It's that time of the month again: Telstra Day. It's starting Thursday 7 October, and we're leading with $240 off the Apple Watch Series 6 range.

We've also got handset deals ready to launch, but I can't tell you about them until Thursday. I'll add the full list of deals the second I'm able to.

This is the third time we've done this, and folks internally at Telstra love that y'all get on board for a bargain. I've spoken to the team with a few of the questions you keep asking me, and got some answers ahead of the sale in the post itself (https://exchange.telstra.com.au/telstra-day-october-2021/).

Sale kicks off at 1am AEDT (store takes about an hour to roll over this many new deals!) on Thursday morning, and goes all day.

Mod Note: Based on Telstra's Apple Watch Series 6 Product Page

      Apple will stop selling Series 6 though, so in few weeks it will depend on if there are still have stock, color and material you want. Personally I’d pull the trigger with $240 discount

    • richmond12 on 05/10/2021 - 20:40

      Interesting.. what’s better from 6 to 7? Wonder if $500 is worth it

    • ndftz on 05/10/2021 - 20:44

      Is it worth 240 more ?

      • zed264 on 05/10/2021 - 21:25

        From what I read, S7 has bigger screen, brighter always on display indoors, more durable glass and quicker charging, and colors.

        Other than that, they basically have the same chip (even though the new one is named S7), and same health sensors, battery life, etc…

        So it’s up to you to decide if the differences are worth $240. Not to me.

        • ThePeterGriffin on 06/10/2021 - 07:09

          You can get the Wi-Fi version series 7 for that price. Not 240$ extra because it would be priced around 599$

    • entropysbane on 05/10/2021 - 22:45

      you might find there just isn’t that much old stock having around.

      and who knows, maybe apple takes them back.

    • cheapo123 on 06/10/2021 - 11:00

      This will probably be it, series 6 are not being produced as of 2 weeks ago.

      What ever is left will be it.

      I was one of the lucky customers who received the phone within 48 hours of purchase. Really sorry to hear that other customers were less fortunate.

    • cheapo123 on 05/10/2021 - 18:57

      i got it within 5 days after backoder

    • Kabin999 on 05/10/2021 - 22:12

      Mine still not. Talked to a girl on phone and she said at least another 3 weeks they will get and then will send it to my address. I asked her to give it in writing and she couldnot do it. So suspecion is, it may take longer than 3 weeks she was saying about.

    • ironik on 06/10/2021 - 12:37

      Mine did ship within 24 hours… but I was one of many people that had the unit number missing off the delivery address despite it being one of those fields where you type your address and it "matches" to the correct format. So failed delivery with no unit number, phone went back to Telstra and nearly 6 weeks later I still don't have a phone.

    • Squirmy Squid on 06/10/2021 - 21:42

      Ordered 2. Received one in 2 days, the other took 3 weeks.
      Both metro melb ordered 5 mins apart.

    Can we please get a deal on the Iphone Pro Max?

  • mapax on 05/10/2021 - 19:40

    iPhone SE 2020, as it seems that making requests that will fall on deaf ears is a thing to do in this thread…

    • entropysbane on 05/10/2021 - 22:48

      you really should go the mini (12 or 13) over the SE2. for the extra bit of dosh you get a covid caseload more features and performance in a lighter, larger screen phone which is actually smaller.
      the only reason for the SE2 to be a consideration is if you absolutely have to have touchID.

      • mapax on 06/10/2021 - 07:40

        Due to the ppe I wear at work touchID is kind of important. I’ve heard they’re working on Face ID that works with masks but I often wear full face masks that cover my eyes so I’m not sure it would work.

  • bne87 on 05/10/2021 - 20:06

    Does office works price match Telstra day?

    • cloudie9 on 05/10/2021 - 20:59

      No, I think lots peeps tried it before on the last Telstra day deals without success.

      Optus do price match. Talked on online chat and the guy said even though its not done online but if gone to store, they will do it.

    Is there a way to get Apple Watch 6 to work with Android (Samsung Fold 2)?

    • entropysbane on 05/10/2021 - 22:50

      just get a galaxy watch.
      it might not be quite on par overall, but at least it works with your phone.

  • Kabin999 on 05/10/2021 - 22:07
    +4

    If you want anything that you paid(mobile device, smart watch or anything) on deals like this from telstra, please remember the word "Patience" because you are going to need it in tons and tons.

    Bought 2 S21 from previous deals and according to them, it will take at least another 3 weeks for them to get the stock and thats also they cant guarantee or give it in writing. So good luck guys.

    So a Big NO for me this time and ever.

