        • Finally got the trade-in giftcards today. I requested a cancellation of the trade-in since the $400 GC promo is long gone and they replied in a couple of hours that they've cancelled the trade-in and the auth on my card will be lifted in a few days.

          It sucks, but it is what it is. I'm hoping for another similar deal soon.

          • +1

            @naisuda: Same. I've asked if they can still honour the deal if I bought now. They said they're checking and will get back to me.

            • @Arch113: I just did the same and they said they'd honour the deal!

              • @naisuda: Nice! They haven't given me the go ahead just yet. But this gives me hope :)

              • @naisuda: So I also got confirmation they would honour the deal. Didn't get a chance to buy the pixel 8 until today and noticed the price dropped and they are offering another $100 giftcard on top of that. Let's see if I can manage a double dip? :D

  • So technically, one can:

    Buy a new iphone 11, 64gb at 509 (28 day SIM plan) from the below:
    https://www.amaysim.com.au/devices/phones/apple/iphone-11

    Trade that iPhone in for 280 trade in credit + 400 trade in bonus?
    https://officeworks.moorup.com.au/category/phones/iphone-11/…

  • It seems like I can trade in my iPhone 6 for $5 , seems not too bad.

    Or I can trade in my iPhone 12 mini for 310

  • Can anybody suggest which phone would be the cheapest and most available on the second hand market in order to receive the trade in bonus?

    • iPhone 15 pro max 1tb.

  • +1

    Does anyone know how long the $400 gift card is valid for?

    Thanks!

  • I received a phone several years ago from workplace that I have now left. They didn’t ask for the phone back and I kept it. It has a trade in value of $5 now. If I use that phone for trade in purposes will that get rejected when they check the IMEI as technically the old firm would still own it.

  • I am quite confused. On Jbhifi website my iphone 7plus has a 10$ trade in value. Does it mean that I can get the 400$ voucher / gift card? Or my phone must have a 400$ trade in value to get the full gift card?

    • at JB, you will get $300 bonus gc+ $10 value gc for your phone.

  • I read through the entire trade-in promo page on Officeworks website it still wasn't clear whether the value of the trade-in phone will be deducted from the purchase of the Pixel phone at the counter or will it be given back in the form of a gift card in addition to the $400 gift card. Can anyone here confirm?

    • I read through the entire trade-in promo page on Officeworks website

      Did you though?

      Offer ends 16/11/23. Offer can only be claimed once per each Google Pixel 8 or Pixel 8 Pro model purchased from Officeworks. Claim (with Officeworks receipt and Moorup Trade-In online submission) must be submitted by 30/11/23. **$400 gift card will be issued by 20/12/23.

      You need the receipt of the purchase to claim the bonus.

    • Hmm, I thought the page was pretty clear.

      Step 1: Check the value of your phone, tablet, laptop or smart watch with just a few questions.
      Step 2: You'll instantly receive your digital gift card when you submit your trade-in.
      Step 3: Use your gift card on any product or service in-store.

      To me that means you will receive the value of your trade-in phone instantly through a digital gift card when you submit your trade in.

      The $400 gift card comes later as you know.

  • FYI - trade in refund and gift card can only be used in store, just went through the process.

  • Office work doesn't trade in pixel 8 pro, thinking to upgrade from 256gb to 512gb

    • do it via jb hifi

  • +2

    Thought I will give some update on the process I went through from start to finish.

    1) Saw dealbot's post on Fri the 10th (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/811021)

    2) Started the phone return on Mon the 13th (https://www.officeworks.com.au/information/about-us/peoplean…).
    Opted to not receive an instant gift card (mainly because I didn't want a hold to be placed on my credit card). Posted the phone via Australia Post the same day around lunchtime.

    3) Saw this current post on Tue the 14th. Checked my local Officeworks for stock and then went into the store on the same day and purchased P8P 256gb. Used the receipt to lodge a claim for Google promo (https://officeworks.moorup.com.au/promotion/google-pixel-8-o…)

    4) Received a message today morning (Wed the 15th) that my phone has been received and is being assessed. Received $400 Officeworks gift card today lunchtime in my email.

    • That's a lot quicker than we were all thinking. Thanks for posting!

    • What is the expiry date of the gift card? Some comments want to know.

      • +2

        Expiry is November 2027. So that would be 4 years.

    • I don't understand how you got your $400 gift card so early?

      I did up to step 3 yesterday, but still need to send my trade-in phone.

      I didn't think the $400 gift card came still much later (ie December?)

      • +1

        Yeah I was surprised as well. I was expecting at least a few weeks. They probably assess it as soon as they receive the phone and issue the gift card quickly if they are not too busy?

        • Yeah maybe, but in either case, good for you!

    • @Jetpck, by any chance, was the $400 gift card for your traded-in device value & not the additional $400 bonus gift card?

      • Yeah it most likely is. I am guessing it is for the traded-in device. Hard to tell because it doesn't say in the email what it is for.

        • What phone did you send in and what was the value of it on officeworks moorup?

          Does that mean you bought the phone without any gift cards from officeworks?

