        • At the time of writing this (assuming clicks = purchases) I believe the maths works as follows:

          • 1320 (clicks) x $30 (value of gift card) = $34,260 (allocation of gift cards exhausted)

          • $200,000 (allocated stock of gift cards) - $34,260 (allocation of gift cards exhausted) = $165,740 (allocated stock left)

          • $165,740 (allocated stock left) / $30 (value of gift cards) = 5,524 (more purchases that can be made)

          Theoretically it should last till tomorrow!

        • +1

          you are forgetting the people who made multiple purchases. and not all clicks will turn into purchases, i for one refreshed this page many times :)

        • Correct, there are a lot of assumptions made with the maths above… e.g. not even counting the purchases made by those who got the email directly and those making purchases via Mastercard without even realising they get a bonus $30 gift card.

          I was merely correcting grab_ur_freebies' maths, which was way out. ;o)

          All in all, he/she is correct when saying, "Better get a move on then & grab one…".

  • Just purchased $100 gift card, wondering when we gonna get $30 ecard?

    • Spur of the moment purchase. Now I need to work out what electronic goods I need…..

  • I'm looking to buy a $1200 TV. Does that mean that I can potentially save $360 if I purchased 12 * $100 in 12 transactions ?

    • hopefully you'll get in time though otherwise that's $1200 of gift cards you need to use

    • +1

      In theory, you could buy 9 and only have to pay an extra $30 on top of the vouchers. Price of tv would be $930 out of your pocket.

      • +1

        Isn't it 2 eGift card can be used?

        • Is it correct that only 2 e-gift vouchers?
          On the other hand, the manager of the Malaga (WA) store was not rude to me about processing the gift vouchers so I walked off.

        • -1

          But the bastard in (complain to JB management) so long as you are 100% sure you weren't being an asshole yourself and the guy deserves it.
          Revenge = always sweet.

        • First he lied about the price then I showed the advertised price.
          Second when I asked him his business card and write his name down for a written complaint; he refused.

        • I meant he was rude.

  • +1

    Hmm, what am I going to do with 2 Xbox?
    How am I going to justify this?

    • Christmas Present?

  • So do you get both the gift card and the egift card emailed to you in a few hours (up to 3 days?)

    Edit appears the gift cards you can use it online straight away but need to wait for it to be mailed to use instore

  • I just got a gift voucher. now I realise what can screw us all over. if they run out if xbox!
    that's only for those like me who just want the Xbox and lam nothing else from jb

    • Did you purchase a gift card?

      • +2

        yeah i did. i guess its worth the risk

    • Have you received the Egift card? I didn't even received the gift voucher of the 100$ purchased. Bought 3 hours ago….

      • I bought one half hour/hour back.. No sign of it yet (the $100 gift voucher, i mean). Thought those things were basically instant.. hope it's all good.

        ed: Ok, it's 'within one business day' in terms and conditions. That's clearer.

  • +1

    can you pay for gift card with gift cards? then the online limit would be meaningless

    • +2

      it is a mastercard deal

      • +1

        no i mean to overcome the 2 gift cards per online purchase limit.

        • lol I guess you could but its a long process..

          I mean you only can convert 2 gift cards to 1 gift card..

          So if you purchase say 10 cards to give you a total $1300.

          It will take 19 further transactions to get them all converted.
          Good luck trying to do that without being questioned..

  • +1

    correct me if I'm wrong, but JB have not advertised what their xbox price will be from the 26th yet have they?

    so, buying into he gift card now… may not necessarily save as much as we're expecting.

    • Correct.. But i doubt they will put them up in price. There would be a bash lash from ozbargainers.

      But we dont know for sure if even they are participating retailers for the Xbox cash back!

      • +3

        I don't think JB care what we think……we only like them when they have 20% off

    Just wondering if I can use the same MasterCard for multiple $100 JB gift card purchase and still get $30 JB eGift card for each $100 I purchased?

    • I hope so .. I just bought 2.

  • Is there any limit of $30 gift card per email account? Or is it $30 for every $100 orders?

  • I need to buy a TV around $1000, do i need to buy the gift card $100 x 1 check out then do it 10 times or can I just add $100 gifts cards x 10 and checkout once?

