InB4 someone says "Optus no thanks or Floptus". I get better reception than Telstra so I guess it depends on your location.

  Completely agree. Network reception is a total YMMV hence, to each their own :-)
  I am on this plan since last year. Works out to be the cheapest with International calls included. Except for the insane deals amaysim gets in June each year.

  Ive been on this plan now for 9 months and had no reception issues at all
  Much better reception than Kogan mobile (Vodafone). I mean HEAPS BETTER!
  
  And a warning to anyone thinking about this plan later…Dont wait!!!!
  
  Its NO LONGER AVAILABLE on the amaysim web site.
  https://www.amaysim.com.au/sim-plans/12-month-sim-plans
  More than likely will be removed from retail sale as well.
  
  So GRAB IT NOW!
  
  PS You also receive SMS whilst OVERSEAS…You just cant reply.
  And you have the added advantage of Optus Wifi-Calling where you receive calls over Wi-Fi (in Australia) when reception is poor,
  
  Alternatively same Plan via Coles Mobile regularly on special for $99 (for now)
  - djoz on 14/09/2023 - 21:05
    
    It is not available directly on amaysim website under their 12-month plans.
    But it is always available at https://amaysim.com.au/119 as mentioned on the SIM Pack.

I love Amaysim! If you can hold on a couple of months, you might get a better deal when is Black Friday. I snapped up one of the $100 plans in June and got $35 cashback. Very happy! I also have a second esim. I just hope they’ll add 5g (but at this low cost seems very unlikely to happen).
- charliechao on 12/09/2023 - 09:51
  
  We have passed June already.
  
  And in the description it says 5G included?
  - fozzie on 12/09/2023 - 09:53
    
    Must be a mistake. These cheaper plans don’t have 5g. Of course June has passed, I was just saying sometimes there are even better deals if you can wait.

    Does it matter if it's 5G when this 60GB over 12 months? Serious question :)
    Great plan for low-data users though.
    - OMGJL on 12/09/2023 - 11:08
      
      in specific patchy spot, you may have good 5G but not 4G, but this is pretty rare.
      - SimAus007 on 12/09/2023 - 11:13
        
        @OMGJL: Yeah, that would be unusual as 4G travels further and is better at getting through obstacles. But yes, there may be an odd location where this could happen :)
        
        OMGJL on 12/09/2023 - 11:18
        
        @SimAus007: yeh also depends on if there's too many users crowded on 4G .
  - HeWhoKnows on 13/09/2023 - 07:42

Hi can anyone tell me I was with Amaysim before still have account do I qualify for this starter pack deal thanks.
- desibaba on 12/09/2023 - 09:48
  
  How does it matter if you have account or not for starter pack? You can't use this pack to recharge your existing number if that's what you are looking for.
- souths123 on 12/09/2023 - 14:19
  
  try a chat with Amaysim and see if they will match it? It works sometimes…mention the deal and say you don't want to have to port out and in again to use this new sim

  You can simply enable International Roaming using the app (Settings icon).
  
  You can also get the extra roaming pack ($25/month from memory) for the duration you'll be overseas. You get some outgoing calls/SMS plus 1GB roaming data.

      I think they might be the cheapest esim provider. You are correct.
      Unfortunately Woolies it’s too expensive. I know they give 10% off but you are better off buying the separate rewards and then a cheap plan in most cases.

- angelique008 on 12/09/2023 - 16:55
  
  What’s your chosen method of porting out please. When was it half price?
  - djoz on 14/09/2023 - 21:11
    
    +1
    
    Usually around May, at least for the last two years, as a part of EOFY Sale.
    Check the May 2023 deal here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/776176
    However, note that the amaysim half price deals are on their 12-month plans listed on website and are not applicable on the Woolies exclusive plans listed at https://amaysim.com.au/119 (i.e. this deal)
    
    The main difference between RRP $119 plan (Woolies exclusive) and RRP $120 plan (amaysim website) is that the RRP $119 plan includes international calling to 28 countries (see OP post in this deal), whereas the RRP $120 plan does not include any international calls, the rest of the inclusions being the same.
    
    The RRP $120 plan was on half price during EOFY Sale, but RRP $119 is not on half sale, the best you could get it is discounted at $99 and 2000 Everyday Reward Points.
    - angelique008 on 14/09/2023 - 21:14

      ooh thank you for your detailed response :) I like the international calls feature!
      - djoz on 14/09/2023 - 21:18
        
        +1
        
        @angelique008: Yeah, actually if you note the $200 plan on the May 2023 EOFY Sale, it was discounted half price to $100, and you get International Calls to 28 countries, and has 180GB (so, thrice the data).
        
        Hence, it'd make sense to take this $200 plan at half-price $100 during EOFY Sale, compared to this Woolies deal at $99 :-)
        
        However, do note that amaysim has now increased this plan to RRP $220 and data inclusions to 200 GB, so even at half-price it would cost a tad more at $110 now.

  - sane on 12/09/2023 - 11:47
    
    They regularly seem to deliver the 120Gb for $119, so provided they don't remove the deal in the meantime, you could grab it later. IIRC the general activation timescale is supposed to be 28 days, but I'm not sure if they hold to that.

  - sane on 12/09/2023 - 12:07
    
    I'd suggest as both being Optus MVNOs - the practical performance between Amaysim and Coles will be the same (customer service could be different). Personally I've not had any issues, but I'm not trying to download movies on the service either. Wouldn't look to download speed unless I was also looking to 5G at the same time.
    - [Deactivated] on 12/09/2023 - 12:13
      
      surprisingly you'd think since they're both optus mvnos they'd be the same but ive tried catch and had amaysim before, amaysim had less dropouts and a more stable connection.

  No it’s pretty quick, i ported from lebrara to amaysim on a Sunday lol. I think before it more common to do it during a weekday but the porting time between carriers is pretty quick nowadays.. they do advise it could take 3hours to 48 hours for the port but the ports I’ve done has been very quick maybe within 1-2 hours of doing the porting request

I was on boost mobile year plan, needed to post to another provider and then port back to boost yearly plan… changed to Lebara but then I decided to try a cheap amaysim plane to try it out … my experience with reception has been 😑 so I can’t wait to go back to boost and telstra reception
CyrusL on 12/09/2023 - 19:47

Switching from Boost in the next month!
Can't do a family of 4 to have $30 increase each in this crazy period with the interest rate.
Any deal for the 149$ plan?

This was posted 7 months 16 days ago, and might be an out-dated deal.
