[Pre Order] Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 512GB $437 ($237 With Code) on JB 24M $99/M Plan (in-Store, Port-in Customer) @ JB Hi-Fi

2360

*For those that are seeking a $200 code there are some in the chat that have had success by asking the JBHIFI live chat and tell them that you lost the $200 code in your email, there are some that have received the $200 code a day later in their email as it seems they’ve added them in to send a code.

$1700 off the new s25 Ultra with the $99 p/m jbmobile plan if you port in.

$237 is only if you use the $200 samsung signup promo code otherwise it’s $437. As this is a mobile plan you go in store to signup, show them the $200 preorder code they should give you the further discount.

Plan : $237 ($437 without code) + $99 p/m over 24 months.

If you cancel: $237 + $800 + $99 =$1,136 ($1037 if you can get first months charge refunded)., you will need to pay the voucher repayment fee as stated in terms

Voucher Repayment Fee

6.2 If you received a JB Hi-Fi Voucher when you purchased your Mobile Service and you cancel
that Mobile Service within any applicable Voucher Term, you must pay us the outstanding
amounts for the JB Hi-Fi Voucher you received for the cancelled Mobile Service (the Voucher
Repayment Fee).

6.3 The Voucher Repayment Fee is a pro-rata amount, equal to the total amount of the base
Voucher divided by 24 and multiplied by the months (or part months) remaining in your
Voucher Term.

Max cancellation fee is $800. The $99 first months charge In past deals I’ve usually got this refunded though if you’re really nice, but be aware in case if you are unable to get the $99 refunded. T&C: https://www.telstra.com.au/help/critical-information-summari…

Also keep in mind this deal is for porting in your number, so if you’re planning to cancel you could get a $5 Aldi sim and port in with that.

    Will it affect your credit history if you cancel the plan with JB after a month or so?

    • Not if it’s your first time

      Not sure why the downvotes on very valid question. It DOES impact credit score and that's based on my firsthand experience. Had bought S24 Ultra in Dec last year and score tanked 49 points! Raised with concern credit bureau company to check why such drastic reduction with telstra credit inquiry and response was that it's valid reduction and nothing can be done. This is with ilion and will be checking experian tomorrow and will get to know how much is the dent.

      • Thanks mate.

      • @bhavesh8sep So did it affect your credit score?

          • @G-rig: I'm curious how much it drops, not whether it makes a difference or matters.

              • @G-rig: Im not buying it. I was just curious how much it might affect the score for other reasons so no, i cant do a rating before and after.

        • @8azinga: Tanked by 49 points in illion but still in excellent. No impact on Equifax band and still in excellent(wouldn't know if score got reduced as not subscribed for that as it's paid). And no impact on score in experian.

          • @bhavesh8sep: Can this affect your home loan approval?

            • @BluebirdV: Just one credit inquiry will not cause significant dent for your home loan application, as banks check holistic score when you apply for the same. Banks are interested in knowing where you stand in respect of score and if you are on border and this kind of credit inquiry pushes you to lower band then it surely affects.

              • @bhavesh8sep: What credit score is border?

                • +1

                  @BluebirdV: Below is equifax credit bureau bands. Illion and experian have their own bands. You can check where you stand in all these three bureaus. You can get free reports every three months.

                  Excellent: 853 - 1200
                  Very Good: 735 - 852
                  Good: 661 - 734
                  Average: 460 - 660
                  Below Average: 0 - 459

    I didn't get any promo code despite of signing up? How it reads like?

    • +1

      same. maybe a 1st day backlog

  • I signed up for preorder bonus a while ago but nothing received.

  • Are there any more links that are still live regarding these voucher codes?

    Is it a generic voucher or a standard voucher?

    https://ctrk.klclick1.com/l/01JGYYPG18FZ1FAZHZ8EZAKVWG_4

    The above is the JBHIFI email

    and the Samsung one doesn't seem to work and redirect to the home page so was curious if anyone has any live links

    Yeh I received my exclusive eVoucher $20 that I paid for. Never received the $200. Whats the title of the email?

    • +2

      Samsung's Galaxy2025 is the code for $200 discount. Jb hifi one for pre-registration was a unique one came via email.

  • +1

    So the plan is to go to a JB store, sign up for the S25 ultra plan + show the Galaxy2025 code, get the phone and then a week later cancel via live chat? Any tip for the cancellation conversation?

    • +1

      Nice question, really needed someone expert answer to it

    • +1

      My friend contacted their support chat and complained about the lack of reception.

