so, like, 128gb for ~$699?
Can't see $500 bonus trade in credit. Any link?
It's there. Right under Payment Options is Special Offers
And not accessible by any means.
@RTX9090Ti: What do you mean not accessible?
Trade up to the Google Pixel 10 Pro and get $500 bonus credit. Deal ends 4 May. Trade In powered by Assurant. Eligible device and Telstra service required.
@RTX9090Ti: The $500 goes into your debit account. This was a comment from the linked previous deal. You pay $1199 first, get the trade in $500 (this gets credited to the linked bank card, then net $699)
Update: The $600 bonus credit is showing on my account now. I traded in my phone on 05/11 and the credit showed up yesterday 08/11. I can confirm the credit gets sent directly to your linked bank card, so purchasing outright shouldn't be a problem. In my case I have paid out the phone and cancelled the postpaid service with no issue. All up the cost for me was 799+70-60-600= $209 for the Pixel 9 Pro. Great deal!
@BargainsGrabber: That's great, I thought it was like a store credit for future purchase. $500 refund/cashback more like.
@RTX9090Ti: Per comment above, looks like the guy didn't buy it outright i.e. subscribed to a postpaid service, bout the phone and then cancelled. Hence, any credit balance in their account (mainly the bonus trade in credit) got refunded to their payment card. I might be wrong but from the comment pasted above by @BargainsGrabber thats what it looks like.
Also as per the trade in T'c & C's you may need a Telstra service which depicts the bonus trade in credit may go to your Telstra account:
"To redeem Trade-In credit amounts (including bonus credit), buy the Pixel 10/ Pixel 10 Pro/ Pixel 10 Pro Fold/ Pixel 10 Pro XL by 4 May and successfully complete a trade-in of an eligible phone in good working order by 4 June. Trade-In powered by Assurant. Eligible device and Telstra service required."
@OZBsince2018: Just saw this on the site, so you're correct. Trade-in credit goes to your Telstra account.
"To be eligible for trade-in, you'll need an active Telstra mobile service on a post-paid plan.
Your trade-in credit will be applied to this nominated Telstra mobile account."
Depending on the billing system, your credit will be applied by the second bill, or to your nominated credit/debit card within 30 days if you’re on an Upfront mobile plan.
https://www.telstra.com.au/trade-inSo if you're on an Upfront plan, it should go to your card, not your account.
@BargainsGrabber: I did the trade in deal for the 10 Pro XL on the 7th April ( there was overlap between the $500 off the XL and the $500 trade in) - traded in an old P7P - got $190, which was credited straight away, the bonus $500 was credited yesterday to my Telstra account not a bank account. I am okay with this.
@11112007: so even with an upfront plan the $500 was put onto your telstra account? If that's the case doesn't seem worth it unless you plan on staying with telstra
@bazz: Yes correct - the $500 is a credit on my account. (note:the plan is only "upfront" by name. Any existing Telstra customer can switch from pre-paid to pay on invoice by speaking to customer care.)
Also on your second point - yes its only worth it if you are a Telstra customer.
Not directed at you, but before there are comments about "telstra is a rip off" "go to boost or another MVNO" - you pay for what you get, Telstra Post-Paid have the most features (satellite messaging, fastest speeds, access to 5G SA) and highest network priority (in congested areas all Telstra post-paid services are preference ahead of other services - in this order Post-Paid>Pre-Paid/JB>Boost>Telstra Wholesale).I use to have a Boost service well, side by side at the Cricket over summer, my Telstra service 350mbps down, Boost, 0mbps didnt even connect.
@11112007: Thanks, seems like there is conflicting information further up how would you do this so the $500 goes to your bank account?
Unsure what to do after step 3
1.Sign up for the $70 plan ($50 off) with new sim
2. Purchase the phone
3. Process the trade in
4. cancel the sim?
5. Hopefully the money goes to your account?@bazz: I've got no idea how people are getting it straight into their bank accounts because with my scenario it just went as a credit on to my existing telstra account.
@11112007: Spoke with a store rep today - it should go on to your card if you have direct debit set up, and on your account if you pay manually / by invoice.
@dontpanic: @dontpanic did you buy outright or on monthly payments?
Trying to work out which method is best when planning to cancel the $20 upfront plan once the $500 bonus comes through.
