If you think you might be coming to the end of your contract, or you’re getting excited about the looming release of a new handset, here’s some advice on your next steps.
Check your contract end date
You’ll need to check when your current contract expires. You can do that by checking in My Account or the My Optus app for your service summary/plan information. You can learn more about the My Optus app here.
All you need to do is look at the ‘contracted until’ date. If your contact has expired you can look at getting an upgrade whenever it’s convenient for you.
If your account number starts with a 62, follow the steps below to view your contract end date, plan and Critical Information Summary (CIS) details:

Get Credit for your old unwanted phone(s)
Did you know that you can trade in some devices with us and get credit towards a new one? Search for your device and see if it is eligible.
If it is, you can fill in some details about the condition of your device, get a quote, organise getting the device to us, and then you’ll receive credit on your bill.
Simple. Much better than popping it in a drawer and forgetting about it.
