i'm heading over to Sydney in May and have already booked a hostel in Glebe. Recently i came across the VIP Backpackers card and the perks it includes. So, now i'm wondering if i should move over to a VIP hostel instead. Is this card really all its cracked up to be?? - free Greyhound bus miles, free prepaid phone SIM, discounts at certain places, etc?
It's not worse or better than any of the other cards; YHA will give you pretty much indistinguishable discounts in equivalent stores (and as far as I've seen, the same goes for Nomads and even ISIC cards), while public transport organizations don't even pretend to distinguish between them, but just say "x% discount with any backpacker card".
Pick one of the cards based on which hostel organization you feel most at home at, and then enjoy the discounts.
