it had about 10 months of validity before you had to use it, i will be buying one this year will advise how long you have to use it, expect it will be the same

      yes you can rollover up to 50GB if you recharge before expiry

    • You better recharge on the last day!!
      I have 1 month left on my plan, just did a $120 recharge, it resets my plan, I now lost 1 month and all my unused data, this is ridiculous!
      Will contact Coles mobile tomorrow to see what happened there!

  • +1

    I have comes and Woolworths mobile currently and can say both gives worst network connection but biggest benifits that I can get is 10% grocery discount from Woolworths so I will stay with Woolworths doesn't matter how much discount Coles offers.

  • Questions:
    Buy the discounted $20 starter pack(colesmobile.com.au) for $10

    Do I buy $20 kit from coles store? It comes with a sim? My belong expiry in 13 days.

    Buy a 25% off $120 recharge for $90
    

    Buy the $90 at the same time I buy the $20 Kit? Do I need to activate within 30 days? As I still have 13 days on belong.

    Use first 30 days then recharge with the 365 day voucher.
    

    Do I recharge the 365 voucher at the time when I open the $20 kit, or wait 29 days to do that?

    • Keen to know

  • coles mobile has no international roaming to receive text overseas, what about catch mobile?

  • whats the difference with the current online promotion?

    https://colesmobile.com.au/

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/686977

  • I know many people complain that Optus/Telstra/Coles Mobile/Vodafone etc only discount SIM kits but never recharges,
    so Kudos to Coles for discounting recharges. Butttt,,,,, you have to be lucky enough to need to recharge during the sale promo period.
    If I had a 365 day plan, I wonder what the expiry date would be on the recharge, say if my current 365 day SIM plan doesn't expire until June?!

    • Keep an eye on this thread for the validity of these discounted recharge vouchers when people start buying them, it could be up to 10 months.

      • not 30 days?

        • This deal is a recharge voucher, the 30 days thing refers to when you buy a SIM as new customer they say you need to activate it within 30 days

          This time last year i purchased a recharge voucher and it had around 10 month timeframe to use it, im assuming it will be similar this year

  • do i earn points with recharge? like spend $100 get 3000 points.

    • Don't see why not.

  • Keen to know the expiry dates of the voucher before I bite the bullet.

    • Keen to know too

    • Activating within 30 days will ensure that you do not miss out on any advertised benefits and inclusions that you have paid for as a part of your service. If you attempt to activate outside of this time frame, this may lead to issues with activation and/or the plan activating with credit that may not align with what you had purchased.

      It would generally last 12 months for you to redeem it however this can be subject to change for various reasons, for example if there is a promotion running this may reduce the expiry date of a voucher.

      • Shouldn't the expiry date be printed on the voucher? How would this change?

    • Just bought it today, valid for 6 months

      • Wow!! Now 6 months. Before was 10 months. Thanks to share!

    • +1

      From my experience the coles mobile recharge voucher purchased from self check out l brought 2 times both of them expire within 10 months after you purchase. It will show on your receipt for example you purchased 24/03/22 the recharge voucher will valid until 24/01/23 or a couple day earlier but not after this date. Coles mobile recharge will not print expire more than one year like the other mobile recharge voucher like Lebara ( from my experience used ) it expire 6-7 years later after purchased the voucher. I don’t know about Telstar, Optus, Vodafone prepaid voucher when it expire but l think it will valid more than a year to use the voucher. These big 3 l don’t see the mobile recharge discount very long time ago. They discount start sim pack only. Once you with them the next time recharge will be full amount charged. That’s why customer port out to the other courier without any doubt. ( Boost, Catch, Aldi etc. ) Coles mobile very smart to prevent customer to take this advantage discount to keep it for next year. I used to call and ask them why the voucher valid just 10 months not 1 year. They answered me. Normally the recharge voucher customer will purchase when the date or data almost expire to recharge it immediately 10 months to use is more than enough and it make sense. Since l cleared the answer. I have to plan ahead when my mobile will expire if it cover 10 months whatever 20% or 25% off l will purchase depending on coles catalog weekly sale time to time. I hope my info would be helpful for someone who want to purchase this mobile recharge voucher. Once you purchased by mistake or whatever reason. To refund it not that easy. You can’t refund straight away you have to contact coles customer care and explain your reason and wait for reply email approved for refund. For me it took 2-3 weeks process to get refund. So think twice before purchased this recharge voucher. If you plan to use within 10 months this is the best deal so far. I brought last time 20% off to use this November 22. I am unable to purchase this vouchers again because it unstackable. Once you recharge it will count from that 1st day of recharge expire 365 days the date will not rollover so recharge when the date almost expire is better but the data will rollover up to 50 GB. Coles mobile app has all details everything easy to access check expire date and data left whenever you want. Long story to share!

