Frequently Asked Questions

We're a tech co, not just a telco

Our primary business is SIM-only plans for mobile phone users. For the telco-ey stuff, we have awesome partners who sort us out. Our lightning-fast 4G network? We let the experts at Optus handle that. Meantime, we focus our time on technology to support you.

We value trust

In 2023, Circles Life achieved a significant milestone by being recognized as the most trusted telco, thanks to outstanding 5-star ratings from our customers across key areas such as Customer Service, Sign Up/Activation, Billing, Plan Flexibility, and Value for Money. Additionally, Circles Life was honored for delivering the highest levels of customer satisfaction.

We value you

While many other telcos raised their base rates in 2023 we decided not to. Why? With an increased cost-of-living causing many Aussie to go without, we didn’t think it was fair to put profits above people. We have a long history of standing up for customers when others fall short. You can read more about that here.

We value… um… value

We won’t be beaten for value. Literally. We just won “Best Postpaid Provider For Value” in the Finder Mobile Awards 2023. We were number 1 out of 30. Check out our plans and you’ll see why.

We value choice

Never phone a call centre again. We’ve built an app that gives you digital superhero powers. Everything in your account from usage data to plan changes are at your mighty, mighty fingertips. That said, if you do need help, you’ll be on a support chat within 30 seconds. Zoom!