  • What if you don't send the old phone or a device, do they still issue a $400 bonus card if you submit the purchase receipt?

    • I got a response from moor up, if the device isn't sent, they won't give the $400 gc

    • +1

      if you want to game the system like this then goto JbHifi, they give the bonus gc instantly.

  • The phones are all OOS in my state now - I can order them in for delivery/C&C but I also want to use Ultimate gift cards to pay. Any tricks on how to achieve this?

    • +1

      Maybe give a store a call.

      I just bought a Pixel 8 Pro 256gb from the Perth CBD store, two hours ago. Guy said he had a couple of the variant I wanted, out back.

      When I checked online, most stores had 2 in stock.

    • You can ask the store to order for you

  • We are planning on buying 2x Pixel 8's and currently have 2x working phones to trade in where 1 is eligible

    So is the following correct if we make 2 transactions, on separate days?

    1ST TRANSACTION WITH TRADE IN
    Google Pixel 8 5G 128GB $977.00
    Trade In Gift Card for iPhone SE (2nd Gen) 64GB $90.00
    Total $887.00
    Saved (%) 9.21%

    Send off iPhone SE (2nd Gen)
    Claim bonus Gift Card Offer once received and assessed $400.00

    2ND TRANSACTION WITHOUT TRADE IN (Huawei Y9 Prime is not eligible)
    Google Pixel 8 5G 128GB $977.00
    Use Gift Card from 1st Transaction $400.00
    Total $577.00
    Saved (%) 40.94%

    Total Purchase Price $1,464.00
    Total Saved ($) $490.00
    Total Saved (%) 25.08%

    I understand the 2nd transaction date will depend on when the bonus gift card arrives

    • +1

      Offer ends 16/11. No chance you will get the gift card from the first transaction ready for your second unfortunately.

      • But OP can wait for a possible similar deal in two months or so and use the gift card.

    • Sell your Huawei Y9 Prime and make $50 - 75 :). Even more savings:)

  • I do not understand this process. Should I put my old phone for trade in. Purchase phone from office works. Where i need to submit receipts of purchase? I have booked trade in still device is pending to send. Will i be eligible for this deal?

    Seems like call centre and in store people are clueless when i asked about process and validity.

    Phone is also out of stock for back order from in-store.

  • I know it isn't flash but wild I can't trade in my A34. Certainly JB were happy to have it.

    • A33 is there. Maybe their database is out of date.

      • Damn! Must be, what a bugger

    • I traded in my 2014 iPhone 6. Crazy.

  • Does anyone know when the expire date of the bonus gift card is?

    • Four years, apparently.

      November 2027.

  • Does the old phone have to be sent out by today, or just have the trade-in process initiated?

    • Trade process initiated. You have until 8/12 to send in the phone.

      • But the other email says one week. Looking my comment below.

  • It's important that you send us your old Trade-In device by Thu Nov 23 2023. (as I submitted today)

    If the old device is not sent before Friday 8 December 2023 then unfortunately we will have to cancel your Officeworks Additional Trade-In Credit offer.

    The trade-in confirmation email and promotional bonus confirmation email have different dates, a bit confusing for me…

  • Got the 8 and a 8 pro tonight separate reciepts. Traded in Ipad Mini 1 and Ipad Gen 2 got 5 bucks each for them. Not bad for junk that was lying around was able to claim $810 in total which made these phones pretty cheap. Brought it on my c/c for price drop protection before Black Friday just incase.

    • Trade in any brand of smartphone to qualify for the additional Gift Card associated with this Promotional Offer

      I'm afraid trading an iPad won't be qualified

  • Bought the P8P and traded in my old P6. Got my credit for P6 and have the bonus $400. Bought the 128GB model for $1299. Do you think it's possible to initiate the return and buy a 256gb model and still get that $400 bonus?

    • Planning on returning the P8P 128 GB, and using the $220 credit + $400 bonus to buy the 256gb model while it's on sale

  • Google.com has the Pixel 8 Pro for $1299 as well and I could trade in my "as new" Pixel 4 XL (sells for ~$300 on ebay) … and the result on the google website was …

    Estimated trade-in value: A$39 !!!! <<<< What a joke

    … and on top of this :-O


    Your device's actual value will be emailed to you after it's inspected. PCS Wireless will return your device if the value is less than 75% of your estimate (under A$29.25).

    ID check needed

    To be eligible for trade-in, you must complete an ID check, operated by PCS Wireless and OCRLabs.

    [ ] I agree to share a picture of my Photo ID and take a selfie after checkout.

    We'll send an email with instructions on how to complete verification.
  • Got $300 for my old Macbook Pro (battery was not very reliable) and $90 for two old phones. At least they won't just be in a draw for another five years… With the additional $400 to be received in the next few weeks, that's a good deal.

    P8P 256GB 1377 - 300 - 90 - 400 = 587

  • On the 16th Nov, I bought the Pixel 8 from Officeworks, sent my old phone to Moorup, and filed the promotion form.

    I see the deal said "Offer ends 16/11/23".

