Pre Paid Account Set Up
To set up your Pre Paid service you first need to select either the “ Set & Forget” “Monthly Allowance” recharge option You can change your recharge option at any time to suit your individual needs.
“Set & Forget” Auto Recharge
This is the easiest way to keep your phone “charged” with credit and ready to talk. You are in control by setting your recharge amount to suit your individual needs. The minimum recharge amount is $30.00.
For example: Let’s say you have chosen a recharge amount of $60. When your credit balance goes below $10, we will send you an SMS/text to let you know that you are low on credit and we will then automatically charge your credit card with your nominated recharge amount of $60. This means your total credit then goes up to $70. We will send you an SMS/text when the recharge transaction is complete. Again, when you have used your credit and your balance is down to $10 we will SMS/text you to remind you that you are getting low and we will charge your credit card with another $70. This may happen within a week or two months, depending on your how many calls you make.
You can change your recharge amount at anytime.
Monthly Allowance
With this option you can set yourself a monthly allowance (any amount over $30) and a date that you want your account to be recharged. If your account is in credit on your chosen recharge date, it will automatically “ rollover” so that you don’t lose that credit. If, however, you run out before your monthly recharge date, we will send you an SMS/text to let you know that you are getting low and give you the option of “boosting” your credit balance.
For example: You have chosen a recharge amount of $40 and a start date of the 6th February. On the 6th February your credit card will be charged to add $40 to your credit balance. On the 6th March, your credit card will again be charged $40 to boost your credit. Let’s say that in February you only used $30 of credit, this means that on the 6th March, you will have $50 call credit ($10 from February plus your recharge amount of $40). However, the next month, March, was a busy call month for you and it’s now 15th March and you have already used most of your call credit. We will send you an SMS/text to let you know that your credit has gone down to below $10 and give you the option to “boost”.
To recharge or “boost” your credit before your regular monthly recharge date, you can either: (a) recharge by sending an SMS/text reminder to (0447100298) (b) call Customer Service on 1300 665 437 between 8.00am and 10.00pm EST, or, (c) go online and manually recharge your account
In all cases, we will SMS/text you to let you know that your recharge transaction is complete.
If, for example, you let your account drop to $0, we will send you an SMS/text to remind you that you are completely out of credit. If you don’t choose to recharge your account at this point, unfortunately, your account will be suspended. While you will be able to receive incoming calls, you will not be able to make any outgoing calls. But as soon as you recharge your suspended account, you will be able to use your phone within 1 hour!, provided the transaction has taken place between 8.00am and 10.00pm EST. “Fair Play” Policy
Another advantage of Talk Down Under prepaid services is that you don’t have a time limit to use your credit. It’s yours – you paid for it and you use it when you need it! But the best news of all - with Talk Down Under, unlike other phone companies, we won’t cut you off in the middle of a call because you’ve run out of credit! That’s what we call our “Fair Play” policy. This means that while we won’t cut you off during a call if you run out of credit, when you recharge, the cost of any calls that you made when you were without credit will be automatically deducted from your recharge amount - now that’s fair!
Pre Paid Passport
When you collect or receive your SIM card you will get a Pre Paid Passport which includes all the information regarding this product. Please keep it for reference.