      Update. Someone just post recently. Now 10 months reduce to 6 months maybe soon will reduce to use within 30 days like start sim pack. In my opinion l am not sure maybe this is 25% off that’s why they reduce expire date to 6 months l brought 20% off 2 times both of them expire 10 months. Will add this update from 10 to 6 months plan to purchase ahead next time!!!

  • Just went to Coles supermarket. Staff there could not find the 25% discount for recharge voucher. I could not find the 25% discount on the Coles mobile website myself (I am not a current Coles mobile user). Bought the $99 for 60G SIM instead.

    • Not on the self serve registers?

    • I bought it from self register today. 25% off
      It will show the discount when you are about to pay.

      • where to grab the discounted $20 starter pack? or blank sim card free?

  • The advertisement says the $99 one is for new customers only.

    Will it work for recharging after using the $10 one for 30 days?

  • +2

    Bought today 12 months recharge self serve
    Expires 23/10/22

    • Can vouch for you, DSP. Contrary to what others members have posted I can confirm I bought via the self service check outs yesterday 23/03 and voucher gives 7 months until it expires.

  • Bought a $120 / 365 day recharge voucher today from a self serve checkout.

    Price was automatically discounted to $90 and the validity is to 23/10/22 - so I have 7 months to use it.

  • i spoke to the casheir and she couldnt figure out which is the right option….

    can it be wrong or is there just 1 option for the $120 recharge that goes down to $90?

    • +2

      There is nothing to figure out. You just need to tell the cashier which Coles mobile recharge option you want e.g. $120, $150 for the one year plans. The register will automatically take 25% off the price for all Coles mobile recharge options.

      • When I ask the Coles staff, she could not even find a $150 one year recharge. She told me there is a $125 recharge of some sort. Better do this through self check out.

        • +1

          They probably got confused with the other Prepaid providers in the system.

          Self checkout is best, you can find the $120 recharge voucher for "Coles Mobile" yourself instead of relying on mistakes from the cashier.

          I just got mine today and it expires in October.

  • Can I get this offer in Coles Express service station too ?

    • Update : I tried getting this from Coles Express, they said that offer doesn't exist.
      They however can give $99 sim for new customers, but not the 120$ recharge.

  • Does anyone know what the recharge options are other than the $120 recharge (currently discounted at $90) that gives 60GB/365 days? The recharge page on Coles Mobile website is terrible, requires you to have a valid account to see the details (and don't have time to pop into a Coles store to check myself).

    Will the $150 recharge give you 120GB over 365 days? And is this discounted at 25% too?

    ie: So will it work getting the $10 starter pack (15GB/30 days) and then recharge using the $150 option to give you another 120GB over 365 days at the end of the month?

    • Or look at this deal for Coles Mobile from tomorrow
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/691140

      • It is all good. Everything worked out well. The $150 recharge does give you 120GB over 365 days.
        I had to purchase it today as the 25% discount I think ends today so it works out a little cheaper.

        So either:
        - $2 sim + $150 recharge (discounted to $112.5) = $114.5 for 120GB / 12 months
        - $10 starter pack + $150 recharge (discounted to $112.5) = $122.5 for 135GB / 13 months (assuming you use the recharge just before the initial starter pack ends)

        And also, I had $20 Flybuys offer on $100 spend that ends today so a further discount for me.
