        • Where where where :)

        • +1

          I went to Ikea with the $10 off early this year and there was a $50 minimum spend. Didn't have a minimum spend before. Not sure if it has changed again.

      Boost juice accounts for your birthday

    • does anyone know how many sims you can have active at the same time?

      • 10 i guess, not entirely sure though. I remember some service provider made me acknowledge that i do not have 10 or more sims registered under my name before activating theirs

  • Do you need to disable auto recharge like kogan?
    Also do you still get cashback if you port out on that number?
    How many sims one can have active from boost to get cashback?
    End date for the promo?
    Gracias!

    • Yes, but there's option enable or not during activate.
      Yes.
      It's per activated SIM. There's is no mention about limit from Cashback.
      See above - right above the Report.

    Hope many sims can you buy before you are banned from boost?

    • +3

      I'd like to know that too. I've been buying one per week for the last 4 months or so.

    • I bought one from this deal on 28th Dec and just another one from this deal

      The previous Boost Mobile SIM has been dispatched and it’s on the way

      No worries, Happy New Year to you too mate :)

    Can you ask the Boost rep if 3-5 days is the same as 2-3 weeks when it comes to Perth?
    AusPost has been having severe delays, but nobody seems to update their shipping info and just assumes they can ship nationwide from Sydney in 3-5 days.

  • Thanks in advance for any advice here..

    I'm currently already with Boost.. If I buy one of these can I go straight onto the new Boost sim here??

    Or do I need to port out to someone else, then port back to Boost?

    • +1

      I doubt you can port the number to the same provider

  • +1

    Can you keep the same phone number ?

    • Yes I wanted to know this also.

      • Yes. Just ask the chat support. Did it once 2 months back.

        • Do you mean port in number or use it as recharge?

  • I am currently on Boost. If I change to Kogan and then change back to Boost in 15 days, would that work?

  • +2

    Does the boost deals from previous months not have the activate in 30days requirement? I bought some in Sept and Nov without activating but still got the cashback

    .

    • They did have the activate within 30 day requirement. You're lucky I guess.

  • If I change from Telstra postpaid to Boost and want to keep the same number can the whole process be done via the Boost app?

  • +2

    Thanks. Just ordered one but not tracked. My first time not-tracked order. 🥹

    • Any joy yet? I'm thinking of buying.

      • Nope. I will send a claim in click history later.

  • Why do I keep gettin the error messag "Sorry, we are unable process your order. Please try again later." when I submit the order after entering CC details?

    • I asked chat about this, I thought perhaps I had bought too many Sims. From memory they said to clear the cache of the browser etc. and give it another go, and it worked.

      • +1

        tried clearing the cache .. same problem

  • Tried to buy one and hit an error, do they get upset if you're trying to order your 6th new sim + new number 6 months?

    • I went on chat, submitted a case with reference number and was told to try again in 24 hours.

      • +4

        Sounds like a typical zero effort response…

  • Stupid question but: you don't count already expired Boost sims that still appear in your My Boost Mobile account as part of the number of prepaid sims limit right?

    • +1

      Actually not that stupid a question.

      The answer should technically be yes.

      However, despite this "limit of 4 per ID", it's never really enforced. So there isn't really a "limit" so to speak.

      Just don't do anything illegal and I think you'll be sweet, otherwise whether you've got 1 SIM or 15 SIMs… you'd still be in trouble if you're playing with the law.

      But IANAL.

      • So technically have to wait for your number to disappear from the list even though it's "expired" ie not recharged

  • How does one get multiple JB Hifi perk vouchers? Do you need a new number and email address every time? Or just a number? Cheers

  • such a pain trying to buy a sim every time one of these deals comes up.
    chat rep has no idea and just tries to blame my device/card.

    edit: eventually got the order through with a completely new email.

  • First time using cashback question…

    You must return and click through Cashrewards for each new transaction.

    I didn't see an option to get back to cashrewards after transaction on the boost website? Could someone elaborate?

    • My stupid way is to log out and close the browser, then log back in again.

    • You just have to go back to (return) cashrewards and click through and make purchase that's it. Best to close previous Boost tab also

  • How long until Telstra spin off Boost in an IPO with fantastic subscriber numbers? Maybe a spac? Bound to be a mediocre investment proposition.

    I got an email from Boost on 14/12/22 saying:

    "As you may know, Boost Mobile prepaid telecommunications services are provided by our partner Telstra, who are undertaking corporate restructure. As part of the restructure, on 1 January 2023, your account and services you will be transferred internally within the Telstra group from Telstra Corporation Limited to Telstra Limited."

    Don't think "your account and services you will be transferred internally …" makes any sense grammatically.

    Maybe I should get a couple of additional sims from them in the meantime, just so I don't miss out on the bonanza..

  • Does the activation have to match the purchase details?

    And anyone still having problems buying these?

    • i've found that using a different email address finally gets the order through.

  • @boostmobileau Just wondering how often Aus Post returns Boost SIMs to sender and fails to deliver.

    It's my second time ordering from Boost and not sure if I want to order another one.
    I've received other online shopping at same address.

    Ordered this Boost SIM on 31 Dec.
    Aus Post returned SIM to sender on 6 Jan with note - Incorrect address on item.
    However address is correct.
    Boost didn't send me the tracking number both times I ordered.
    Also didn't inform me of failed delivery.
    As I haven't received the SIM, I contacted Boost today via online chat.
    Agent doesn't know where SIM is.

    Quote from agent:
    As of the moment, we have not received the order yet.
    Once the order has been delivered back to our warehouse, refund will be processed.
    We have received few orders that have been tagged as returned to sender even though the address is correct.
    To be honest, even my daughter had the same issue as well.

    I've requested for refund now as SIM is lost and Boost cannot resend.
    Confirmation email came from Telstra that refund has been requested.

  • Hi Trixie,

    Sorry to hear that you weren't able to receive your order. Once the order has been passed on to the courier, they are responsible for the delivery i.e verifying if the address is deliverable or incorrect. That said, we'd like to investigate what happened here. Would you mind emailing us at [email protected] with your details so we can check this? Hope to hear back. Thank you!

    • @boostmobileau Thanks for the reply. The agent messaged that they will investigate this with Australia Post and also other customers' failed deliveries.

      • +1

        Thanks for letting me know! If you need further help, please don't hesitate to email me. Hopefully, we'll get this sorted as soon as possible.
