VPNs for ad-blocking Over two decades later, the brand still markets itself as the antidote to Australia’s increasingly crowded and complicated mobile market, offering simple prepaid phone plans on Telstra’s 4G network with no lock-in contracts. It also offers outright refurbished phone purchases for the budget-minded. If you (or a family member) are looking to cut back on bills or simply don’t use your smartphone as much as others, Boost has a comprehensive range of plans with 28-day data rollover and long expiry recharge options to suit just about every need. There are currently five plan tiers for the popular 28-day recharge option, ranging from $20 to $70 per recharge. Like any prepaid mobile service, Boost Mobile’s low-commitment plans are a great choice for parents looking to purchase a SIM for their kids. With auto-recharge disabled, parents can have peace of mind that they aren’t going to receive a big, nasty bill when the next season of Fortnite drops. Here’s how Boost’s plans currently stack up against other popular providers on the Telstra network. You can check out the widget below for a round-up of popular plans from providers using Telstra’s mobile network. Boost Mobile also offers long expiry prepaid plans with 6 or 12-month recharges (as opposed to the usual 28-day expiry). Long expiry plans are typically the best choice for low-usage customers; smartphone users who don’t require a lot of inclusions/data and don’t want the hassle of recharging every month. If you (or a member of your family) has whipped through your allocated data amount for the month, Boost Mobile offers low-price data add-ons to get you by until it’s time to recharge again. Boost Mobile data add-ons are available at two price tiers: $5 for 1GB or $15 for 3GB. Both add-on tiers will expire 28 days after purchase (or once the additional data has been used up). The add-ons will be counted as either $5 or $15 respectively in credit. As of 13 October 2020, Boost Mobile (and Telstra as a whole) is no longer offering international roaming for prepaid plans. The telco has put this down to “platform changes” and says users can expect to regain access to international roaming around early 2022. With borders now opening up and overseas travel back on the cards, it’s something customers need to be aware of. Likewise, Boost Mobile’s customer satisfaction scores are pretty average, if not slightly on the low side. At the time of writing, it’s got a measly 2-star rating on Product Review and just 1.4-stars on Trustpilot.
Live chat support is available via the Boost Mobile website (7AM-11PM AEST, 7 days a week) and Boost Mobile App (available on iOS and Android) The Boost Mobile Facebook page Boost Mobile on Twitter (@BoostAus) You can also call Boost Mobile Australia customer support directly via 1800 100 933 (8AM-8PM AEST, 7 days a week)
This plan features unlimited standard calls and text, unlimited international calls and text to 20 countries, plus 100GB of data each month for the first three recharges before reverting to just 65GB after that point.
