Getting started

 

Transferring your number

You can transfer your mobile number to Dodo by selecting the option when activating your Dodo mobile SIM card.

  • If your existing service is pre-paid, we require the mobile service number and the date of birth provided when that service was created.
  • If your existing service is post-paid, we require the mobile service number and the account number of the service you wish to transfer to Dodo.

If you are transferring your number from another provider, your service should be active within 4 hours, but may take  up to 24 hours.

Keep your original sim card in your handset, once your SIM stops working, just replace it with your Dodo SIM card and you're done!

 

Once your service has been activated, turn your device off, then back on again.

Compatible handsets and devices

 

To use your Dodo mobile SIM, you will need to have a 4G/5G compatible mobile device*.

Text 3 to 3498 to determine if your handset is compatible or click here if you have no active service.

 

*This service is not compatible with e-SIM or any devices (like watches) that use e-SIM to connect to the mobile network.

Please ensure that your device is not locked to another carrier, to ensure operation.

How do I activate my Dodo SIM?

 

A one-time passcode is a way for us to protect the privacy of our customers, ensuring that the service holder is the one who is requesting the transfer of their mobile number.

As part of the sign-up process, a one-time passcode will be sent to the mobile number you are wishing to transfer via SMS, so make sure you have that handy.

Once we have verified the passcode entered, you will be able to complete the transfer of your service to Dodo mobile.

If you suspect that your mobile service number has been fraudulently transferred to Dodo, you should immediately report the activity to either (a) the Australian Federal Police or the relevant State or Territory Police; (b) Scamwatch at www.scamwatch.gov.au/report-a-scam; and (c) report the transfer of service to your mobile phone provider.
