Circles.Life customers will start being migrated to amaysim from March 24, according to emails seen by WhistleOut.
amaysim has begun emailing Circles.Life customers regarding the transition, as well as providing new plan details. All Circles.Life customers are receiving a "welcome offer" that is valid for their first 12 recharges, as well as a mobile plan that they will be moved to after the welcome offer expires. These offers seem to be personalised to each customer.
For example, one customer on a $15 Circles.Life plan with 6GB was been offered a 70GB plan for $10 per 28-day prepaid recharge. After 12 recharges, the plan will switch to a 18GB plan for $15 per 28-day recharge.
Another customer was been offered 120GB for $25 per 28-day recharge, which will then become a 55GB for $30 per 28-day recharge.
Notably, the plans that customers will be moved to after their initial 12 recharges are better than amaysim's current in-market offers. amaysim has a $22 recharge that only offers 10GB of data, and its $30 recharge has 55GB.
Circles.Life customers are also being offered 100GB of bonus data for their data bank.
The big change is customers being migrated to amaysim will be billed on a 28-day basis, rather than monthly as with Circles.Life. This means customers who choose to stick with amaysim after the switch will pay for their phone plan 13 times per year, rather than 12.
Not all Circles.Life customers will be migrated from March 24. While March 24 is the most common date WhistleOut has seen, some customers have received emails with a March 26 migration date.
WhistleOut reached out to amaysim for clarification, but did not hear back in time.
Customers will receive an amaysim username and password after being migrated to their amaysim plan. Customers won't need a new SIM card and their phone number will stay the same.
Circles.Life customers being migrated to amaysim will get access to features like 5G (on recharges worth at least $30 per 28 days) and unlimited data banking when moved over. Circles' mobile plans are currently 4G only, and only allow up to 500GB of data banking.
Circles.Life customers obviously also have the option of switching to a different provider before their migration date. These are the most popular mobile plans with WhistleOut users this week:
amaysim announced that it had acquired Circles.Life's customer base at the end of January. Circles.Life will eventually cease to operate as a mobile brand in Australia, but it is still accepting new customers.