@D1Vad: I went outright. Signed up to an upfront plan, bought the phone and initiated the trade in process. Took the phone to a Telstra store and returned the old phone. Got the phone value refunded in a day. Got the bonus a few days later. Both went back on my card (had direct debit set up). Will use the data on the upfront plan for the month before going back to my Boost 12 month sim.
If you're unsure, go to a Telstra store and get a salesperson to do it all for you.
Hopefully Google follows Apple and Samsung to ditch 128GB and start from 256GB with the Pixel 11 series..
At what cost?
Hopefully everyone can keep 128GB with the return of Micro SD Card slot.
No one wants your "deal" bro.
its not my "deal" its amaysim. its not like I'm getting commission out of it like the other Ali coupon guy.
With the trade in bonus here, I can get up to $650 for my old Pixel 7. So I'd have to be able to sell it privately for more than $250 to come out in front with Amaysim - which seems unlikely. And even then I'd be a generation behind.
Rumours already specify this. So most likely 256.
Do they trade in my old pixel 9 pro? And can the plan be disconnected after a month as they have 50 AUD off of the first month? Making the device at 1369 for 10 pro 256gb
Personally, I'm struggling to see the merit/value in upgrading from a 9Pro to a 10Pro at a substantial changeover price.
Consumerism, its an addiction.
I just placed my order from 9pro to 10pro, for the 1 year free Gemini.
Assuming Pixel 9 Pro 128 GB, it has $500 trade in value if in Good condition. Add that with the trade in bonus and you get another $500 off. So, the phone costs you:
$1349 - $500 (your phone trade in value) - $500 (trade in bonus) + $20 (Postpaid plan fee) = $369. You gotta consider whether it is worth buying it at that price. If you get salary sacrificing benefits, then it may turn out to be a better deal.
For me it was a Pixel 8 ($250 trade in value) and since I use it primarily for work anyway I was able to salary sacrifice and save about 35% on the $1349. So, for me it was:
($1349 - 35%) - $250 (my Pixel 8 trade in value) - $500 (trade in bonus) + $20 (Postpaid plan fee) = $146.85 ≈ $150.
So, I made the switch.
Does the Pixel 10 pro series worth the extra $400 from the recent 9 Pro $799 Amaysim deal?
Nuh. Pretty much same specs. Some new software features but these tend to make its way to older pixel phones in time.
But with a worthless trade in phone this is only 699 for the 10 pro, so this is better if you don't mind having a Telstra plan.
(Last time I bought a device from Telstra I got on chat and screenshotted then saying that if you land the plan you only pay out the discounted amount of the phone. Might be worth doing that.)
You don't even need to stay on a Telstra plan. Just sign up to one month @ $20 and then cancel when you get you phone/credits.
256GB for the non XL is 1349?
S26 utlra was recently selling for 1400. You should be big google fans to be spending this much on Pixels.
The Motorola signature for $899 destroys this as well
But but, the camera on this one comes down to the individual Pixel…
Can I trade in a damaged pixel 3 and get $500? Would they notice?
As long as the trade in value is >0, you well get the bonus
use the estimation tool, damaged phone some comes up with $0. and pixel 3 is not even in the drop down list.
I have a Samsung s21 256gb. Trade in $115 estimate using there tool, do you get the $500 credit on top or that is just the max for any phone?
You get that $500 on top
Thanks!
Any upgrade at the moment will be better than my s21. Is the pixel 10 pro worth it compared to s26 or waiting for pixel 11
Google's flavour of Android isn't as polished as Samsung's in my opinion. The cameras are nicer, but from my experience of using the Pixel 9 Pro video can be a bit hit and miss. Battery life wasnt amazing either. If you want something that's familiar, stick with Samsung. Wanna try something new, go with Google or any other brand.
Can you use the phone on a non-Telstra account? I have telstra account for my phone but want to get the 10pro for my daughter who is on Amaysim.
Yes, you can. It's not locked
Trade in only applies to ppl with a current post paid service with Telstra 👎
But if you sign up for a service first, you can then avail tradein or you won't get an option?
Can get one, cancel anytime. Worth it imo.
At what point in the process do you do the trade in?
It seems like I need to sign up for a plan and check out and pay the initial month.
So do I then submit the trade-in after that? will I still get the bonus?I am also wondering the same. If you can do that then it's awesome deal. Better than Amaysim P9Pro deal
Well I assume so. Might need to check with a Telstra store rep.
