thecatsgoolies: Warehouse mobile is not really great value for low usage

Or high usage, or occasional usage. Not sure what their target is to be honest.

I did pick up some $4 sim cards that came with 500 megs on them to just chuck in the phone when I run out of data, no expiration listed on them for that data unactivated and its a really cheap way of getting another 500 megs which will tide me over a few days if needed.

There was a cardboard display with them in it at the warehouse by the phones, Had a bit of a look thru for good numbers but they were pretty much all from the same 3 ranges of numbers which were not very nice ones.

I think you need to recharge 10$ to get 500MB data plus 2$ credit. No inbuilt data in new simcard.

You misread the banner on box.

Nope

Not too impressed with warehouse mobile so far.

Everytime I have stuck another telco;s sim into a phone, it has either worked, or I have got a SMS with the APN information I needed.

This just SMS'd me my number and a link to their website. Reeeeeally useful without data to read the page.

They expect you on warehouse wifi 

Ported my 2deg no to warehouse sim card. 500MB data n few sms n calls is all I need. Why spend 6-9$ extra for something I don't need, that carryover thing is a trap to keep recharging for more than you need. If any time I need more data I can surely recharge it. Over the year that data gonna expire if not used. 

Until you forget your monthly topup and lose your credit. I prefer to make topping up a 4-5 monthly thing and not really worry about it to the point where I need to schedule it 30 days after I last did it.
