> No eSim as far as I am aware According to their blog, eSim became available yesterday.

FWIW, only Telstra and MVNO's using Telstra offer WiFi calling when O/S. Optus, Vodafone and their MVNO's geo-block it.

I was at my local Coles (Chisholm, ACT) today and noticed that the Lebara $24.90 starter packs are on special for $6.

Ah, looks like the 35¢/month offer ended a couple of weeks ago. Sorry about that. $1/month still isn't too bad though.

Colin2905 commented on Porting an IP Phone No to a Free Provider
Cheapest option is probably Crazytel, at 35¢/month. More info can be found in the Telephony section of the Whirlpool forums.

Yes, you need to send an SMS from Vodafone and their MVNO's, but it'll let you do it without any credit in this instance.
