FAQ thanks to BG

Question Answer
1. Is Boost operated by Telstra network? Yes, on the full Telstra network
2. Does Boost support 5G? From 4 April 2023, 5G network access will be included as standard on your service and we’ll be introducing capped download speed caps on our 4G and 5G networks
3. Does Boost support e-SIM? Sadly not at this stage. However there are plans to do so
4. Do you have to activate the SIM within 30 days? Every Cashrewards Boost cashback up to and including July 31 has been approved (confirmed by TA) - provided you activated within 30 days of order
5. How long is the SIM expiry? Usually 1 year, but to qualify for cashback the SIM must be activated within 30 days of ordering
6. It is showing “new customer” on Boost website. What does this mean? New customer term is only for the additional Boost data, and nothing to do with the cashback offer
7. Can I receive international text message (aka int. roaming) with this SIM by default? Yes, you can receive SMS while overseas, but can’t send outgoing to Australia
8. How long does it take to receive the SIM? According to the Boost Rep: Once dispatched, you should receive your order within the following business days: Metro Areas – 2-5 business days for capital cities – Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Canberra, Darwin, Hobart & Brisbane (order before 4pm). Non Metro or Regional / remote areas – 3-7 business days
9. Is porting in a Telstra number to Boost considered a "new customer"? From Boost Mobile rep via dm: Porting a number from Telstra to Boost is definitely considered a new customer
10. Are you able to purchase multiple plans using different names / ID (or can I purchase 4 x plans for the family using my own details)? From Boost Mobile rep via dm: Received clarification from the team and this is a tricky one since for compliance the terms is showing the customer is only allowed 1 sim per transaction but he can buy multiple SIMs and then activate them all under his name and he will then be able to manage all the numbers when he logs into the App with his Boost ID.
11. Information on what to do when the "please try again later" " or "SORRY, SOMETHING WENT WRONG" message comes up List of indicators that can affect how your order is flagged in different financial systems, which can hopefully help you understand what is going wrong. Possible fraud scenario: API returns during purchase - credit to @himalpatel. Live chat advised that if you faced the above fraud scenario message, you need to use your friends details (aka a completely different details) to order
12. Can this be used to recharge? No, this is a starter pack. Using as a "recharge" is being dis-allowed and activating first and moving the number may be allowed but is frowned upon and may not be allowed in future depending on how you ask for it.

Enjoy!

    It’s a bear market!

      In a bear market, more spammers are needed.

  • Nelumbo on 07/10/2023 - 10:04

    These Boost deals seem to be coming more frequently these days… 🤔 (not that I am complaining, of course 😆)

    Thanks, HamBoi :)

  • txb on 07/10/2023 - 10:19

    What do people use these Sims for?

    • TheAccountant on 07/10/2023 - 10:26
      +3

      I switch providers each month depending on what SIMs are on sale at Woolies/Coles for $10 and these Boost SIMs.

      Timed it and it only takes 4 minutes to switch each month. It's a decent saving over a regular $30 monthly prepaid recharge.

      I put it in my car Android head unit for data

    • sween64 on 07/10/2023 - 15:19

      Profit.

      Also data in a Telstra MF910Y hotspot.

    • ajbee on 07/10/2023 - 17:36

      I dumped nbn and use these instead via my Telstra smartmodem

      Dual Sim phone so use boost for free data and hotspot internet, with my main number on a separate cheap plan

      • ClownCar on 08/10/2023 - 22:40

        Exactly the same for me

    Hi guys, I'm going over to NZ in a month's time and was wondering if I could use these kind of deals for my two week trip there. Anyone know if that works or not?

    • HamBoi69 on 07/10/2023 - 11:07

      Dot Point 7.

        Poor BG, all that work & nobody reads the FAQ.

        • HamBoi69 on 07/10/2023 - 13:07

          Almost like it's become obsolete.

        • Bubu567 on 08/10/2023 - 03:38
          +1

          I did read the FAQ I think i just am not well-versed enough around SIM cards to then naturally think 'aka int roaming' also means i would be able to use internet the same way i do everyday from a simcard i use here in Aus. But yes I understand what you mean because it can be an inconvenience to kind of repeat yourself from something you have already made clear.

          Still learning things everyday and am appreciating all your patience~

      • Bubu567 on 08/10/2023 - 03:35

        Genuinely sorry I wasn't able to comprehend that dot point. Maybe im not well-versed enough in this kind of jargon or SIM card talk to realise aka Int roaming also means yes, I can use data overseas as if I could naturally being in the country i purchase the sim card in.

