Suricate on Telstra $13 Pre-Paid Mobile Plan 7-Day 3GB (+ 2GB Activation Bonus) for $1 Delivered @Telstra

You'd think so, wouldn't you? I haven't had it happen to me (yet, touch wood), but I have heard of instances where Telstra / Boost starter…

Yes. If you've not played this game before, it helps to know that Boost ID's and Telstra ID's use the same login credentials. When it comes…

There'll be an expiry date on the back of the pack. If it's old stock, it could be less than 1 year. If it's newer stock, probably 1 to 2…

Officially, Telstra is 6 months. (I've had one or two last longer. Never worked out why.)

jason andrade on Breeder's Choice Cat Litter 30L 2 for $45 (Members Price) + Delivery ($0 C&C / $49 Spend to Metro) @ Petbarn

My order came to a bit under $200 by the time I added some cat food. That got me a $10 voucher, to be used within 28 days.

Works out to $22.50 per bag, for those not so good at maths. Not quite as good as the $21 deal in April from Swaggle, but still not too…

Purchase through TopCashback. Look in the Deals > Mobile section.

Colin2905 commented on Pre-Paid Sim Comparison in EOFY Sales
My suggestion: Buy a new 12 month Boost starter pack (eg; $255 - $50 cashback = $205) and a $2 Telstra SIM (so, $207 all-up). When your…

Since Lyca moved from using the Telstra Wholesale network to the TPG / Vodafone network, the coverage should be identical to Lebara. (Data…

Please let us know how it goes. Maybe the CSR actually knew what they were talking about, and not just making stuff up.

I wonder if yesterday being a Public Holiday in most states and territories had something to do with it?

To the best of my knowledge, only Telstra (and Boost, I've also read) $2 SIM cards can be activated without adding a plan and paying more…

I just read that the cheapest plan (that you can change to after the first month) from 1/7/25 will be $25 for 10GB.

Colin2905 commented on What's The Cheapest Way to Get a Telstra ID?
Activate a $2 Telstra SIM, scroll down past the plans offered, and select "Continue without recharging". (Generally good for 6 months…

Colin2905 commented on amaysim Starter Kit Activation Expiry Date?
The wording on the back of the pack is 12 months from the date of purchase, so you'll be fine. (Beyond 12 months, YMMV I guess.)

Not exactly, as it was a while ago. But it can't have been too onerous; it's the painful ones that tend to leave an impression.

If you started with a $2 SIM, you'd still have to activate it on As You Go (and pay another $10, minimum) first, before you can switch…
