Greetings everyone, just spotted that JB have placed the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 4G 128gb on promotion on their $99 Per Month 150gb Plan.

Considering that this plan has a $594 Early Termination Charge, you could essentially get the phone for $594 (+pro-rated first month charge) if you cancelled the plan early :)

Seems like an awesome deal for a brand new phone which is $799 on the Samsung Education store.

The 5G variant is also available for $149 Upfront.

I believe this may also be eligible for free Samsung Galaxy Buds Live too. May need to confirm with the store staff when ordering, the advertisement doesn't include this, however the bonus has been eligible on JB deals in the past.

As always, enjoy!

Note: In Store Only, may exclude some Victorian residents.

Edit: You can signup today 8/10 and pick up the phone when it starts tomorrow. See comments.

      Not that it would change a stubborn salesperson's mind but doing this deal you technically are buying it outright for $1150 and using a $1000 gift card according to other people above.

    Thanks - I went back and 30 mins of to and fro later I walked out with some buds. The dude tried to tell me it was a redemption thing and I showed him the web ad that had no mention of by redemption only. I got there.

Given VIC lockdown ends 19/10, the buds deal ends 14/10, and that JB Hi-Fi aren't doing plans over the phone at the moment, are people getting others interstate to purchase the phone under their name and then ship it down to them?
- miztadave on 09/10/2020 - 12:51
  
  Unlikely to be possible - you need to show ID when setting up the account as a credit check is done.

Hi there are many posters here who got the deal for only $89.
Is the cancellation price still $594 as it is on the $99 plan or is it a lower due to it being a slightly cheaper $89 plan?
- CodeXD on 09/10/2020 - 12:41

  I got the $89 deal, however, I can't figure out how to cancel it from the app/website. Live Chat has been waiting for a member of a team to join for ~10 minutes.

- JordanM on 09/10/2020 - 21:52
  
  It's still the $99 plan, just with a $10 monthly discount. So the same ETC applies.
miztadave on 09/10/2020 - 12:49

Cancellation is still a maximum of $594. The $89 is as a result of a $10/month credit applied to the account. Seems to be mostly automatically included when purchasing this plan.

Just got back from Indooroopilly, QLD. $89/month $149 FE 5G with new number and white Buds included. I casually remarked on the low ETC on the terms and conditions and the sales bloke said "Yeah, you're up already!". Snork :)
adamp237 on 09/10/2020 - 14:31

Got this epic deal today. Got even better in store. Paid $150 for the 5g version and Telstra are running a limited time offer for $10/month off for new sign ups. So I'm paying $89/month for 12 months months and getting 5g speeds. Data is shaped after 150GB unlike optus who charge you $10/GB over.

Even better, the salesman in store contacted his Telstra rep who agreed to throw in the buds (white only). I'm absolutely stoked at this deal!

signed up new number at hurstville store in Sydney. 5g 128gb white with white buds for $149 and $89/month. the blue one was out of stock. was asking about the 256gb version for $249, the staff was kind enough to check with other colleagues and their system a few times but confirmed its not included in this deal. but they mentioned they heard there might be more upcoming deal shortly to include the 256gb version, but not quite sure when or real. overall, still very happy.
lukits01 on 09/10/2020 - 16:31

Signed up at Chatswood today, was informed the Galaxy Buds Live was included as long as stocks last.
Chatswood Chaise didn't have any stock left, but they were kind enough to reserve one from Chatswood Westfield, so I walked over to the other JB hifi store to pick up the buds after I received the phone.

Signed up at Chatswood Westfield, there did not seem any rush or queue for this, thought the stocks were less, 5G FE only available in Orange color, I ended up with 4g one.
- wisdom on 10/10/2020 - 09:43
  
  Can you be a kind soul and report back if the 4g vestion has eSim?
  - wordsmith on 10/10/2020 - 16:08
    
    I did a quick check and don't see "Sim card manager" as an option, which is probably the first step to look for an eSim. Let me know if there is any specific steps and will confirm.

  Depends on who you get on chat. I was stuck with them on chat for 2 hrs just to cancel, they kept trying to keep you on their plan. Kept telling them I just want to cancel, they just keep you hanging. I probably would just port out not to deal with them on chat.

        @Raskids10: It took about 15-20 minutes when I was on last night when the rep stated he was going to initiate the process. However it seemed that he was juggling multiple chat enquiries due the long waits between responses, and that's likely to be responsible for the long wait.

Question about the $594 ETC. Is this a fixed amount or will be reduced if for example I am using the plan for 2 months? (Of course paying the $89x2)
- No ONE on 09/10/2020 - 21:19
  
  It will reduce but 50% of the remaining $99. Credit wouldn't count
  - CyberMurning on 09/10/2020 - 22:30
    
    So it will get reduced prorata then stop at 50% of $89x12 ? Yeah no credit counted.
    - No ONE on 10/10/2020 - 00:07
      
      No.
      You are already paying for 2 months 99*2
      
      Then termination: (remaining months of the 12 months plan)
      ETC= 10 months * $99 * 50%
      Provided you terminate on the first day of the 3rd month.

Juice08 on 10/10/2020 - 08:59

Are people mainly upvoting this because of the ETC trick? What about it as a standalone deal with an $89/mo plan?
- inasero on 10/10/2020 - 10:40
  
  I'll break it down for you…
  
  Yes, at the full price it's not that great of a deal considering this is a midrange phone (albeit a great one at that) - $149+12 months @$89/month=$1217 — vs $149+6x$89=$683.
  
  Don't forget with this deal you could also sell the buds if you're not looking to keep them, which would bring the overall cost down even further.
  
  You don't even need to do the maths.
  - cheaptech20 on 10/10/2020 - 11:44

    Minor correction, the discount doesnt apply to the ETC - so it's still $149+6×$99 = $743

        +1
        
        @db2k: Nope, the $594 replaces the monthly costs if you decide to cancel immediately which I believe is the main appeal of this deal. If you choose to keep the monthly plan it is $99 or $89 (if you get the discount) for the 12 month period of the contract.
        
        db2k on 10/10/2020 - 14:45
        
        @DOGGYWOWWOW: I called 135244 - they seemed confused, but eventually someone had insight and I was told if you cancel in the 1st month, you pay 1 month in advance so it would be $99 x2 for the current month and 1 month in advance … (doesnt sound right?)
        
        and then $594/12 = $49.50 ETC pro rata, so 10 months left (after 2 months on the plan)
        
        2 months @$99 PLAN = $198
        10 months @$49.50 ETC = $495
        
        So the total cost for 2 months usage is $693 … and UNAVAILABLE for Vic metro as it's instore only since 100 points ID is needed …

- childchance on 10/10/2020 - 18:35
  
  I think it depends if you need that much data. $1217-$743 = $474, which is around $40 for 150gb a month. I dont know a plan that offers that much data (normally $1 per gb). Personally I'm getting rid of my internet ($60 a month) and hotspot off this plans.
DOGGYWOWWOW on 10/10/2020 - 14:04

I picked up the 5G model at Top Ryde today with the free buds. Seems the $10 offer every month offer isn't available anymore but I dont think it matters with ETC.

        brendanm on 11/10/2020 - 14:06
        
        @wisdom: Showed them on the website that it is no longer specific to the pre order, and that the phone is simply being purchased outright, therefore should come with the buds.

This was posted 3 years 6 months 9 days ago, and might be an out-dated deal.
