    $32.50 per month for iPhone 7 Plus on the $100 plan after you take out the retail price of the phone which is epically good for 15GB data, unlimited calls and 400 international minutes

      Plus on the $100 plan

      I'm on a $40 plan with 11GB data that roll over, unlimited national calls and text and $600 in international credit… Can't see how paying $60 more is a bargain…

  • littleannie on 01/03/2017 - 10:24

    $48.75 for the S7 with 7GB of data. Man, that is an amazing deal and makes me cry that I'm paying $65/month for the next 15 months for it.

    • outlander on 01/03/2017 - 10:43
      +1

      Just about to say the same thing ^.^

      Wow that is an awesome deal! I got a mobile through a Harvey Norman deal a few months back, but now I kinda wished I'd waited

      In fact, if you have a optus broadband connect and you don't have a mobile with them, you are losing money

      Take the Samsung S7 with 7GB data plan. Normally $65 a month. Total cost over 24 months is 1560
      With this deal, that drops down to 1170. Sell the phone for at least 600, the bonus gearfit for $100, minus the $20 a month discount on your broadband, >and the sim ends up being just -40c month. That's right, optus will be paying you 40c a month to have the sim.

      • illumination on 01/03/2017 - 11:19

        That sounds interesting, but using your maths I'm getting a figure of $230 over 24 months ($1170 less $600 for selling the phone, less $100 for selling Gear Fit, less $240 for the $20/month discount) which ends up being $9.58/mth. Am I missing something?

        • 18 on 01/03/2017 - 11:32
          +1

          The broadband would be a 24 month contract, not 12 months.

          So this makes it 1170-600-100-480 = -$10 altogether = -$0.42/month

        • pantsparty on 01/03/2017 - 11:35
          +1

          $20/month discount multiplied by 24 months is $480

        • illumination on 01/03/2017 - 11:36

          @pantsparty: Ah I miscalculated $20 * 24! I only did * 12 - makes sense now. Thanks both.

      • ryang on 01/03/2017 - 12:07

        Do you get a stacked discount if you have broadband with them?

        • outlander on 01/03/2017 - 12:19

          Stacked? Like multiple mobile plans? No that doesn't work

        • ryang on 01/03/2017 - 12:20

          @outlander: No, as in this discount, plus what you said above;

          In fact, if you have a optus broadband connect and you don't have a mobile with them, you are losing money

          and..

          .. minus the $20 a month discount on your broadband ..

          So they give you $20/month off your broadband if you have a mobile plan with them?

        • outlander on 02/03/2017 - 21:52

          @ryang:

          Yes. Optus give a $20 discount on broadband to anyone with them that has a postpaid mobile plan

        • ChaLuo on 14/03/2017 - 10:07

          @outlander:

          T&C from above states: Not available in conjunction with any other discount offer

          So are you sure the $20 broadband discount is still valid if we take this offer?

        • snensnay on 14/03/2017 - 14:38

          @outlander: Be careful, having signed up to this Optus Mobile deal, I have been told that my existing broadband is not valid for the discount. Not happy Optus!

        • outlander on 14/03/2017 - 14:56

          @snensnay:
          Really? Thats BS. The way I read it, the discount is on the broadband, not the mobile, so the two shouldn't conflict

        • snensnay on 14/03/2017 - 15:38

          @outlander: Hidden in the T & Cs is that if your broadband was started prior to May 2016 you don't​ qualify. You have to recontract to a minimum $80 per month plan. So I have cancelled my mobile order.

      • furythree on 01/03/2017 - 12:19

        You are not going to get $600 for the s7 which is about to be superceded but your point stands

        • outlander on 01/03/2017 - 12:21

          I sold mine for $670 at the start of February
          Optus offers a 2year warranty on handsets, so its worth a little more than the competition

        • furythree on 01/03/2017 - 12:28

          @outlander: on ebay? it would come down now and by the time people get their devices. They have until march 28th before prices fall hard.

          id be all over this if i didnt already have an s7 or the $20 discount already (without having an optus phone!)

          @furythree:

          Same here mate, if the discounts stacked I'd buy 10 of them no hesitations. Optus has another benefit to it, that they allow you to purchase data share sims for a one time fee of $5. So you can share the 7gb between multiple devices. Makes it even more attractive

      Port out onto a cheap prepaid and then port back in - not sure it'll help you get these 10 redemptions as will probably take a few hours, but if you can find someone else who works for them, you might be able to get the same deal.

    • SewerCider on 01/03/2017 - 13:34

      OP, do you know if my wife can take this up, and I can then data-share with her as I am with Optus?

      I think maybe the accounts have to be linked or on the same bill to do this, so can I link her account with mine after?

        If you sign up and have the same bill it will automatically data-share. That happened with my accounts automatically (they were linked).

        • Popo on 01/03/2017 - 13:36

          But that would not be classified as a new customer as the account exists so would not get a discount.Correct me if I've misunderstood. I have a Post paid that is about to expire and just signed up for the tablet plan for my mum and added to my account. So I cannot even port out as the tablet will hold my account open and I'll not be a new customer.

        • AssociatedTurboeagles @ Optus Accessories on 01/03/2017 - 13:40

          @Popo:

          I would probably confirm with sales - however from what I understand its if you order a "New" service. Doesn't matter if its attached to an existing account but please confirm with sales.

        • djkelly69 on 01/03/2017 - 12:40

          Yeah same name is the issue, as I am an existing optus customer, plus her phone/plan at the moment is obviously in her name.

        • Associatedcoffeerequired @ Optus Accessories on 17/03/2017 - 08:58

          @djkelly69: Offer is for a new service, like a port in mobile or new number or prepaid to post paid, doesn't matter if you are already a customer already with a service but doesn't include re-contracting services. To share data all services will have to be transferred to the same account, under the same name, which you can do at any time just by contacting customer care :) Hope this helps.
