Kogan is once again trying to tempt new customers to its prepaid mobile service with a heavily discounted introductory offer: swap over and you'll get your first month for $4.90.

You're able to apply this offer to any of Kogan's prepaid mobile plans, which means you can get as much as 90% off if you're after the telco's $49.90 recharge. This includes 16GB of data and unlimited talk and text. After your first month, you'll have to pay the full price for any subsequent recharge, but you're able to drop down to a lower price bracket.

This offer runs until the end of October.

When you exclude the discounted first month, Kogan's 16GB recharge is roughly on par with current marketing pricing. Major telcos will offer a similar data allowance for less, but they'll lock you into a 12 month contract. Belong Mobile offers the most comparable no contract plan, at $45 per month for 15GB with unlimited talk and text. Kogan gives you 1GB of extra data, but Belong has Telstra 4G coverage.
