FAQs
Can I transfer my mobile number to a MATE mobile plan?
When you join a MATE mobile plan, you always have the option to keep your current mobile number. Simply select “I want to transfer an existing number” during the activation process and wait for confirmation from us by email or SMS before continuing with your plan. It’s as easy as that!
What mobile network coverage does MATE use?
We use the Telstra Wholesale Network. By using Telstra’s network, which covers over 98.8% of Australia, our mobile services are an accessible and reliable option for Aussies from any region.
Can I get a 5G mobile plan?
To be eligible for a 5G mobile plan, you need to have a 5G-compatible device and live in the Telstra Wholesale 5G coverage area (approximately 75% of Australia). See our coverage map to discover if you can join some of the best mobile phone plans in Australia.
Can I get a mobile plan without a MATE internet service?
Absolutely! With MATE, you can join any service with zero catch. However, if you want to save expenses, consider bundling your mobile plan with our nbn service and get $10 off your monthly bill.
When will my MATE SIM card be sent to me?
When you sign up for a SIM-only plan, your SIM card will be delivered in the mail ASAP. It can take 2-10 business days to reach your doorstep.
Which MATE mobile plans are eSIM compatible?
Every MATE mobile plan is eSIM-compatible. This allows you to choose between ordering a SIM card or an eSIM plan. If you’re unsure how an eSIM works or don’t know what you’d prefer, here are some reasons why you should consider opting for an eSIM:
- An eSIM is not at risk of damage or loss: there is no physical chip that you have to buy and keep in your phone.
- You can start your plan immediately: There is no waiting for your SIM to come in the mail; once you select your plan, you can activate it then and there.
- More affordable: You don’t need to keep purchasing new SIM cards when changing your mobile plans.