    • +1

      you need to buy 8 $100 cards and check out each time (8 times)

      You will then have a total of $1040 worth of credit cards (16 in all). Wait till they arrive in post and go in store

  • In the terms and conditions. It states that "If your eGift Card balance does not exceed the price of your purchase, you can pay the difference with a selected credit card or cash. " so will you be allowed to pay the difference with another $30 eGift card?

  • Any issues with placing 2 orders with the same Mastercard?
    Not looking to buy Gift Cards.

  • Can I use Debit Master Card or it must be Credit card?

    • It's the same thing when you buy online. The store will only see it as a MC.

  • hopefully it works!

  • Anyone got the $30 gift ecard after purchasing gift card of $100

    • I think it works well based on what "imket" said above.

    • -1

      Have you got the 100$ gift ecard? I didn't not received the one I purchased. Not mentioned the $30 one…

      • +1

        Me neither, but the tax invoice.

      • Got the $100. Was in Junk Mail folder..

        • Really??? There is no mail, even in my junk mail folder….

    • Not yet:( purchased 2 $100 gift cards so far.

    • +1

      "Participants should allow 3 business days between receipt of the confirmation email and delivery of the eGift Card."

      • -1

        Thanks dude. As a matter of fact, I have seen that rule..But someone has mentioned that he/she has received the $100 eGift card (OR/AND the $30 one, not sure which one it was) and thus wanna make sure whether it works or not. I didn't even got the eGift card I bought..According to many comments here, I should got the electronic ones that I bought as well.

        • you can purchase egift card????how?

        • I think you have got the link. Actually it's not a eGift card but a gift card with eGift card version…Hope you understand!

        • got it:
          " The recipient will receive BOTH a physical gift card AND an emailed digital version."

          so i just need to wait.

  • how do you buy a giftcard on jb hifi's website?

    • You meant the link?

      • -2

        just found it. thanks anyway.

  • "blah has sent you a JB Hi-Fi Gift Card!

    Message:

    So that you can use it straight away, we’ve included your gift card details below, but you can only use these details at http://www.jbhifionline.com.au. If blah requested that your JB Hi-Fi Gift Card also be posted to you then it will arrive in 2-3 business days and can be used at any of JB Hi-Fi’s store locations as well as online."

    sorry if i created misunderstanding earlier. i received my 100$ Gift card, but not the egift card (30$)

  • Just bought mine :)
    Thanks for the find!

  • To much will it work etc lol can someone that has either bought or got it confirmed if I buy 5 x $100 gift cards 1 per transaction will I get 5x $30 vouchers? If so cheap ps4 when they got stock :p

    Also can you use multiple gift cards in store? It says 2 online but I'm sure you could use more in store? It like cash thanks

    • I bought 5. I've received 4 out of 5 of my gift cards via email so far.
      Haven't received any of the comp $30 gift cards yet

    • Yes, you can use multiple cards in store. I have used 8 gift cards few months ago, make sure you scratch off where the pin number is so that it is faster for the cashier to process your payment.

    • I wouldn't buy 5 gift cards in a single order - you may only receive a single $30 bonus gift card.

      If you place 5 orders, for a $100 gift card each time, then you will hopefully get 5x $30 bonus gift cards.

  • If anyone ends up with more than one bonus $30 card I'll be surprised:

    "5. In the event that JB Hi-Fi is aware of, or reasonably suspects, fraud or other abuse of, or interference with, the offer or if the offer is not capable of being conducted as reasonably anticipated for any reason beyond the reasonable control of JB Hi-Fi, JB Hi-Fi reserves the right, in its sole discretion and to the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) to disqualify any participant; (b) to refuse to honour, and/or deactivate, any eGift Card issued pursuant to this offer; and (c) to modify, suspend, terminate or cancel the offer, as it believes appropriate."

    I sure wish I was confident our local store would price match the $98 Kobo Glo. At less than $70 (once the $30 'discount' was applied) it's a bargain.

    • Doesn't say anything about limit 1 per person, so no reason why multiple purchases would be disqualified or not honored.

    • I can't see how trying to get more than 1 $30 bonus card would be fraud, abuse or interference.

      Maybe trying to get 50 or 100 might be. 3 or 5 or even 10 would all seem like a reasonable quantity and could not be trapped by that clause above.

      If they didn't want people to get more than 1 then they would explicitly say that in their t's and c's.

      • Well given that the requirement of the offer is to spend $100 or more in order to receive the $30 gift card, they COULD argue that if you bought 8 X $100 gift cards immediately one after the other in separate transactions instead of just one transaction that you are abusing the offer in order to obtain the $30 bonus 8 times instead of the once that you'd get if it all purchased in one transaction.

