Service

Poor customer service. Was made to download this app to change mobile number ownership. Customer rep told me to change the phone number. Took 20 minutes of him complaining for it not being able to be completed on the app. Poor service more education is needed. When i said i would need a supervisor he magically was competent.

Slow

It's pathetic just a slow version of Telstra the price difference isn't worth the frustration caused by slow internet connection just go get Telstra instead and avoid a headache.

Redesign

This app needs a major redesign, it’s lacking features and the app features aren’t even native to the app it’s using webpages in the app.

Missing mobile towers

Love the service and very happy the prices haven’t changed for a while, but I’ve moved and the Telstra tower near me isn’t compatible with my belong sim, leaving me in a pretty big dead spot. Very sad but understand I’m probably the only person using belong on that tower (booligal tower)

Patchy mobile coverage inner city

I switched from Telstra to Belong to save money bc it’s the same network. While that may be true the experience was completely different. I couldn’t access apps in bondi junction, maps dropped out in Earlwood. Total shambles. I switched back 2 weeks later. Don’t recommend

The internet speed has been extremely slow

The internet speed has been extremely slow at night for the past few weeks, almost impossible to connect, so I've decided to quit.

Top up data limit

“Belong’s pricing is great and the connection is generally reliable, but the 5 GB top-up limit can be frustrating if you use a lot of data.” Wish they have more options but overall it’s a very good provider

Everything just works

Nothing fancy. Everything just works. Love how easy Belong makes it to manage my multiple Mobile and NBN services.

horrible and slow

slow service, just horrible horrible. I think they’re deleting bad reviews

Love Belong!

Love this app - just like Belong services, it’s very simple and easy to use!

Easy peasy

It’s a simple-to-use app that lets me check how much data I’ve got banked (woot!) and early share some with my friends who need a little bump.

Response from developer

Disappointed

We have been using Belong for over four years. Internet reception is slowed down during midday and evening! 🔥🔥 I was $45 mobile plan plus $5 (calls and texts to 30 destinations), and with my partner's $19 mobile plan, we shared data. Do you know?! The basic mobile plan was $15 for 5GB/month. 🙄🙄 New plan and data - $21 Mobile Plan 7GB/month Current plan and data - $19 Mobile Plan 5GB/month. Seriously we don't need it! Bye 👋👋

Utter garbage

Useless customer service that instead of just answering your queries force you to ‘confirm your account’ over and over. Their mobile service is also generally lousy and their international roaming is infinitely worse - it’s true that most telcos are dreadful but this organisation is even worse.

Reliable app and has improved

Since I have been back with Belong I have noticed a huge improvement with the belong app. Service is great in the areas it covers on the Telstra wholesale network.