    Any one know if purchases on 16/11/23 are valid for this?

  • Has anyone received their $400 bonus gift card yet?

    Not the trade-in value of the phone, but the bonus $400 on top of trade in value.

    My phone was received and successfully assessed by Moorup a couple of weeks ago.

    • +1

      Not yet. Same boat.

      15 Nov, Purchased and applied for bonus credit same day with invoice.
      25 Nov trade in device assessed and value given as GCs

      • I can't see any reason why they would delay issuing out the bonus gc's. Weird.

        I'm waiting for mine to buy a Christmas present. Wish they would hurry up.

        • +4

          Still don't have mine either. I emailed them and they just sent me an email saying that they'll be out by the 20th

          • @auskeek: 20 was what it said in the description when I thought was 15 from memory lol

  • Anyone got the bonus $400 gift voucher yet? From memory it said by the 20th but haven't got mine just yet, fingers crossed it comes through in the next few days

    • +1

      Still don't have mine as above. They got two days left!

    • +1

      Still waiting for $400 gift card too.

    • +1

      Still waiting.

      They've got one day left….

  • +4

    For anyone waiting on the $400 giftcard, I contacted Moorup and they provided the below response:

    Hi,

    Please note that we are in the process of finalizing and sending all additional gift cards. You will receive your $400 gift cards today.

    Kind regards,
    Customer Support
    Officeworks Trade-in (Powered by Moorup)

    • Legend thanks, fingers crossed they deliver.

    • Gift cards received!

      • Damn still nothing. They sent me the same email though

        • Finally came through!

      • Lucky you! I'm still waiting

    • They have 1.5hr more to send all of them unless they work after 5pm

      • Update: 2 phones on 1 receipt, received 1 out of the 2, I think I will need to follow up

        • I haven't received anything yet but no surprise as I never received the trade in value gift vouchers and had to contact them a lot about it.

          Did you receive yours via email only or was it email and SMS?

          Thanks

          • @OzBaggins: Received the trade-in GCs a few days after sending the phones and the bonus GC yesterday email only

    • Just received mine too.

  • Just got mine too!

  • Still waiting :'(

  • can you share the email address from where the gift card came through please.

  • +1

    Received mine yesterday.

    It came as two Prezzee gift cards - one for $300 and one for $100, from [email protected].

    Spent both plus $5 actual phone trade-in value gift card, at Officeworks this morning, no issues.

  • Has anyone not received their $400 bonus giftcard yet?

    • Only received mine today, have you got yours yet?

  • I received the gift card email with the $300 & $100 voucher but there is no hyperlink when trying to claim them

    The "Access $300.00 Gift Card" & "Access $100.00 Gift Card" are just plain text

    Anyone have a similar issue or anyone know how to work around it?

    I only noticed today because I was going to use it today on Boxing Day

    • Send moorup an email.

  • A bunch of tricksters , never going to fall for this gimmick in future again or buy from them. Sent my old fully working mobile for trade in, they kept delaying the process and sent a trade in confirmation on the last due date of submitting the claim so i had a window of 8 hours which i missed. They just want to rip you off on trade in and lure you in with the GC gimmick.

    • Only received my gift cards today, did you resolve this?

      • You are lucky…. I only got the following email…"We are truly sorry for the delay, please note that we are still investigating on the delay. kindly bare with us for few more days until we provide you an update. "

        • You can try call them on (03) 6361 0388, personally I had no luck and even left multiple voicemails where they never called me back.

          • @OzBaggins: But you did manage to get the GC :) They kept saying…checking….send us a the invoice…checking…wait…checking ….wait…..checking…give us a few more days.

            What did you do to make them process your GCs? When did you start chasing them?

            • @bobokingdom: I found the whole process flawed and frustrating. There was some sort of issue from the start as I didn't receive my initial trade in voucher instantly and had to chase them up too… So it was no surprise I didn't receive the bonus $400 by the end of their promised timeframe.

              Persistence basically & a lot of emails. For the extra $400 voucher I started chasing from 21/12.

              • @OzBaggins: It seems we are the only few who didn't get the vouchers on 21st December. Maybe we are just unlucky.

                • @bobokingdom: Seems that way! I wonder if we can get any compensation given they broke their own t&c's and didn't deliver on time…. Or is that too male Karen of me? Lmao

                  • @OzBaggins: Moorup support is kinda rude as well. They basically told me to RTF terms and conditions when I enquired the $400 payment before 21st December. If they have checked and confirmed, then they wouldn't missed my transaction which they claimed they didn't have record for it. Even now, they kept on tell me to wait for a few days, the words they picked weren't too professional either. Overall, Thumbs down for Moorup Support.

                    • @bobokingdom: Agreed, boycott Moorup they suck. I complained to Officeworks and nothing came out of it too. Hopeless.

        • ok , so out of no where , they sent me 100$ gift card and 300$ gift card. I stopped chasing them when they rudely sent an email reply saying no claim submitted no GC. Not sure what triggered them to show some respect for their customer but i am not pissed now. Not great experience but eventually bonus delivered.
