Book of Limbo

If you want to try a new telco at no cost, Telstra's budget brand Belong is giving away 300 SIMs with $80 of credit. That's enough to get you as much of three months of free service, assuming you opt for the provider's $25 per month plan with 20GB.

To get in on this offer, you'll need to pre-order Belong's Book of Limbo, a free book designed to keep you entertained while swapping phones and you don't have internet access (you know, assuming a phone is your only device that can get you online).

Ostensibly full of surreal memes, the Book of Limbo also contains a full copy of Alice in Wonderland for some reason, and most importantly, the SIM card on the last page. It certainly is a time. You can register to get the Book of Limbo through Belong's website.

Book of Limbo

Belong is making 300 copies of the Book of Limbo available. If you're unsuccessful, you'll be sent a free ebook instead. Naturally, the ebook version does not come with a free SIM card.

While printing 300 hardcover books may seem at odds with Belong's stance as a carbon-neutral telco, it says that the book's carbon footprint has been offset, and that pulp and paper have been only been sourced from responsible sources.

For reference, here are Belong's current SIM-only plans:
