  tbh i dont really use the plan at all, i just need to keep that number.

  Amaysim is on optus but $10 a year and they also have esim if you want it

  If the Amaysim $10/yr payg(above) isn't suitable, you could still use that to cheaply park your number whilst you look for a suitable and cheap deal.

    good idea. ive got a secondary amaysim esim number for dealing with real estate agent clowns, but its brilliant how paying nothing and staying active for a year… went with kogan $5 esim to buy me a month.

  im going to say this i was with Boost for a while till i got that 12-mo telstra deal

  they actually have a good service - i was 'fed up' with Optus i probably would stick within the Telstra Network - perhap Aldi would be similar

    yeh agreed. i think they've scaled their plans up a bit too much $-wise for my needs, but the network is solid against anything i've prev used.

  As you've left this to the last day, your only options are;
  1) Recharge
  2) Go buy a SIM pack for another carrier/MVNO and Port out to them permanently (Woolies Mobile and ALDI both resell the Telstra Wholesale service)
  3) as per 2, but only do that for a period then port back in on the Boost $180 "new customer" SIM once you've received it.

  Note that Boost have access to the Full Telstra Network, the rest resell Telstra Wholesale which is Telstra's competitor to Optus, they gimp the coverage to roughly match that of Optus.

  If you just want to delay making a decision you can also do a 28 day boost recharge rather than a 12 month one.

  Also if you really have minimal use, look at telstra pre paid casual, $35 for 6 months, full network coverage like Boost, but only 700MB of data per year and limited calls.
  Can definitely save money, but Boost at ~$20 per month and effectively unlimited is not a lot to pay to not have to worry.
  I've seen claims that spam filtering on Telstra/Boost is better than some other carriers, which sounds worth paying for if true.

    good to know, that sounds pretty solid. hopefully i can get my work phone sorted in the next month or two, and that'll take care of my data usage and let me have a bare bones personal.

  You can do nothing. Your number can still receive phone calls and texts for 6months before Boost disconnects your number from their network.

    really? thats handy to know… i need to port out & back in on a discounted boost sim i believe, which ive just done (off to kogan $5 for a month).

    sadly boosts prepaid plans are now more costly than my needs, but i really dont like optus/voda quality… so will probably have to persist in staying on top of getting these yearly discounted boost sims in the short term

      Yeah I was looking for something cheaper. Kogan was the cheapest but it's kogan. I started when it was $150 or $12.50 a month, basically nothing.

  If you are only keeping your number, why do you need to port at all?
  Boost will keep your number without plan for 6 months .

  Decide what you want to do then.
