This is now available only for new customers who are ABN holders willing to connect 5+ connections.
My vodafone distributer and she has said that she can give the Samsung Galaxy SII for $45 over 24 months with 4+ months free (negotiable).

you get a credit for 3 months on your invoice and you directly invoice the shop (leaving out name as i am not promoting any business on this forum) directly for the rest of the free months. She will then pay directly to your bill or into your account (whatever you negotiate).

This is what i had to do:
To get this phone, you call audrey on 0425833883
Negotiate your free months
She will send you through to her sales people
they will get your details
they will fill out a credit check form
once it is approved they will call you
come and sign paperwork, or they can fax it to you.
sign it and send it back. 100pt id scaned in colour PDF
pdf in full colour 100pt id
send it via mail will cost $10, pick up is free in sydney store

You can get a white or black coloured phone, the white just came out 2 weeks ago.

        A small quip implying that one may confuse this site with one dedicated solely to the Samsung Galaxy S2. The quip is made effective with its slightly abstract delivery and poignant timing.

    Good deal on the phone but the phone plan may not be so good - in my experience VodaFail always has reception problems so the infinite plan will be pretty useless when you can't actually call people…
    If people have good VodaFail reception in their area, it would be a very good deal - the number of people who have good reception can probably be counted on one hand.

    • taki on 26/09/2011 - 22:07
      +2

      people with good reception counted on 1 hand: But multiplied by million.

      @ Brighton Le Sands the reception on '3' is always max on galaxy s/s2, desire HD, INQ mini, SE…

      Same place on friends iPhone & Telstra 1-2 bars.

      ALL depends on location. Vodafone in general getting better than Optus in metropolitan areas & much cheaper than Telstra.

      My son moved to Voda from 3 with SGS2 and it's better. In 4+ months when Voda merge with 3 network it will be much better + new 850MHz towers for new phones.

      A friend got new SGS2 on Telstra & paying $59+$20/mth!?

      • BargainHunter69 on 26/09/2011 - 23:14
        +1

        It's not about bars, it's whether you can make and receive calls and messages - ie. you can have full reception and vodafail fails.

        • taki on 27/09/2011 - 00:04

          It's about bar$.
          I've been with 3 since 2003 and other than @ the beginning & never had significant problems.

          There are a some black spots (as any network would have) where I have a workaround.
          As a loyal customer I always get excellent deals, eg. Desire HD $10/mth including plan with free 500min to 3 (25% of my contacts+fam/friends); Galaxy S $0 on $29cap with 1.5GB 14 months ago. Try it on Telstra!?
          In case a rare dropped calls just quick redial solves the problem & with the saved money I can do other things.

          Exception - Data load was not as good a few months ago, but with 'Skype on 3/Vodafone' (more reliable via mobile gateway) I am very happy.

          I prepare content on my SD card & avoid being dependent on web browsing. I prefer to browse on a PC as I cut&paste to Word/Excel to highlight important, do analysis & archive.
          Good luck with your hunting…

        • dealman on 27/09/2011 - 07:10

          hey Taki,
          I get everything you have mentioned + unlimited calls to anyone on the three network,
          might be worth negotiating with them,
          Cheers

      • nickolanda on 27/09/2011 - 09:47

        Okay so another thing you have to consider is that there is a massive difference between 2G reception and 3G reception.

        If you have 1 bar of 3G, in most cases it will be faster than full 2G. And sure I get your point below that you would much rather surf the internet on your home computer than your mobile phone - but that's not for everyone; it's actually probably the minority now. I mean a smartphone practically relies on internet, half of the functions are based on the net. Sure in your instance you do everything offline - but that's not for everyone.

        At the end of the day you get what you pay for. Voda is the cheapest and it probably has the worst service (as compared to the other two) in most areas. Optus isn't ridiculously better (internet wise) but you never get drop outs and your SMSs always send…and in saying that, they aren't THAT much more expensive. Telstra is by far the best (fast internet in most places, even while moving) but you pay for it.

      • shani123 on 27/09/2011 - 11:57

        Hahahaha - absolutely laugh at the notion that Voda has a few MILLION satisfied customers with good reception - funniest joke I've heard. Again, there may be some with "good" reception agreed but go to http://www.vodafail.com/ and you will see there is a dedicated website detailing vodafail's failures. I think it's only fair to warn customers that they may get themselves into a plan with unlimited calls that don't work.

  • homersyd on 26/09/2011 - 17:07

    let me spot the bargain for u:

    Find someone happy with vodafone, offer them the contract. So they happy to take 24mths plan( 45bucks/mth with 6mths off )for only $410 as you will pay them $400 for the phone. TAADAAA you get a Samsung Galaxy S2 for $400, go on liveconnected, not connected network, which ever SIM only plans that suits you. Remember that guy is also only paying $17 each month for a 45 infinite plan. WIN WIN

    • A Banana4scale on 26/09/2011 - 20:54

      only problem is phone warranty, you'll have to go through the person who owns the contract

        • overlook on 27/09/2011 - 05:38

          you can always sell the plans on places like gumtrees. one advantage that vodafone has, is many overseas students like them for the fact of being cheap and able to call overseas using ur credit. With only $17 a month for a $45cap i am sure many will pick it up. So you dont really need to mention that you got the phones, and dumping the plan.

        • Daabido on 27/09/2011 - 07:38

          How do you sell a plan without it coming back to bite you in the backside? Do Telcos allow you to transfer plans to someone else and is there a cost involved?

      It has nothing to do with Optus. Ajthanud obviously made a typographical error. Services such as voicemail, call connect, 13 and 18 numbers are charged against your bonus monthly credit of $45. But I hate voicemail anyway and I call 13 and 18 number from my landline, so this deal is perfect. :-)

      I wouldn't say the huawei honor is better. It does beat the SGS2 in some aspects but it's single core and has half the ram.

      http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone2=4197

      Edit: Just reread your post. Those phones do seem like much better value especially the Foxconn M1(Xiaomi)

      • overlook on 27/09/2011 - 05:41

        actually Xiaomi is dual core 1.5ghz. but its still a china phone, which should be widely available in china in a week or so. No one knows about its performance of being dual core 1.5ghz is better or worse than SGS2. One thing i can say tho is the Xiaomi UI (MiUI) rom works extremely well on my DHD. I cant even get back to original android rom nor sense rom.

        • ccrap on 28/09/2011 - 01:38

    • annoynimous on 27/09/2011 - 00:22

      quality vs price, local warranty support, xda support based on popularity of the product, you really don't want to be left out of the party, but I do agree Xiaomi will be a decent enough buy due to its stock OS being handled by experienced custom ROM devs such as the MIUI team, which complies with Cyanogenmod

    If you are looking to buy a phone outright, you can get a brand new Sony Ericisson Xperia Arc for $400 from ebay or various websites. It's a better phone and better value for money in my opinion.

    • massari on 27/09/2011 - 10:52

        Thanks,

        Audrey called me back from the message I left last night, seems this deal has been somewhat popular, we worked something out, pretty happy.

    Note: Had to Edit this post as dealer has asked me to. Not sure how to delete the post totally.

    I believe you just need to 'report' your post and ask a mod to delete it.

    Does anyone know if you can unlock this phone for any network?

      yes, free from Vodafone. Even for 12 month contracts and this is 24 months so shouldn't be a problem. Also warranty is 24 months on 12 for any voda contract
