2018 iPad 9.7" Cellular $29/Month Including 2GB Data on 24 Month Plan @ Telstra

1060

Not as good as last years deal for $20 however still pretty good as it includes 12gb data this time around.
cost of Ipad comes out at $336 + $360 for the data over 24 months

OR

You can get the 128GB for $34 a month which is also pretty good.

Love the feeling you get when you pick up the latest tablet?

With New Tablet Feeling built into our Go Mobile Broadband plans, you can get the latest tablet on a new 24-month device plan, and upgrade to a new 24-month device plan after just 12 months

All you need to do is wait at least 12 months, pay $149 when you’re ready for a new tablet on a new 24 month device plan and return your original tablet undamaged and in good working order.

        • @edfoo: Hi are you a existing telstra customer? I tried but failed. What did you said?

    fyi, if you have an optus postpaid service, you can get the 6th gen ipad 32gb for $30 with 10 gb, or $35 for the 128GB. comes with free netflix streaming, spotify streaming, optus sport

  • I am vaguely interested in getting an iPad so i called up about this and they offered me an extra 5GB straight away. Still umm'ing and ahh'ing about it…

    • Yeah it’s pretty easy to get offered it. I just don’t think they like people outright asking for it.

  • Hoping it ships today.
    The order page says “Available now
    Order by 4pm AEST for dispatch today with free delivery.”

    Unfortunately I didn’t try to use the Cashrewards, could have potentially got $95 cashback.

  • I was probably a bit too hopeful, failed at getting the BYO Mx (15gb/unlimited calls) for $29/month as other past users have on both my mobile services. Would have made an even better deal adding this along with the shared data.

  • +2

    Anyone got any idea whether they will lower it the price to $20 deal that op writes about? I know that it's tough as to speculate but thought someone might have a better idea of flows etc. Just that this deal is good, but $20 is that price I've been waiting for ages for.

  • I got the Pixel XL deal in March, and now I am not eligible for this deal. How silly is this?

    From Telstra's chat:

    Upon checking here, your existing postpaid account just got created 29/03/18. So the reason why your order got cancelled is because you are not yet an established customer and you currently have 1 mobile device limit and you have used that with your mobile. So in order for us to see if we can add another device on a plan, check with us by 29/09/18 because by that time, your account is 6 months old and that is the minimum required number of months to do a reassessment if we can further add service.

    So it is just that your account is not established yet and that your current device limit is 1 and you have used it on your mobile.

    • Wow stupid.

    • +2

      Call 132200, say "Cancellations", "Cancel a service", talk to the folks from Adelaide and get what you want.

    • this is a credit check restriction, nothing to do with that deal.

  • Received today and no mention of extra 5gb anywhere. Now to fight for it.

    • That bad huh?

      • Luckily it wasn't too hard to get back. Frustrating that the rep wouldn't make note of the 5gb extra/actually put it on my account.

        • I will probably have to wait till tomorrow when I receive my iPad to see if I also have the same problem like you :-/

        • Well guess what. I also had the same problem like you. I received the iPad on Wednesday, Telstra app only showing 1GB monthly data with my plan. I chatted to an online agent that night who promised me it will get fixed within 48 hours. Tonight after 48 hours, it still has not been fixed. I had to chat to another online agent just now and after transferred from I assume Sale team to Technical team, the bonus 5GB data has finally been added to my monthly plan. Such a pain. I think those agents are very friendly to chat with online, but not very good when it comes to actually doing the work :-/

        • @edfoo: yeah. Luckily mine only took about 2 hours to get out on.

          Sounds like the sales people are full of crap to be honest. Like they’ll say anything for a sale.

        • @theguyrules: Too right.

    Managed to get 1gb +5gb bonus no questions asked for the iPad offer.

    Pressed the CSR the provide any additional bonus free that their system allows. Did mention I had Telstra foxtel, home phone, internet and mobile with them.

    Managed to get another bonus 5gb added to my account for free.

    In the end got 1gb + 5gb + 5gb for $29. This will be pooled with my AMWAY mobile plan.

    Like always, will probably need to speak with billing when the next bill arrives as things never go smoothly for me :(

    • "Pressed the CSR the provide any additional bonus free that their system allows. Did mention I had Telstra foxtel, home phone, internet and mobile with them."

      What is this part? I have a very similar offer to yourself.

  • Best I can get out of them is:

    6GB data $29 for the 32GB model
    or
    6GB data $35 for the 128GB model.

  • Thanks, OP.

    Managed to get 6GB data through live chat too.

  • Hi can someone clarify whether this works with the $95 Cashrewards cashback? I asked them and they said that " "Cashback is only available when you take up a new phone on a 24 month Go Mobile Plus plan and handset repayment." The purchase of an iPad is not eligible for rewards with Telstra. "

    • +1

      This is why I pull back my trigger.

  • +1

    I got this response back from cashrewards customer service:

    "In response to your query regarding the cashback on post paid iPads, we can confirm that this is eligible to earn cashback through Cashrewards. However rewards will not be confirmed until the full payment has been made."

    I assume the last part means the first payment and not the entire amount of the contract.

    Having said that my question didnt specifically refer to Telstra but only the $95 cashback so they may have assumed ipads in general.

    • +2

      Update: Cashrewards got back to me again and advised the Telstra Ipad deal is NOT included in cashback offer.

  • bonus 5GB for having multiple services and another 5GB 'welcome bonus'

    Is this per plan or per account?

  • Any non-existing customers get 6gb? I just tried and failed… offer only to existing customers I was told…

  • They have updated their iPad plans. I really just need a wifi 128gb but keep trying to get the $34 plan at $30/mo with no luck otherwise keeping an eye out for good deals on the 128gb 6th gen wifi.

  • Telstra updated tablet plan, all the price remain the same, however you can NOT share data with any other data under your account.

    • What the heck. Glad I got in when I did.

  • Increased to 2GB/month.

  • In case this bites anyone else - I just checked what my data allowance was in the Telstra 24*7 app and it said 1GB even though I signed on the 2GB plan. After almost 1.5hrs on chat with Telstra, I now have 2GB - as it says I should on the paperwork I signed. Make sure you check!!!

  • No luck getting the bonus 5GB of data on 3+ separate live chat attempts.

    As mentioned earlier, since they've added the "Peace of mind" data on the higher plans, there is no more data pooling with your existing mobile plan either which sucks

  • The deal has changed - it is now $38 for the 32 Gig model, and $43 for the 128 Gig model.

    Also, data on both has increased from 2 Gig/month to 5 Gigs/month.

    Could you please update, thanks.

    • If you scroll left, you will still see the 2GB for $29.

      • Got it thanks. I couldn't scroll until I clicked see plans.

        Either way, personally I think the 5 Gig deal is better anyway.

  • I am wondering whether we can use it as a data sim for iPhone to use iMessage and FaceTime. As per Telstra t&c said they will cancel it.

  • Newbie here, I managed to sign up for the $44 Companion Plan (existing customer) for $34 a month - this is for the 128gb device with 5 gb data + 5 gb offered bonus. The live chat rep mentioned the the $44 plan will go back up to $49 tomorrow.