    • entropysbane on 05/10/2021 - 22:51

      says three days on the website. perhaps it is an issue fo the S21 only?

    • UrbionPT on 05/10/2021 - 22:51
      +3

      that's terrible, being a Samsung by the time you receive it you won't be receiving more software updates as they will no longer support it.

      • BargainBenno on 06/10/2021 - 12:58

        What more they do have stock as if you want to get an S21 on a plan they can deliver it overnight. I think they have a quota of handsets that they discount and once they are gone they wait till the next quota.

  • toobzy on 05/10/2021 - 22:56
    +7

    They tried 6 times to deliver a sim starter kit to my house and each time they sent it out without the unit number on it so it constantly got returned. Each time they said they would put the unit number on it but never did. It was pure luck I saw the courier out the front and flagged him down on the last attempt. And it still had no unit number on it but showed him my ID. I am not going through all that again.

    Only frustration and disappointment was ever delivered in the previous deal.

    Seemingly little focus is being placed on improving sales execution and customer experience.

      Gotta agree. I'm a Telstra customer and kinda wish I never heard of Telstra Day. My opinion of Telstra has taken a hit due to this debacle.

    New deals have been listed as part of Telstra Day:

    • iPhone 12 Pro 128GB - $1349 ($350 Off)
    • Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G - $1348 ($500 Off)
    • iPad Air (4th gen).- $999 ($100 Off)

      Meh…. Do you know how much storage the Ultra has? 128 GB was $1200 in the education store until yesterday.

      • ChickenAdobo on 06/10/2021 - 01:36

        Assuming it 128GB because 1848 - 500 off is 1348 on Telstra day. Education store is cheaper. Unless they magically lower their own RRP.

    • 2023 on 06/10/2021 - 07:27

      So basically the 'discount' the iPhone will be (or lower) everywhere now the 13s are announced, but they'll keep your money for a few weeks while waiting for stock?

    • CheapandUsed on 06/10/2021 - 14:51

      Oof, hope I didn't just spend $2 on a Telstra Prepaid sim just for that.

      Hoping to see the Galaxy S21 256GB for $672 (or less), or a deal on iPhone 12 128GB..

    • willyroo on 06/10/2021 - 18:57

      With the 'phones, they've updated the site to show you need to "add an Upfront Mobile Plan". Not quite so tasty…

    I’ve spent ages trying to buy iPhone deal on previous Telstra day deals.

    I’ve got a Telstra account that has no active service and my in laws Telstra account with active service. It always comes with verification error and try again later. Such a pathetic lack of detail of what’s wrong and consistent issue.

    And reading some comments I should be glad I can’t get their website to work because it seems like they can’t even post the stuff they sell.

    Stay away from Telstra

    Not sure if there is any particular reason .. but Telstra picks the wrong delivery address and I have been told they do not have a process to correct the address and resend the order.

      1. Get prepaid sim. $2 (but I got starter pack of $10 as someone said that @2 sim didn't work for him)

        Same address issue with Aug Telstra Day. I cannot understand how a so called big tech company have the shi—-est low tech back end that can’t even transfer a correct address from the order form to the dispatch label. Not to mention the incompetent support team that kept giving the wrong info/advice. They just made up anything to get you off the call…

      Not just for Telstra day but it also affected iPhone 13 preorders a few weeks ago as well. Got a delivery address that was completely random in another state (double checked that it was correct before submitting the order) and was a nightmare to deal with to get it resolved. Staying clear until they sort out their crappy system. Highly likely there'll be delivery issues again this time.

    But at least not as bad as the Bonds outlet sale, I ordered on 6/09/2021, they still havent shipped it. Cant get through to them via phone either, goes straight to a voice recording saying… "due to the recent success of our online sale, we are experiencing very long delays, our staff are currently working on processing them as fast as they can", then just hangs up on me.

    None of you are going to get answers to your questions.. this was obviously a pump and dump advert….

    Good luck with the address issue, it's still happening when you try and change your address in the profile section of My Telstra.

    It removes my unit number. Chat support said they have updated it but that can take 24-48 hours……

  • doweyy on 07/10/2021 - 00:06

    Apple Watch offer is live on the Plus Rewards store:

    • 1,800 Points + $504 for the 40mm or:
    • 2,500 + $552 for the 44mm.
    • Red and Blue colours only it seems (offer not applying to 44mm Blue however).

    S21 Ultra is 1,400 Points + $1440.

    iPad Air 4th Gen 64GB Cellular 5,400 Points + $984

    Might work out better if you don't want to deal with the Telstra store and have some points available to use (e.g the vaccination deal).
