Hi Shaun
Thanks for your response mate . I have already emailed support but have not received response yet . So I have no other way to contact belong ?. I have no options now to fix this .? I cant resolve this online or by phone . It's a very simple to fix . If belong site and app were running good there would be no problem . You might need to update and fix site and belong app since you can't talk to a human

If you've sent us a message, you should have received a reference number and an estimated reply time. Due to COVID-19 our call centres aren't open at the moment but we're online, working really hard to respond to all our customers inquiries. Thanks for flagging this issue with us, I've raised this with our tech team. If you're unable to upload the documents using the app, can you try doing it via web browser? -Shaun

Scootermanasked

Hey, I'm paying for 30Mb/s with an average of 25Mb/s in evenings.... How come I'm getting less than about 7 and often as low as 1.6Mb/s? Why don't you have some way available to me to make a complaint? Your phone line is unattended because of the Corona virus? I want to be given credit for the last 3 or 4 weeks that I haven't been able to get online.

Hi I just signed up for unlimited NBN with belong and received a free $80 credit sim? Am I able to activate the sim and use the credit then deactivate the sim? Just need internet while I’m waiting for my internet to be connected up at home

BelongBelong

Hi Kate. Welcome to the Belong family! Yes you can activate a mobile account to use the $80 credit, and then disconnect the service once it's all used up. You'll need to raise a support request via the app to cancel the account.

P.S. If you have any questions about your broadband service, flick us a message here: We're always happy to help. -Shaun

Glenna V.asked

My choices
US, EU, AU
My cell phone to buy for friend overseas. What are these meanings? EU,AU,US?

1 answer
Belong
BelongBelong

Not quite sure what you're asking Glenna, what's this in regards to?
Were you asking if we offer international calls?

With the context you've given us so far I'd say US stands for the United States of America, EU stands for the European Union and AU stands for Australia.

Can't say for certain that's correct until we get more context :( -Lexi

Hi Krin, our SIM cards purchased from a store come with $10, $25 and $40 credit on them. Just a heads up, you're not paying for the SIM but the credit. Sadly, we don't offer any deals - but we do have an introduce a friend promo.

P.S. When you sign up, you're creating an account that acts like a subscription. You'll be charged automatically each billing cycle until you decide to cancel the service. -Shaun

It sounds like you might have your message to text feature disabled on your phone. When the feature is disabled it does extend your ring time but it will play a similar message to what you've described when you don't answer the phone.

We can re-activate the message to text feature for you so the message won't play, just create a support request through this link here so our mobile support team can give you a hand--> https://bit.ly/2S1aNvD. -Lexi

Not 100% certain I know what you're referring to there Brian, were your friends getting hearing that message when they try to ring you?

If they are it sounds like you might have your message to text feature disabled on your phone. When that feature is disabled it does extend your ring time but it will play a similar message to what you described when you don't answer the phone.

There could be a couple of reasons behind that so we'd have to run through some troubleshooting to get to the bottom of what's going on.

Please run through the troubleshooting steps listed in this article here --> https://bit.ly/2XTfTOy, hopefully, that gets your data working again :)

If it doesn't do the trick click the green 'create support request' button to get in touch with our mobile technical support team. Hope that helps! -Lexi

Telstra restrict the number of mobile towers you can access when using Belong, it may be that In your area Telstra are restricting the towers that are close to you home, therefore you have no access once you go outside and lose your wifi connection. If you have a contact that is with Telstra, Optus, Vodaphone ask them to test their connection to mobile data

Lance

Thanks Peter. I will try again later from a different location to see if the tower thing can fix it. Regards Lance

Spurt

Spurtasked

Hi, I am a belong customer with NBN. We are moving on Monday to our new place in the same suburb.
When I connected with belong, I was told that NBN was available at our new address. I have tried using the app to move our NBN to our new address however, the app says that NBN is not available at that address. I believe it is available due existing NBN router at the address.
Please help.

BelongBelong

Hi Spurt, there's been some changes to which homes we can and can't connect to recently so your new home might be affected by that :(

If your home is affected by that change, when you enter your new address it will show you the message 'Sorry, we’re temporarily unable to provide a Belong nbn service at your address'.

If that's not the message you received, reach out to us through our support page here -->https://www.belong.com.au/support to get in contact with our support teams.

Once you're there scroll down to the bottom of the page, after a minute or so a 'help' button will pop up on the bottom right of the screen. Select that button and then click the words 'get in touch' it'll guide you through the rest from there :) -Lexi

banking data how does that work

Hey RBD, any leftover data from one month rolls into the next. So if you find yourself not using much some months, but need a bit more later, you can use the spare. It's automatic on all our mobile plans too! -Taylor

No complaint about Belong’s plan, it’s their Customer Service that appears to be none existent & their contact phone goes to a voice mail stating their Customer Service Centre is closed due to Covid 19. I am now up to my 6th email stating my issue is “resolved” which is incorrect. The response support appears to be an automatic response email that does nothing, very disappointing.

Hi Elisabeth. We know that a solid home internet & mobile phone connection is more important now than ever.