      • +1

        Good idea. I genuinely have no coverage when parking at local shopping center with network other than Telstra

        • +1

          They are not gonna check, to avoid unnecessary troubleshooting bs in the chat, just say that you don’t get any coverage at home, even though you got perfect coverage with your previous network provider.

    • +12

      Hi, I would like to cancel my plan please. I'm an Ozbargain professional.

    • +2

      After signing up,simply port out to another network and plan will be automatically cancelled. Alternative jump on JB Hifi App and cancel via chat

  • This deal is for port in number only.

  • +5

    Title is misleading - needs to be corrected

  • +1

    Can you/anyone please let me know where it's known that the max cancellation fee is $800?

      • +1

        Doesn't say $800. Says this instead:

        What happens when I cancel my plan early?
        You’ll need to repay Telstra for any vouchers you received when you purchased your plan. The Voucher Repayment Fee (if applicable) is pro-rated, equal to the total amount of the base voucher divided by 24 and multiplied by months (or part months) remaining in your plan term.

          • @jimojr: Except that from the JB HiFi site it says

            referred to as the "JB Hi-Fi Voucher" in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summary

            • @marshmall0w2: It replaces the voucher amount (which is standard as $800 in the CIS) but it doesn't replace the "Maximum voucher repayment fee" which is listed just after.

        • I believe it's under "Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee", in this case it would be under the "Premium" column.

          • @LostyJai: Does this only apply to Telstra customers with no new account? Can you create a new account?

    • New to this. (new to the country as well).
      How can I actually cancel this with paying this fee ?

    • Here we go again

  • +2

    I haven't have my coffee yet

    Listed price of 2137- 1700 = 437? Before the pre register coupon.

    • +1

      Thats how i see it.
      Just need to confirm if JB will accept the $200 coupon when pre ordering with $99 plan.

      If they do its a deal and a half

    • Oh man, I’ll update it haha. I think my lack of coffee did damage to my maths.

      • +1

        All good mate, It just turn out to be a better deal than expected!
        Finger cross that they accept the pre register coupon!

        • They absolutely will accept that imo it was plastered all over their Samsung page for the past week or so. In comments above someone said in the email you have to show in person if you do in store.

  • -1

    The terms have changed since previous deals. Do not assume the cancellation cost will be $800

      • +2

        The $1700 off the purchase price of a Samsung Galaxy Ultra phone(referred to as the "JB Hi-Fi Voucher" in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summary) will be applied to the purchase price of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra phone and available to you instore after connection approval by Telstra. If you cancel or move to a lower cost/different plan then you must pay a Voucher Repayment Fee to Telstra pro-rated against the remaining months of your plan's minimum term.

        Voucher Repayment Fee
        6.2 If you received a JB Hi-Fi Voucher when you purchased your Mobile Service and you cancel
        that Mobile Service within any applicable Voucher Term, you must pay us the outstanding
        amounts for the JB Hi-Fi Voucher you received for the cancelled Mobile Service (the Voucher
        Repayment Fee).
        6.3 The Voucher Repayment Fee is a pro-rata amount, equal to the total amount of the base
        Voucher divided by 24 and multiplied by the months (or part months) remaining in your
        Voucher Term. For example, if received a voucher with a 24-month Voucher Term, then in:
        (a) Month 1: You will need to repay 23/24 of the Voucher you received;
        (b) Month 12: You will need to repay 11/24 of the Voucher you received; and
        (c) Month 23: You will need to repay 1/24 of the Voucher you received.

        Please put a warning, in case people get caught out by this

          • @G-rig: So what do you do if the staff tells you it's $1700? How do you argue it should only be $800 max repayment?

            • +4

              @marshmall0w2: You dont need to argue with the staff. Just say yes to everything to get the phone and leave the store. When you cancel, you are contacting their cancelation team (not in store) and it'll be 800

              • -1

                @niggardly: Are you sure? JB HiFi T&C's say

                referred to as the "JB Hi-Fi Voucher" in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summary

                So the $800 is replaced by $1700

          • @G-rig: Yeah the staff told me that when I got my S24 FE and I just got home and cancelled via mobile app chat.

              • @G-rig: I read it won't be available before Feb so not sure if stores have any demo phones. I will go find out today

    • +2

      Dont open the box if full fee return it.

      • really? will they give the 1700+200 in voucher form? and the other $237/437 gets credited back to the payment method?

    • Where are they different?

      Max repayment fee is still $800 when i looked

      • Where does it say max is $800?