Trade in terms here:
https://www.telstra.com.au/trade-inAm I eligible for Telstra Trade-In?
To be eligible for Telstra Trade-In you must:- be 18 years and over
- be a current consumer or small business customer with Telstra
- have a post-paid service
- have a phone, tablet or smartwatch on an Upfront plan or with an existing 13-digit account number
- NOT have Upgrade & Protect
Looks like you can just get an upfront plan. Currently they have the $70 plan with $50 off:
https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/sim-only-plansIt's currently $20 for the first month of an Upfront plan - not hard to sign up with a new number and then cancel when you get the phone.
What are the chances of JB Hifi matching this? I don't have a tesltra account but this is a pretty good offer.
None for me, asked today. They will match the price,not the trade in bonus.
Thanks OP.
I was looking for the Pro, and not the Pro XL. The sticker price isn't huge, but with the extra trade in for an old Pixel 6 I think it's pretty sharp. That gives $100 plus the bonus $500 to bring it down to cheaper than the Pixel 9 offers, and even comparable to (less good) 9A deals.
I've enjoyed the Pixel line, and I think the 10 Pros seem pretty decent. The base 10 seems to be not much different to the 9, of anyone was considering that as an alternate.
To get the deal I think I'll need to grab a $20 Telstra SIM for a month. I won't bother porting my number though, just get a random SIM for the deal
I think you need to be on a post paid plan to get the trade in offer.
I have an active prepaid number with Telstra but it did not allow me to proceed with the trade-in using the prepaid plan.
Yeah, I thought I could force it with the chat saying I didn't need to. The store said no, and for $20 I didn't want to argue too much about it.
In the end I just paid the extra $20 for the single month of post-paid to get the deal.
Cool, at what point do you apply for the trade in.
It seems like you need to sign up for the plan, and the phone and pay for that initial month and then submit the tradein.
but I am not clear on how the bonus $500 gets linked to your phone purchase.@Augh: Yes.
I went in store and did both applications at the same time.
They gave me the phone, I paid the outright price plus $20 for a single month post paid. Then I applied separately for the return.
I thought this was the best way to do it because it's all noted on my account, and I got the phone without having to wait for shipping.
I expect at some point I'll get a $100 credit for my phone, and then the bonus $500 credit. The guy said they often come through separately, and not as one big $600.
In either case it'll go back on the card linked to my single month of post paid.
At least, that's how it should work!
@MrBlueSky: @MrBlueSky were the $20 + phone outright all done in the 1 transaction?
-or did you have to do the $20 upfront plan first separately?I am going to do it online and it allows me to pair the $20 upfront and phone together.
Also, did you get your credits back to your bank card?
@D1Vad: I did a single large payment in store of $1,369. This was the phone at 1349, plus the first month at $20.
I've got the $100, which was paid to my card. I'm still waiting on the remaining $500 bonus credit. As the Telstra staff predicted, these didn't come through together.
Timeline:
Bought the new phone on the 14th
Returned my phone on the 20th (handed it back to them in the store rather than post it)
$100 credit landed on my card today (22nd)
$500 credit, TBD@D1Vad: My timeline for reference:
Purchased 1 month postpaid plan @ $20: 13 Apr 26
Purchased the Pixel 10 Pro: 13 Apr 26
Pixel 8 Trade In: 16 Apr 26
$250 Phone Trade In Credit: 23 Apr 26 (invoice date 16 Apr 26)
$500 Bonus Trade In Credit: 23 Apr 26 (invoice date 19 Apr 26)Eventhough the invoice on 16th and 19th of Apr, it did not credit on my ANZ credit card until the 23rd of Apr.
All up with the trade in, my new Pixel 10 Pro cost is:
$1349 + $20 - $250 - $500 = $619@D1Vad: I got a notification that the $500 has been credited.
Like @hangryfordeals pointed out it was a couple of days between the email from Telstra, and the credit landing in my account.
I expect the second credit to land in a few days, at which point I'll cancel my service with plenty of time to spare.
There is a warning that the credit might take ~2 months to arrive. That seems like it's Telstra just being careful in case of delays, mine has been much quicker.
@MrBlueSky: Both payments have landed, so I contacted Telstra to cancel.
This was a bit of a pain (as expected), but I was able to do it via their messaging service. Quite a bit of begging me to stay, and asking why the service wasn't good enough.
Pretty good to not have to worry about porting the dummy number though.
