        I got the deal from JB hi fi as telstra were sold out. Google home mini and earphones were all in plastic wrap with the phone. Went home went on telstra online chat asked for 5GB data. They told me this

        "The 5GB MULTI Product Bonus, is given to a Recontracting or New Mobile Service. It's not applicable for everyone, so please refrain from sharing iwth your friends."

        They applied it so now have 20GB data. I ported from Optus to Telstra

        Can you advise how? I need to get myself the same deal as you. I need international calling.

        Cheers

        • Slothme on 02/03/2018 - 11:52

          i seriously don't know how i got my international plan included for same price.. apart from that i can help you to get the rest of the pack.

          Run over to telstra and ask for upgrade for $59 pixel deal.
          If you are new customer you get bonus 5gb

          When you sign up for $49 in JB and went back to Telstra, didn't they say that $59 was only for new port in customers? Thanks

          @Peepinkittu: Are you sure they upgraded you to the Pixel 2 XL "Friends and Family" plan ($59) and not to the Pixel 2 XL "XL" plan ($139) which also includes international calling? Coz I tried doing the same and it really seemed like I was able to get it until they started explaining the deal to me, and it sounded too good to be true with Foxtel and 30 GB data and international calling etc. It turns out when I asked for the Pixel 2 XL deal, they heard Pixel 2 in "XL" deal, XL being the size of the plan and not the phone.. LOL. Then my moment of joy :) turned upside down :( when they said I could never do this as both the $49 sim only and $59 FF plans are port only offers and as soon as I take one, I am already a Telstra customer and won't be able to take another. So I would really suggest you check your plan cost carefully. But I really hope they made an error and you got all that in a $59 plan. All the best. :)

          As explained I don’t know how my international pack is included.. i am still confused.. but happy ☺️

        • malkakas on 05/03/2018 - 14:46

          @Peepinkittu: I think the $49 BYO plan include the international call pack. May be it was not changed when you upgrade to $59 pixel plan.

      • samuraiOz on 03/03/2018 - 13:56

        Anyone tried this approach to get additional$200 gift card?

        • pennypincher98 on 03/03/2018 - 15:30

          You'll probably be denied, but if you are buying other stuff at JB they might be nice? You'll have to get the first plan at JB, so can't get the second one there. Telstra will probably decline unless you come up with something that gets them money like a second service.

      • rhimes on 15/03/2018 - 20:59

        Do you have a receipt or something? this sounds like an awesome deal. I'd be happy with the deal minus international calling….

      Depending on how long you have to go, break it, port to Vodafone pre-paid, walk into telstra, $$$.

        Can't do this anymore, the number needs to have not been with Telstra for 3 months now. They're cracking down on this.

    • [Deactivated] on 28/02/2018 - 15:33

      I tried 3 reps online to allow me to recontract my existing service. First rep I believe I came close, second rep flat out said no and in store offer only, third rep told me the deal was already finished.

      Anyone have any luck getting around the port in requirement yet?

      • 2023 on 28/02/2018 - 15:46

        I had no luck when switching to the $39 mx plan a few months ago, had to bite the bullet and port.
        It was one of the toughest battles I've had with telstra, it's like they get bonuses out of ports or something.

      When you fully load the page I see "Pixel 2 XL 64GB Just Black"
      But interestingly, if you stop the page loading mid way through, it shows the 128GB model… Hmm.

      • camshandez on 28/02/2018 - 15:26

        I noticed that too… think it just preloads the 128GB tab option first, then switches to the 64GB = https://i.imgur.com/P48vnrI.png

          Doubt they'd be able to do the Note on a $59 comparable plan, price and age difference on the phones is a bit of a gap.

      • The Almighty Dollar on 28/02/2018 - 21:43

        True. For the price it’s very good, but I’ve had nothing but issues with previous Nexus phones. The reliability and service Apple offer are worth the extra $ for me, but that’s all relative of course.

        • timbertron on 01/03/2018 - 12:05

          Apple always role out software bugs. The reason I switched from Apple to Google was because Googles online services are way more reliable than Apple's. Lest we forget the car crash that was iOS6 and mobileme as well.
          But having said that there are always issues with phones. The best companies respond and push out fixes quickly like Google and Apple. But I prefer Google from my past experiences.

      At least with Virgin you can end your contract at any time and just pay out the handset. Could work out better in the long run depending on your phone’s resale value.

    How annoying port in only! Just makes us take an extra step to get the deal..

    Can we literally just port out onto a $5 sim, then come into store 10 minutes later to port into Telstra?

    • Shon on 28/02/2018 - 14:59

      Usually, if their archaic systems can keep up.

    • [Deactivated] on 01/03/2018 - 11:05

      I was chatting with JB hifi & they said you need to port out for 30+days, or they don't consider it as a port in, and thus it won't go through.

      • jonnoyeo on 01/03/2018 - 12:22

        I also got the same advice from the Telstra store. They said you had to roll over a billing cycle.

          What to believe?

        • [Deactivated] on 01/03/2018 - 12:34

          Oh well might be worth porting over to a Voda plan for a month
          $20 inc 18gb 35days.
          https://www.vodafone.com.au/prepaid/plans

          It's a bugga as I don't want to port out & then miss out on a Pixel 2 XL (being sold out) & lose my $25/mth plan. It sounds like you can't be a Telstra mobile customer at all (I thought of keeping my existing plan, grabbing a new number & porting in & then trying to move my number across to the $59 plan).

        • [Deactivated] on 01/03/2018 - 13:24

          @John Kimble: I'd believe the 3mth one, since they're associated.

          I might try to port in a new number then see if I can move my old number across to the new service. I can drop my existing plan -> $10/mth & just have call divert & leave the sim in my old phone for sms's
