Any member here using the Kogan mobile plans ??. Advertising $9.90 month unlimted with good data??. With boost at present and quite happy with their price but at $9.90 heaps cheaper n maybe too good to be true or am I reading it wrong ??.

Hi, just done a quick check, for me stay with boost, no real benefit for change

Just installed one in SWMBO's iPhone that has been waiting a SIM card for months. I can use all that data to download apps & updates while SWMBO practices. It'll be handy on our flying trip to Bowen next week too. I'll use it as a hot spot, if I can work out how.
By the time that I got it with fast post & for some reason, insurance, it cost me about $18 but that's OK.
I think that the low price is for one 30 day period only though.
Kogan use Vodaphone network these days, so this will be a one month deal for us. Then probably off to BOOST for the Telstra Network.
Edit
Sorry, when the Vodafone runs out we will probably switch to Aldi L $25 pack.
It includes Unlimited Calls & SMS + 2.25g Data with 30 day rollover option + 100min International and uses part of the Telstra 3G network. (97% coverage they claim) through the reseller Medion.

Be mindful of frustratingly poor reception and coverage with these cheaper carriers, I am back with Telstra after a year or two of constant signal drop outs.

The Aldi $25 pack has 3gig data now.

This is the deal that I got. Looks like a one off 30 day at that price, then $50. They sent us two sims too.
So far it works perfectly though the iphone battery seems to flatten rather quickly.
For us the Aldi $25 with 3 Gig suits us better even if its 3G & not Vodafone 4G. SWMBO only uses email & facebook so that will be fast enough & ample data.

Just upgraded our Telstra deal, $50/month, 8gig of data, $1,000 of calls & unlimited texting. The only sensible carrier for decent reception all over Australia. You get what you pay for.

Hi Aldi is on 4G now check out their plans on aldimobile.com.au there is a coverage map there as well under help & FAQ geen very good for me
I dunno yet, as I took a three day special from Dick Smith Kogan after getting a new wizz bang phone. It was just over $206-00 with a 5 GB per 30 days download offer for 12 months. That's a good offer for a newby like me.
Mind you I live in Dandenong Vic, a city area for 9 months of the year so reception is great. I took advice from my brother who is with Vodafone them for the last 4 years with no problems.
Only on it for 3 weeks and maps, and all internet, Skype is sound. No worse than aldi which was also good.
Country use is unknown as yet but my biggest concern is mapping and I have it covered with an excellent Garmin GPS.

Telstra.
Mine is $30pm. $700 calls $200 O\S calls. 3 gig of Data.
Di is Simplicity. $30 per 60 days. ALL calls 15c per min. Here and O'S We do a lot of O\S.
I just transfer my $30 (Credit me 2 u) every month, then she can use that as 15c calls.
She just forgot to recharge. Again. Lost over $230 of MY cash credit. Again.
Wish she'd do Auto recharge.
For average usage. we find this the best. I never hardly use ph. Madam does.
$90 for 2 phones, 2 months. ($60 me, $30 her) $1400 calls ($400 O\S calls, 6 gig data. I use WiFi Cloud a bit. MY ph.
Plus $60 my "credit to her" gives 15c per min calls worldwide. HER ph.
