This deal is not advertised. Only available via live chat or phone, but Optus will sell you the Nexus 6P (32gb) outright on a sim-only plan for $744 + ($30 sim).

You need to cancel the plan after the first month to prevent any subsequent charges. You are not locked into any contracts.

RRP from Google playstore is $899.

Update #1: After you've recieved your order you can confirm it's been accepted here: https://www.optus.com.au/shop/welcome?defaultTab=1
Update #2: You can track your order after Optus confirm it's been sent to warehouse 'Your order has been sent to our warehouse for packaging' on startrack with optus order number: http://sttrackandtrace.startrack.com.au/
Update #3: Some users are reporting they are calling optus in advanced, and cancelling the sim service. Saving $30 :)

          @Trantor: Great to know! My rep told me to look for one in Optus store, but I guess like you said, there would be none. I probably will order one from Google Store as well and let them to reimburse me.

          Just got a call from Optus: they have noticed that some of their customers did not receive the cases and earphones, so they will dispatch their missing products to us next week.

    Just bought the nexus 6p with a $30 plan from Virgin mobile in person, it comes with a clear case from Huawei (not that great quality, quite thin) and earphones too. You can cancel the plan after a month and just pay off the remainder of the phone.

  • Draco on 02/11/2015 - 15:19

    Whats the best way to cancel the contract best to do it in store?

    Edit: I have mine also its amazing really impressed

  • r0xz on 02/11/2015 - 16:15

    Got to ask the Optus support and you'll get a total warranty of 24months.
    12mths from manufacturer & 12mths from Optus.
    If contract is cancelled you will not be getting the 12 months Optus warranty

    • Trantor on 03/11/2015 - 12:16

      actually the warranty card with the phone says 24 month manufacture warranty

    Just bought mine from Virgin outright with no need for contract at $744. It comes with a Huawei Case and earphones as well as the phone but the staff said they're selling much cheaper and so the price may go up eventually.

    • RyanMK on 02/11/2015 - 18:59

      Do you mind posting a picture of the Huawei case? Or know if they're selling it separately in store?

      Thanks!

    • flyingpig on 02/11/2015 - 20:31

      Did u received USB cables , card eject sheet and google play music card as well ??
      And how much is warranty ? Also was it from a Virgin store or online ?

        I'll answer the other parts of your question when i open it but at this point, it was purchased at a Virgin store but it is currently available online as well.

        • flyingpig on 02/11/2015 - 21:35

        • lordra on 03/11/2015 - 12:11

          @felix26: What plan did you get it on?

          Over 12 months
          Without a Plan Commitment for $82 per month
          ($20 plan + $62 phone cost)
          $984 min. total cost over 12 months. Cancel any time. So cancel immediately so phone cost is $744? Is this what you mean?

    Just to confirm, I was able to walk into a Virgin Mobile shop today and buy the phone outright for $744. No plan or SIM card required. It came with the headphones and case as shown previously in this discussion. It also came with a GST Tax Invoice so I'll be claiming my $67 tax back at the airport next week!

    • StalkingIbis on 03/11/2015 - 18:57

      where at? Ill be doing that once my cricket credit card comes then ill get $250 back ^_^

    • enzioFirenze on 01/12/2015 - 10:10

      @juicejuice hey so according to the guys at virgin, they only give a basic receipt, I read TRS web page and it said the receipt needs to have the word 'Tax Invoice' and when I asked whether that is the case, they said no. How were you able to get a receipt/tax invoice that is acceptable for TRS?

      • enzioFirenze on 01/12/2015 - 12:04

        if anyone is still wondering, I was able to get a tax invoice from Optus.

  • Draco on 03/11/2015 - 17:28

    Do we pay upfront before delivery?

        +2

        Seems like you dont have to…

        Got this from chat:

        While processing the order you will not have to pay anything, and after first month you will have to pay for the phone outright it is $744 and the plan will be $30 every month.

        Which doesn't make any sense at all

        • Draco on 05/11/2015 - 22:37

          I have no idea still how they are going to bill me for this as they can't bill you unless you activate it. However I have cancelled the sum via phone already. Wait and see I guess..

      • qinwayne on 06/11/2015 - 15:07
        +1

        You make the payment after receiving the handset and SIM card. You can cancel the service if you want right after getting your N6P. Eventually you just need to pay the handset which is 745 ish…

        • McSync on 06/11/2015 - 20:45

          Did you buy from Optus? If you cancel right away don't you still have to pay for the $30?