        I'm reading this

        What happens when I cancel my plan early?
        You’ll need to repay Telstra for any vouchers you received when you purchased your plan. The Voucher Repayment Fee (if applicable) is pro-rated, equal to the total amount of the base voucher divided by 24 and multiplied by months (or part months) remaining in your plan term.

          • @mikey43: From JB HiFi:

            referred to as the "JB Hi-Fi Voucher" in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summary

            $800 is replaced by $1700

            • @marshmall0w2: Where does it state this?

              • @mikey43: On the same page as the JB HiFi port in deal

                • @marshmall0w2: What happens when I cancel my plan early?

                  You’ll need to repay Telstra for any vouchers you received when you purchased your plan. The Voucher Repayment Fee (if applicable) is pro-rated, equal to the total amount of the base voucher divided by 24 and multiplied by months (or part months) remaining in your plan term.

                  • @mikey43: And max voucher repayment is $800

                    • @mikey43: If you cancel after 12 months you pay pro rata amount of the 800

    Apologies everyone my bad maths after sipping my morning coffee it’s even cheaper it’s actually $237. also admin feel free to edit update deal .

      Mate. What is the $200 code you keep talking about?

      • +1

        Pre register with jb and they sent out a $200 coupon

        • +2

          Damn, was it ever posted on ozb that JB is giving out $200 for preorder?

          • @CodeXD: Not sure to be honest, email from JB was early Jan if memory serves me right.

          • @CodeXD: yes, they did, I can't find it though. It wasn't the main deal listed, it was listed in the description.

        • this is different from the samsung pre-register? might explain why im not seeing anything, but confused with the comments as some are implying the samsung code will also work

          • +1

            @perfectlydark: What annoys me the most is any of the people who signed up could have posted the deal but no one did.

            • +1

              @CodeXD: yeah. im gonna try with my samsung code (assuming it arrives soon) but to be honest $437 is pretty good as is, but cheaper is better. I might even stay with the plan for a bit, not much more than my ripoff optus plan and much better all around. oh an i can trade in my damaged s22 for $113 apparently, since im not even handing this one down might as well

  • -1

    it you cancel or move to a lower cost different plan then you must pay a Voucher
    Repayment Fee to Telstra pro-rated against the remaining months of your plan's
    • This offer is not available in conjunction

  • If I want to get the 25+ (not ultra) on the plan and then cancel, will it still be $800 + $99 (First month phone plan)?

  • Does anyone have the previous T&C from these sorts of plans? I recall that they had said something similar but then Telstra still has the $800 cancellation fee!

  • +1

    Was the $200 discount code issued by Samsung or JB?

    • Samsung and the code is: " GALAXY 2025"

  • -1

    Website link CLEARLY states the $1700 voucher will be pro-rata against remaining months 1700/24 * 23 = $1629.17.

    Don't fall for the incorrect info.

    • This, it clearly states the $1700 voucher replaces the voucher fee in the CIS

      • Where does it state that the $1700 replaces CIS voucher fee?

        Edit found it:

        referred to as the "JB Hi-Fi Voucher" in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summary

        • Actually nvm, I don't know the pdf still states $800 maximum repayment

          • +1

            @ubiq: The Telstra still states $800 maximum voucher repayment, but JB HiFi overrules this clearly on their T&C's by stating their $1700 voucher replaces the voucher value of Telstra.

            • @marshmall0w2: they are very sneaky saying "replaces the dollar amount of the voucher", they can always say the replacement applies everytime voucher is cited including maximum "voucher" repayment

            • +1

              @lawyerz: What does this mean? The voucher value is now JB HiFi's $1700 but the max repayment for cancellation is still $800?

              • +1

                @marshmall0w2: it means profanity these companies for making people jump through hoops just to buy these phones at a reasonable price.

            • @lawyerz: It says $800 max repayment on a $800 voucher, clearly if the voucher is $1700, then that condition would not apply.

              Go ahead if you are keen, I'll save my money.

  • +1

    The term and condition pdf on JB Hi-Fi says that it was last updated on 02 JULY 2024. So this trick should be fine.
    But do we cancel the plan before the phone is delivered on 14th February? Is there any risk with delivery if plan has been cancelled.

    • -2

      I suspect they won't port the number until you've actually received the phone. Best to confirm with JB staff.

  • So confused - how do you get this extra $200 off? Link?

  • +1

    Compare to RRP, fat margin on these phones.

  • Isn't the $200 already factored in the pre-order price of $2,137 vs $2,337 price after pre-orders end….!!!!!

    • No. It stacks so 1937 for 512GB
