Belong is by far the best telecom to deal with

“Amazing again with a fast fix to my stupidity and service staff available on the phone. I am surprised at the mid range rating here but think that is an indictment of the generally poor service in the industry in Australia. Belong is by far the best telecom to deal with. Sure there have been some let downs but overall Belong systems, service, and speed is way beyond that of all the other telcos I have/had accounts with.”

-Bean Counter, Trustpilot Reviews

I’ve never had a problem with Belong

“I’ve never had a problem with Belong.

I love the top up deal & love the fact they don’t automatically keep giving me data when I run low, leaving me in control. I received a $600 bill from another company that automatically tops you up when you’re below 2 gigs. I love Belong!”

Their prices are super reasonable compared with the bigger players

“I joined Amaysim in 2012 and am a very happy customer. Their prices are super reasonable compared with the bigger players, it’s pretty reliable and I’ve always found the customer service guys respond quickly if there’s ever a problem (which is rare).

I’ve encouraged my family and a couple of friends to move to them and none have opted to leave, which says it all I think. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.”

-Debbie, Trustpilot Reviews

Their service has always been first class

“I have been an Amaysim mobile customer for some 10 years now, and their service has always been first class. During this covid-19 pandemic, they have repeatedly increased my data limit without any request from me, which has made working from home so much more convenient.

Great customer service approach, well done.”

By far on the top shelf of mobile phone companies

“Moose is by far on the top shelf of mobile phone companies. The service is outstanding and I would honestly say the best. The fact that they do not hide their phone number down the bottom on their website says it all. And when you call you speak to someone who actually cares and wants to help. Please from my personal experience and opinion there are only 2 incredibly good customer service focused phone companies and they are both very very good but moose wins.”

-John Berrington, Google Reviews

By far the most affordable SIM out there

“Always been easy to talk to and never had any issues. By far the most affordable SIM out there, and I like knowing they’re a local team 😊 Highly recommend”
