MOVING FROM VAYA TO AMAYSIM
WHAT’S HAPPENING
For some time now, Vaya has been part of the amaysim family and we’ve been working hard to bring the best of both brands into one.
While this means saying goodbye to Vaya, we are excited to let you know how we’ll be welcoming you to amaysim.
We have prepared the below FAQs to give you all the information you need to know before and after moving to amaysim.
MOVING TO AMAYSIM

BILLING & PAYMENTS
You’ll receive your first bill a few days after being moved to amaysim.

No. However, to adjust your bill cycle to amaysim we’ll include an adjustment in your first bill for the period between your old Vaya renewal date and your new amaysim renewal date, this is also known as ‘pro rata’.
If you pay with BPAY, check your first amaysim bill for the new BPAY biller ID and reference. If you have BPAY already setup, you must change the details for your new amaysim account.
If you use direct debit or credit card to pay your existing Vaya bill, those payment methods will be transferred across to your amaysim account.
Your last Vaya bill will be issued 1 month before your moving date. Once you are transferred to amaysim, we’ll check your final Vaya month for any excess usage and transfer that to your first amaysim bill.
When we complete the transfer of your services to amaysim, we will close your Vaya account and move any remaining credit to your new amaysim account.
We will move any final balance due to your new amaysim account. If you don’t have any active services, we won’t open an amaysim account for you and you will need to pay your final Vaya bill when it’s due.
