Fingers crossed this isn’t their last discounted offer in the next few weeks, as I’m relying on being able to buy renew my kids’ ‘large’ plans that were 50% off in mid-Nov last year (https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=164&topicid=310687). No way they need 32GB a month!

I don't think it will be, considering there is Labour weekend this week. There may be other offers.

Very tempting (the last offer on the Extra Large was too), I just wish they'd offer eSIM like in Australia.

What's the porting experience like? I guess the question is how long does it typically take?

When I ported over to Kogan three months ago it took two hours for my number to port over.

Any downsides to Kogan from your experience?

It's not possible to call overseas (except Australia) without using an international pack. This is not unique to Kogan, but it is still annoying. I'd love to be able to make a quick call to somewhere except Australia and just use casual rates for that call. Grizzle grizzle moan moan.

 

Apart from that, everything works just fine.

How about data throttling?

I haven't noticed any, but most of my data usage is not that bandwidth-intensive. Tethering works fine as well.

Add on data is extremely expensive if you run out:

https://koganmobile.co.nz/add-ons/data-add-ons/

 


(might buy $5 starter pack to have on standby)

 

Used to have no reply's to short code's, but got that ability recently.

It uses Vodafone's network so will have the same strengths and weaknesses. (i.e. minimal coverage inside kelly taltons cafe, where two degrees has strong coverage).

Somewhat limited roaming options compared to the larger carriers (only two options, and not much date on either).

Roaming required a bunch of setting changes to get it to work (that said, the support was great to get it running).

No international calling without a pack. (excl Aust).

That is worth keeping in mind. I used to be with Kogan and this is what pushed me back to other providers -- I ended up spending more on the extra data packs than I saved on the main plans (even at 50% off). Either just over-provision to higher plans if possible -- or perhaps have a second SIM with a provider with cheap data options you can tap into when you run out of data on your Kogan SIM.
