Similar to previous deals but this one works out to be better value long term imo since it’s $69 x 24 months - min cost $1,656….(previous deal that ended on 21st was $99 over 24 months with $1200 gift card)
150GB monthly bonus data ends 31/12/22
Great if you missed out on the previous deal and planning on buying iPhone 14
Edit: gift card is in fact $700
Agree
Got the same for 99pm for 24 months down to 79pm for 12 months then back to 99pm for 12 months after talking to Telstra with a $1200 gc.
How did you get it down to 12 months?

@Carrian: sorry but how does that work process wise? you go into JB and get a quote then hit up the telstra chat to haggle or ?
@iainmacsoul: sorry for late reply. no quote from JB. i signed up full price, and then asked over chat for the discount.
@Carrian: Thanks Carrian, interesting not something I had considered possible! Figured they would just say "you are contracted, do one"
Interested to know more but i find your comment slightly confusing.
Are you saying you had
99pm @ 24mo with 700gc changed to 79pm @ 12mo?
Then resigned
99pm @ 12mo with 1200gc??
How did you manage this? JB doesn't do 99pm @ 12mo
the min cost of the contract is $1656, so you want them to cover pretty much the entire 24 months of payments with gift cards?
Almost jumped on this till i saw 24 months lol
I know I had to mentally talk myself into committing to 24 months but it’s ok since Telstra service is decent…
12 months for $49 a month, 60GB + $150 gift card…$150 gc isn’t enough for me to commit to a contract since my month month was cheaper
Well , you'll just have to jump on something else !
Nope
Thanks but no thanks, $500 card for 300gb 12 months was awesome deal.
This deal is worst off than the $99 for 24months + $1200 gift card.
It’s worse off but honestly not terrible, especially if you don’t need that much data.
I did the math and it’s 0.$26/g/month without accounting for the bonus data and the 99 dollar deal last month comes down to $0.245/g/month. It’s comes down to be eve cheaper than the kogan 180 500g offer right now.
This is not a good deal at all.
Just got an email they are offering $700 gift card now
$1000 gift card and it's probley a alright deal
$59 a month after (telstra chat port in credit)
300gb a month
$1000gc
Yes. It's only worth a $1000 GC. Nothing less suffices
Is that was from directly Telstra or Jbhifi
I didnt understand the telstra chat port in credit bit. Can you elaborate a further i am keen to know.
Bad deal
I've realised these are only good if you want to buy something at JB. Took me a while to get it. Needs to be a damn good deal
I will be using the gift card to buy a new phone…so $700 off the new iPhone 14 isn’t bad imo
Yes but they've done these deals for either larger gift cards, or cheaper monthly costs before
I thought JB mobile deals weren't allowed for L platers due to all the sockpuppeting?
For the users negging me - have a look at the past JB mobile deals that were removed by mods.
You are also comparing broadband deals and mobile phone deals.
The mobile plan is still the same as last time
is that still active? shows "ends on 21/09"
Not the best deal but probably enough to scrape in all the people porting off optus right now.
Nooooo deal
24th contract these days needs wayyyy more gift card incentive than that in my opinion. 2yr lock in within competitive market, no dice.
Does the personal plan from telstra still allow sharing of data under same account?
better than nothing to port-in considering what happened to Optus recently…
Hi
I have seen these deals go around and havent pulled the trigger because of the locked in part.
I need constant reception for work as im always on the road and am scared of being stuck in a plan for 24 months if
i dont get receptions in areas of work
so Im curious if anyone has signed up with one of these JB / TTG / HN 24 month plan deals and needed to port out because of
reception issues and how did it go ?
Do you just pay the penalty for terminating the contract early or is there some sort of guarantee ??
While this isn't as good as the previous offer, I think I might need to get a new phone soon so looking at my options.
Can you use the gift card to buy a phone from JBHiFi? And the remaining amount if its more than the gift card value, is that purely outright? or can you add it onto the plan for a month by month pay off?
I signed up for 12mo contract instead on $69/mo plan. Got $300 gift card and $20 off for 12 months via Telstra chat. Seems to be a better deal considering they can only add the discount for 12 months.
Hey mate, getting an additional $20 off for 12 months sounds awesome. How did you go about doing that on Telstra chat?
Just asked them to apply $20 welcome port in credit for 12 months
Does the $10 port in credit work for the $49 pm plan as well? TIA
Worst deal ever for iphone 14
Vodafone were so sh!t that I pulled the trigger. Telstra chat applied a 6-month port in credit. Have seen them reject this on jbhifi deals, so wondering if anyone successfully got a full duration credit?
So gr8ful for all the awesome help n tips. Got an awesome deal in store(i think, go easy).
1500$ off, for the new fold 4 at 2499$ - 99$/month plan for 24months 300GB data. 1000$ out of pocket.
Straight off the bat, hit up Telstra chat and the first rep gave 20$ off per month. So 79$/month. On top, 150$ credit to use for International Roaming (5$/day for NZ, 10$/day for other countries) - 79×12 = 948$ + 99×12 = 1188$
Flew to NZ, GST refund 227$
Total cost - 1000$ + 948$ + 1188$ - 150$ - 227$ = 2,759$
Considering the phone is 2499$
Telco cost - 2759$-2499$ = 260$ for 24 months (10.83$/month)
Appreciate any feedback, cheers.
Hi All,
How long it take for me to get that offer after i port out from Telstra to different provider ?
How do you go to Telstra chat these days guys. When I log into the Telstra Web site, I don't see any option to start a chat. Is there a hyperlink or something like that ?
They're doing a $500 gift card now with the $69 plan. Was in JB just before, runs until Oct 5th. Sorry I can't remember if it was a 12m or 24m plan.
This $700 gift card offer was not advertised so likely now expired
It's on the 24 month plan for $500 at $69 a month.
Not such a good deal.
Works out to be about $48 a month.
Crap deal for a 24mths contract.
Should be $1600 GC instead of $600.
