Hey all,

I noticed Vivid Wireless have the christmas deal going again (they've just changed it to 'Back-to-School'),$19 gets you a USB device(RRP $59),2GB data,delivery and for $10 more a signal booster(RRP $29).

Some info from Vivid's site..

  • Offer valid till 31 March 2013.
  • Modems may be added to an existing vividwireless service for an additional device charge of $10 per month per modem.
  • Limit one USB modem per new customer.
  • Offer available while stocks last.
  • Bonus data is valid for 30 days from the date of activation or until allowance used, whichever occurs first.
  • We reserve the right to remove this offer any time. Pre-paid data terms and conditions apply.
  • Any unused bonus data can be rolled over provided customers purchase and activate a new pre-paid voucher before the expiry of their bonus data.

    After using the 2gb, can i use another sim card in this device, is it unlock?

    • T_double_U on 25/01/2013 - 21:29

      They don't use a sim card so it's effectively locked to their network.

    • BloodSail Admiral on 25/01/2013 - 21:56

      it's not lock, they already mentioned in their page "Flexible. Once you’ve used up your 2GB of bonus data, you can choose to go on to a month-to-month plan or pre-paid plan. Or not. You keep the modem, and there are no lock-in contracts, no strings attached."

      • T_double_U on 25/01/2013 - 22:40

        Locked as in you can't use the device with another provider.

  • Davo1111 on 25/01/2013 - 21:30

    interesting coverage. Looking like it's running on the unwired network?

    • tulkn on 25/01/2013 - 23:43

      I'm pretty sure they are the same company

  • isdnman on 25/01/2013 - 21:43

    Limited coverage. So definitely check coverage before buy.
    And they use Wimax so you can't use the dongle on another network.

    • GregFiona on 25/01/2013 - 21:48

      +1 Guys double check coverage before you buy. 2224 Nsw is covered only in the water!???

    • T_double_U on 25/01/2013 - 22:42

      True but Vivid have a pretty good return policy 'We offer a 14 day money back guarantee (MBG) if you cannot use our service due to poor coverage.'

  • BloodSail Admiral on 25/01/2013 - 22:00

    Hi! Rep, How will i get the free shipping ?

    • happychild100 on 25/01/2013 - 22:05

      That's a referral tag not a rep tag.

    • T_double_U on 25/01/2013 - 22:46

      If you go through to checkout the device drops to $9 to compensate for the $10 delivery charge so $19 all up.

  • brongz on 25/01/2013 - 22:05

    used their service. faster than 3G (but don't know if compared to telstra 4G now). no simcard, so cannot be unlocked.

  • ozduck on 26/01/2013 - 02:20

    JFI, Optus bought the the unwired/vivid wireless early last year to use the spectrum for 4G-LTE network so the WiMax network will be switched off sooner or later and these devices will be nothing more than a piece of junk. Other than that 2GB/$19 doesn't seem like a great deal.

  • ozduck on 26/01/2013 - 02:42

    Sounds unfair to people who grabbed it as a good bargain. See

    $1/gb postpaid, but Pre-paid still in a race w/ itself, $49 ultimately going nowhere.

  • johnsonweed on 05/02/2013 - 12:52

    I heard that the connection and speed are terrible in Bentley

    • T_double_U on 05/02/2013 - 14:25

      Probably,how well it works is dependent on signal strenth and congestion,if you're one of the unlucky ones return it within 14 days and get your money back.I have two friends with Vivid now,one in greenwood and one in Claremont and no complaints last i heard.

      My connection speed http://www.speedtest.net/result/2486758170.png not the greatest but for $75pm for unlimited it's pretty good value.

      • johnsonweed on 05/02/2013 - 18:49

        I feel sorry that all my friends are staying in Bentley.
        Read the complants below, the service usually is good in the first month. my comments are
        1) don't stay in Bentley
        2) don't commit with the 12 month plan.
        if you really want to use vivid

        • T_double_U on 05/02/2013 - 19:09

          All valid points,i've been with Vivid for years and paid $149 for the USB modem so i could be on a month to month setup which i think made all the difference as it moved the balance of power back my way so they know i can leave at any time.where as if you get stuck on a contract for 12 or 24 months they can treat you however they want after the first month and you can do very little about it.

          If you're in an area that doesn't have a history of poor performance with Vivid then it's worth a shot you may be pleasantly suprised,however if it's crap return the device within 14 days and get a full refund,if you're happy with the performance use up the 2GB then go on a month to month plan and get a month free if using a referrals email then if it goes to shit after that move to another provider.

        • daver on 05/02/2013 - 21:03

          $49/6gb, 30days;
          [8.16/gb] 2013.

        • T_double_U on 05/02/2013 - 21:12

          The medium range data plans are pretty terrible value but if you're a minimal user the 2GB for $19pm is okay value but the unlimited plan for $79pm is outstanding value in my books.

        • daver on 05/02/2013 - 21:37

          mine books ~ 80/1Mbps*500gb

          {v 8/3Mbps*∞}, but I get you.