@MrBlueSky: Thanks for that. So the first $20 - you did a port on the spot?
Do they then set up a telstra id for you, and they submit your request for a trade in at that point?@spa: I didn't port. I bought a new SIM with a new random number.
This seemed cleaner than risking a port in and port out of my number.
Can I return a tablet or watch to get the bonus, as long as it's in the list of devices?
Yes
Why The neg? The trade in options show you could tablet and watch options as well.
I was pretty keen to get on this for a 256 pro but it seems trade in credit is credited onto the billing account and not the bank card?
Can anyone that's done it this round please confirm?Also it the trade in estimate section it has Pixel 6 but not Pixel 6 pro XL does that mean my device is not eligible for trade in?
There is no such thing as a pixel 6 pro xl, maybe you just have the pixel 6 pro.
Hopefully someone can shed some light on the credit going to a bank account instead of just your telstra account.
Ahh maybe that's why oops.
Combination of the new naming systems they have and me thinking this phone is too damn big for me these days had me thinking I had the XL version.
Thanks for that.
It can definitely go to your bank card, I have done it in the previous deal. Can't recollect for sure but I believe if you have linked a card to your billing account, credit goes to the card instead of the account.
So just to confirm you have an ongoing post-paid Telstra account and continue to use Telstra?
You have a bank card linked and it went to your bank account and didn't get added as credit?
I didn't have any Telstra plan. I signed up to an Upfront plan as part of the similar previous deal, paid upfront for the phone, card was linked to the account as part of signing up of the plan and purchasing the phone.
Credit then got posted to my card linked to the account in a couple of days after completing the trade in.
@dealsgrabber: Did you wait for the phone to be delivered first? Or did you complete the trade in form after you received order confirmation? On the trade in confirmation page, it currently only shows a bonus credit for s26 series. On the trade in landing page, it shows a Motorola bonus only.
I'm fine with signing up to an upfront plan like you did, but don't want to be jumping through hoops for the $500 later if I somehow miss a step
@ILIKEMANGOES: No need to wait for the phone. I did the trade in as soon as I got back home from the store.
Here is a link to the similar previous deal. You can read all the comments, will answer a lot of your questions:
@dealsgrabber: Thanks, do you still currently use that Telstra Plan? or did you cancel after one month?
what if you don't send them the tradein device?
You dont get the trade value or the bonus at all. This isnt like Samsung where you can bank the bonus without sending it in haha.
Is there a way we can claim this lesser amount after trade value to tsa?
The phone is already discounted by $500. If you buy it on the plan then it discounts by $600.
The additional are trade in bonus. You can choose not to do it and you will be paying the just the flat discounted amount.
Is this what you were asking?
I don't that's what they're asking. I think they want to do the trade in to get the $500 credit + value of their trade in phone. However, they want to claim TRS for the amount after trade in and credit so that they are under the $900 threshold when they return to Australia.
@RQNinja don't think it's possible as they wont issue another invoice after the credits are issued.
This is correct. I talked it all through with a Telstra rep in-store yesterday. I wanted an invoice for the full amount ($1199 for 128Gb 10 Pro) and he confirmed that's what I'll get.
For anyone reading this, I'm putting the phone on a salary package so my cost is:
$1699 - Pixel 10 Pro
$70 - one month post-paid account
$30 - fee for setting up salary sacrifice
= $1799
minus
$ 500 discount
$ 500 trade-in bonus
$155 trade-in amount for iPhone 11 Pro (confirmed with rep I'll get this after he looked at my phone)
$ 50 promotion on first month of post-paid account
$ 440 tax savings for salary sacrificeSo to trade up from a manky old iPhone Pro to a new Pixel 10 Pro is going to ultimately cost me $154
@ozish123: My maths was roughly similar. I could replace my Pixel 7 battery for $100 or move up three generations and across to a Pro for $150. No brainer really.
@dontpanic: Just did the whole thing in store. So much faster with the rep there to do the paper work and trade in app.
Now waiting for 500+350 back.
All up $500 for a new phone of around $1500-1800. I'd say that's a bargain.
I just traded in my device, I thought the original person I spoke to when buying mentioned it'd take around a week to get my bonus and trade in, but the person today said it would take 2 months. Which would mean I'd have to pay $140 in bills?
You will get it within a week at the max.

There’s also a bonus $500 trade in credit
