Frequently asked questions

We offer two types of Pre-Paid plans, both with a range of SIM starter kits to choose from. Which plan suits you depends on how much you use your mobile phone.

Our Pre-Paid Complete plan is great value for everyday use, with included data, data banking, and unlimited calls and texts in Australia to standard Australian numbers with each recharge.

Our Pre-Paid Long Life Plus plan is a good option if you don’t use your phone all that often. Calls, texts and data are charged at pay-as-you-go rates, per minute, text message or megabyte.
We now offer two easy ways to recharge online. You can choose to recharge your service now, or you can choose to have a digital recharge voucher emailed to you for later use (available to selected recharges only).

A digital recharge voucher gives you the flexibility to pay for your recharge at a time that suits you and save it for when you need it. Or you can buy a voucher as a gift for someone else.
Most current and later generation major smartphones use a nano SIM card. If your older phone uses a different SIM card and you need a new SIM card, visit your local Telstra store or dealer and request a SIM replacement. It is free, and your local store assistant should be able to get the order sorted for you in a matter of minutes. Just make sure you take some ID with you so they can confirm you're the owner of the service.
