365 Day SIM with 310GB data (165GB + 145GB activation bonus) and unlimited calls & text to standard Australian numbers. Activate by 7 July 2025. Future recharges include 165GB.
Comes with bonus $35 Costco Shop gift card that will be emailed to the membership holder. Can take up to 3 weeks to receive gift card.
Available for purchase in-store only.
Telstra shitty customer service and system problems, priceless for everything else there is mastercard
to be honest, I would prefer telstra customer service over optus any day. Optus easily gets the bottom for customer service.
Anyway you have to go for the eggs which Coles Woolis don’t have.
Drake's and IGA's around SA have cheaper eggs.
700gm cartons for $6.
$12 for 30 eggs is cheap enough during the shortage and Costco doesn’t jack the price. Now I go big shopping at Costco and small shopping at Aldi. I don’t trust Coles woolis anymore.
How long do I've to activate it?
https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/prepaid-mobiles/350…
310GB (165GB + 145GB activation bonus) on activation only with 12 months expiry when you activate on a Pre-Paid Mobile Plan. Future recharges include 165GB. Activate by 7 July 2025
Could you price beat at OW?
Not anymore
No longer can. OW changed their policy.
Damn!
The Gravy train is over 😱
You couldn’t anyway because Officeworks don’t have the same deal having a bonus $35 shop card which is not identical!!!!!
okay sorry!!!!!!!!!
Would this be for the full Telstra 5G network? Might be good to change from my aldi $29 plan at that price!
Yes. Full network
Sure is 5G. I get 400mbs in certain areas
Can this be used to recharge an existing Telstra pre-paid number?
Last time I tried, you could not. I had to port out and then activate the Telstra SIM with port in.
Damn just after buying another block with Boost.
Does this work with iwatch sim sharing ?
No. No prepaid plans offer number sharing with a wearable device.
Thanks OP. Was about to jump to boost. Just picked up line from store now.
Silly question, my boost mobile ends in a few werks. I assume I can jump onto this deal even though they're on the same network?
@jeimuzu, I just jumped from boost to woolworths (which is also the Tel$tra network) and it was no problem.
Awesome, thanks for confirming @copperboy
I did this last week, no issues
Thanks for reconfirming @BargainMe
I should be able to port from prepaid Boost to this Telstra without any issues, right?
So how do you claim the $35 shop card? Is it sent automatically to your registered email?
that is what they told me, may take up to 20 days.
Correct.
Does the $35 shop card only go to Costco members email, or to the owner of the sim purchaser once activated?
Update.
Just got 3x prepaid cards, the expiry date on the cards are 12/11/2026. For the bonus data, activate the service by 07/07/2025
Lastly, the $35 bonus shop card will go the email of the registered Costco members account.
I also bought 3x about 3 weeks ago. I activated two yesterday. How and when do I get the $35 bonus shop card?
Anyone in Melbourne that can help me get one? Message me.
DM me.
Will see what I can do after 16 June. Currently away.
how you gonna activate the sim without the physical sim??
I still have 100GB of Boost data left my, myBoost expired on in January 2026.
if already with telstra how do you get this deal?
so costco went to the dark side that being telstra.
I'm assuming this won't work for gift card shoppers like me? Lol
Not being facetious but how is this a good deal when you can get 300GB for $159 from Kogan with the usual unlimited calls and texts.
https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/kogan-mobile-365-day-prepaid-pl…
5G and better reception in some area, may be?
Kogan I believe is Vodafone, rather than Telstra
Again, as mentioned in other posts, the isp can give you 1000GB but less presence network or throttle control is meaningless, so you choose yours
For me, i tried to leverage my work sim using Voda, and i am so regretting about this decision, the network is not even working when you're travelling on train or in the centre
In my experience
Kogan is fine in very built up areas, even faster than telstra.
It rapidly falls away in regional areas that'll have you wishing you spend the extra $100 just so you can use your data whilst on holidays
I assume this deal is as good as boost or even better? I am with boost but reception is bad in where I live, cut off call all the time. not sure if that is due to Volte wifi phone call. as my internet is HFC it has hops.
Does anyone have any recommendations for customer service f Telstra? How is the network and Is it stable?
Unfortunately, everyone has different opinions on both of these areas. Regarding the networks, all of them have black spots. Telstra has the best rural coverage of all of them. It is an individual case for everyone. Might be best to buy a cheap SIM card and see how the coverage is in your area first and see how reliable it is.
It’s a good deal, but the sims are speed capped. Says it on the pack.
Apparently it's 150mbps max
coles optus deal was 250mbps
That's good, in my case Optus sucks, Telstra I can get about 100Mbps so the limit isn't that much of a problem.
@zacsg1: It depends on where you live or work normally.
my boost suck at home and cut off, but everywhere is fine.
When you call customer service, it's a nightmare.
i m not sure, may be optus in my area is better?
@nng526: Yer I literally can't get reception with Optus at my work vs Telstra is fine, home is 50/50 but in the CBD Optus is actually better.
It's so up and down who ever you are with it seems.
@zacsg1: CBD is better for all providers I assume, lol
I get min 150+ or 250+ out side with boost even they claim they cap the speed of 150, I guess may be it is off peak test.
So everyone knows it is a limit of 3 per person and the gift card will take up to 30 days to arrive.
Is 7 july activation for bonus data
And is it a 365 activation before the sim expires
Does these have international calls aswell
I chatted with Telstra. It seems it's the same plan as their one that costs $350. It comes with international minutes. This is where he sent me>>> https://www.telstra.com.au/help/critical-information-summari…
This is an epic deal and I’ve been waiting for a deal like this. Thanks for posting!
i am planning to go to Costco Auburn later today to buy this. Anyone knows if it still got stock?
The wife just went to get some - sold out
I know I'm a bit late to this comment, but in case it helps anyone, fully restocked at Costco Auburn. Went last night, heaps available.
Costco Perth Airport had loads on display.
Only one even somewhat close to me is CostCo Auburn, I take it once sold out, most likely they won replenish for a while? I need to get one in a week or less if possible.
Still plenty available in Crossroads just picked one up
thanks, my boost was expiring on the 25th so i already had to get one. I got it from the other telstra deal.
Still waiting for the $35 gift card , anyone else?
Yeah me too, still waiting for the gift card. Do we need to contact Telstra for this?
Got mine via email within a day or two!
Is it goes to your Costco membership email? My Telstra plan was activated 10 days ago
@4ubest: I bought 2 cards 3 weeks ago and nothing. I activated them this week. I then went back to Costco last night and bought a third. I asked at the checkout how to get the bonus $35 shop card and they said I had to call Telstra. Then when I activated the card at the service desk, they told me to contact Telstra help desk and they will sort it. Then as I was leaving the store, the door attendent told me all the information on how to get the Costco credit was on the SIM package…which of course it was not.
So I'm still here waiting for someone to clarify how I get the $35 shop cards for 3x SIMS…
@Lasher: They asked for my email address when I collected the. SIM card from the merchandise counter. Got the shop card in the email 7 days later.
How does Telstra prepaid compare to boost prepaid in terms of speed, network priority etc, any difference?
The problem is when you go in store you are going to buy more than just this.