  • It's not accepting my MasterCard it says pre authorisation required and order status is pending?
    I already purchased one with 28degrees card but commonwealth MasterCard and debit MasterCard both says same? How do I get this authorisation

  • Sorry where on JB HiFi says $30 eGift card promotion for $100 spent?

  • Go to the website http://www.jbhifi.com.au/
    If u can't see there then click on top left jbhifi logo

  • thanks

  • Just wonder, can I use my friend's $30 eGiftcards as well combine with my own eGiftcard where purchase in store?

  • so when does the deal for 100 cash back for a 360 start, and do we get on top of does 100 a 30 dollars gift card as well?

  • What happened to all the Sonos Play 1's at their website? :( Not listed - sold out?

  • I've bought one $100 card - now to try my luck buying another and seeing if they will honour multiple purchases for the same person with the same card.

  • Can someone confirm if we have to buy the Xbox 360 online or in-store to be eligible for the cashback? Or can it be any of the two?

  • has anyone already got the $30 bonus gift card??

    • I don't think anyone has considering its the weekend & xmas period now unless they have an automated system processing them as we speak.

  • Thanks, bought a gift card. Tempted to do a second one…

    • +3

      I thought about 2, but only got 1 as I didn't want to be stuck with multiple 'e-money' cards that are tied to one retailer if this whole thing backfires…if it comes through I get a free $30 bucks. So if that's the case, no loss, still a win. Just don't dwell on the outcome that 'could have been'.

      • +1

        I'm also thinking of 1 card only - safe bet.
        In case your lucky to get Xbox on 26th pay $69 with gift card and balance $100 with Mastercard to claim another $30

        Hope it makes sense

  • sorry cant delete this post,

  • Anyone bought gift cards and successfully received bonus $30 e gift cards?

    • Too early to say, it says 3 days. More likely Tuesday or Friday.

      • if this deal applies on gift card purchase, we should receive the 30 bonus eGift card on Monday.

        T & C :
        4.Once transaction funds have been deducted from the participant’s Mastercard, theparticipant will receive an email confirming the transaction. A separate email containing the eGift Card will be emailed to the email address nominated in the participant’s JB Hi-Fi online account.

  • Received the $100 gift card via email (I believe the card will be also delivered to my address physically)
    Now waiting for the $30 e-voucher

    • Hi bro, would you mind sharing me when you bought yours? I bought last night at around 7 but still not receive it yet.

      • I received the gift card within 1 hour
        Check your junk email - I found it in my junk email folder

        Having said that - still waiting for the bonus $30

      • I bought a few last night. Received 1 less gift card email than order confirmation. Went back into jb hi fi web site to look at order history and 1 was marked as payment failed. Suggest checking this if it isn't in your junk mail.

        • Ordered mine on Friday night. Haven't received the original gift card yet; the JB Hifi website shows it as "Complete".

          Going to assume it's because of the weekend for now.

        • My one that failed shows as complete on the summary screen.

  • Not sure if someone asked here before:
    Can I use gift card to buy another gift card online or in store?

    It is not related to this deal but just in case if I have nothing to buy within 24 months so that can buy another gift card to give another 24 months buffer.

  • Ordered 1 yesterday got gift card within one hour, Now waiting on bonus card.
    But how can we know if 200k limit has been reached Jbhifi can reject our claim on this T&Cs.

    • They should stop advertising the promotion if the limit has been reached otherwise it is false advertising.

  • ref "MasterCard must be registered in customer’s own name" do you need register with MasterCard SecureCode to qualify for the $30 or just the name on the mastercard needs to match the order?

    • So I cannot use my wife's mastercard to buy $100 gift card?

      • According to the terms, no you can't. But nothin is stopping "your wife" from buying gift cards.

        • I am not sure how it works.
          That means I need to create the JB HiFi login with my name that exactly the same as my Mastercard name on it?

      • So I cannot use my wife's mastercard to buy $100 gift card?

        You can if you make her the customer. That's all I did with hubby's card.

  • i made a gift card purchase and got a strange message about pre authorisation but no pop up asking for the securecode however the transaction was still processed about 2 hours later. does jb hi fi offer MasterCard SecureCode?

  • I don't see any 30$ eGift card offer on their website. Has it expired?