        I do appreciate you pointing me to dot point 7 though so I can eventually kind of figure it out along the way :)

        Thanks ozB fam.

      In NZ right now, Can confirm, the boost Sim does not work!

    • Quarter Pounder on 08/10/2023 - 15:02

      Here is your proof, need to pay for an additional roaming pack https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/424371/107103/screensh…

  • OzBed on 07/10/2023 - 10:52

    Won’t let me buy no matter how I try. Only bought 3 or 4 in the past. I think they banned my address. Any suggestions?

    • HamBoi69 on 07/10/2023 - 11:06

      Do you have a friend's address? Work perhaps?

      • OzBed on 07/10/2023 - 11:20

        I don’t have friends :(

        • wavesgreen on 07/10/2023 - 15:06

          Solution: Hand out free sims on the street, instant friends!

    • Paul B on 07/10/2023 - 12:39

      Different device or bank account?

    • sween64 on 07/10/2023 - 15:20

      Unit 1 / address.

      Or Unit 3a / address.

      Etc.

    • mkowarkski on 07/10/2023 - 22:34

      I only could buy 6 with my card. So, used another card and it worked

      • OzBed on 07/10/2023 - 22:36

        same address？

  • internet-stranger on 07/10/2023 - 11:00

      Optus. Free 7-Day eSim.

      • Quarter Pounder on 07/10/2023 - 11:09

        Are those working again? Last time I tried to port into one, it wouldn't let me.

      • internet-stranger on 07/10/2023 - 11:49
        -1

        Doesn’t work for me. Wants to charge the $12 and go via live chat.

        At other options?

        • internet-stranger on 07/10/2023 - 15:06

          Ended up amaysim $18 for 26d/80gb eSIM while waiting for sim to get delivered.

  • Jaduqimon on 07/10/2023 - 11:19

    It says sim must be activated.within 30 days. How strict is this? Anyone have experience?

  • kongkee on 07/10/2023 - 11:32

    I'm planning to use this sim just to receive texts for authentications. Do I have to renew or put money in it every year? Planning to use it until 2090.

    • timhn on 07/10/2023 - 13:38
      +2

      Depend on carrier, after 3-6 months after the credit ran out, without renew, they'll get expired.

      I don't know if we need mobile phones by 2090.

    • dsesaz on 07/10/2023 - 14:01

      Then Amaysim might be a better choice for you

  • Whatisthatvelvet on 07/10/2023 - 13:22

    How quick is delivery generally on these?

    • 1jwoz on 07/10/2023 - 13:50

      about a week

      • Whatisthatvelvet on 07/10/2023 - 13:55

        ah thanks

        • wavesgreen on 07/10/2023 - 15:07

          They get sent from Chullora so Sydney Metro is generally quicker.

  • frankdonca on 07/10/2023 - 15:29

    my last activation is still in progress after two help and support online chat and waited for 30 hours. I need to buy at least 6 more $2 profit sims ( and hoping that everything goes well) to breakeven.

    Very interesting gambling game.

    • wavesgreen on 07/10/2023 - 18:09
      +1

      Yeah I've had this happen twice now in the last 3(?) months. I activate a bunch of sims, get successful activation emails then error Something Went Wrong. Talk to chat they say one of the activations is still pending and stopping any further activations, they raise a ticket with IT, a few days later I get a (duplicate) successful activation email for one of the sims in that bunch. Then I can go about activating sims again.

      • Zeee on 07/10/2023 - 21:30

        do you use your real identity to order for every sim, like real name and dob?

        • Happyday2014 on 08/10/2023 - 07:40

          I think so . It requires drivers license or Medicare card.

          • Zeee on 08/10/2023 - 09:24

            @Happyday2014: Nice. So same identity can order couple of sims.

  • Happyday2014 on 07/10/2023 - 16:31

    how many SIM cards can I active with boost ?

    • mkowarkski on 07/10/2023 - 22:35

      I have seen in another post it is 35 SIM

  • issachar on 08/10/2023 - 09:25

    does it have to be activated under the name of person ordering for the cashback to be confirmed?

    Oh sigh, back to

    SORRY, SOMETHING WENT WRONG
    We’re sorry but we’re experiencing technical issues. Please try again later.

    again. Has no problems for months, then suddenly started working again a couple of months ago. Now unable to buy again.

    • wavesgreen on 08/10/2023 - 16:09

      Did you mean "Has problems for months"?

  • greenjay on 08/10/2023 - 17:48

    Daft question I know but do you OzB's add data to this plan? By the fourth recharge the 65GB drops to 35GB (@$45/28 days). It'll only take me a fortnight to use that up - even if I've been banking the data from the first three months.