        • qinwayne on 07/11/2015 - 00:08
          +2

          @McSync:I bought it from optus. I didn't realize I could cancel the service right away in the first place, so I probably used it for day or two. Even then, I didn't receive my bill yet. Then I called their rep and told them I was going oversea, so I need to cancel the service which they did. They did say they won't charge my service though. Today I finally received the bill after a week since I received my handset. The interesting thing about the bill is: the PDF shows I need to pay 744+30-1.5(some corrections I don't know), but their web only asked my too pay 744+1.5… I couldn't pay more if I wanted to. I also talked to their rep today and they said I was good. So, long story short, I guess you don't have to pay the service if u didn't use. Make sure to have the confirmation from their rep when you cancel the service. Hopefully this world help.

        • McSync on 07/11/2015 - 08:54

          @qw394003276:
          Thanks for the reply man. I chatted also but they recommended me to wait until the bill come, which I doubt because I thought better cancel before bill generated. Also I wonder what happens after you cancel the plan. Does it become pay as you go but still postpaid or downgraded to a prepaid service, or even the service just go inactive?

        • qinwayne on 07/11/2015 - 15:31

          @McSync: It just becomes inactive. No signal for my Sim card now.

        Shyam O:The phone needs to be taken on a contract though to get that

        Shaun:Sorry as it is under a corporate number I don't have an access to check on that.

        Shaun:What I can do for you is.

        Shaun:I would like you to get a new number with the $30 sim only plan month to month no contract.

        Shaun:And also you can pay for the Nexus 6P outright.

        Shaun:You can signup under your name on a normal account.

        Shaun:$30 sim only plan with unlimited standard and national calls and sms/mms, 1GB of data and also free calls to 13/1300 numbers, and unlimited international sms/mms to selected countries.

        Shaun:And the outright price of the nexus 6P will be $744.

        Shaun:Sounds good?

        You:But does the google play offer come with it? or was I misinformed?

        Shaun:Yes, if you signup with me you will get $100 Google credit.

        You:Ok that sounds good

        Shaun:Cool!

        Shaun:Let me get this arranged for you here

        Ok if you happen to find Shaun. He will do it for you
        Unfortunately the rest of those operators wont help you. Shaun also helped out Kyriacou48

  • Mozzlah on 10/11/2015 - 16:04

    Update #2. As kyriacou48 said

    You can get the Nexus 6p outright for $744+$30 month to month plan with a bonus $100 google play voucher that will be emailed or SMS to you within 14 days of activation of that month plan.

    Try to find Shaun as the rest of the operators want you to be on a 24month contract. I just ordered my phone and have the logs sent to my email and a screenshot of confirmation

    DIRECT FROM MY EMAIL

    Hi xxxx,
    Thanks for chatting with us your order for the Nexus 6P outright on $30 sim only plan month to month no contract is successful Your service number for Optus Mobile is xxxx, the order number is xxxx, you will get the delivery within 10 business days, and also you will get the sms/email regarding the $100 Google play credit once the service is active, you can also track the order online at www.optus.com.au/welcome

      Here is an extract from the chat I had:

      Shaun:And do you know about the Nexus 6P online offer?

      Shaun:You will get $100 credit for google play if you place the order here.

      Shaun:And no delivery charge.

      You:That sounds great actually.

      Shaun is clearly the people's choice. Even waived delivery for me.

      Glad I could be of help guys!

      • flyingpig on 10/11/2015 - 17:26

        Did you got your 100$ Google play credit.
        What If I cancel my SIM plan next day , Would I still get it ?? Thoughts !!!

        • Mozzlah on 10/11/2015 - 18:43
          +1

          He told me that you will receive it between 1-14 days once the service is activated. It will come in a email or SMS for your code
          I think if you cancel the SIM plan straight up the service isn't valid. I rather pay $30 to receive $100 than cancel and possibly not get the $100 credit. But you can risk the $30 if you like

    vodaphone have the 64gb version but getting mixed messages on an outright. Someone mentioned 994AUD then I was told 885AUD at another shop. Online chat came back saying not available for outright purchase. So a little confused.

    I am currently on the iinet $30 pm plan with BYO (HTC m7) and was looking to upgrade to the N6P. Any advise on which route to take? Outright or plan? I dont make too many calls but use upto 3Gb pm of data depending on if i am travelling that month or not. Otherwise i am usually on the wifi in the office or at home.

    Tempted to go with a plan but the only ones that offer a similar service level are above $80 pm. i wish iinet offered the N6P but they dont.

    HELP!

    Not sure if there's been a change of Optus' deal or what but I bought it today without having to go on the sim only plan. It was actually advertised in the store as outright price. Comes in a gift pack with Huawei headphones and case.

    • dazweeja on 30/11/2015 - 18:10

      I bought one outright for $744 too. No plan required. Very odd pricing from Optus - undercutting Google by $155 when I'm not even an Optus subscriber - but I'm not complaining.

          @DaiShan:

          Yes, it's not on the website but it's the official price in-store (although they might not do it if they don't have enough stock). If you find the phone in-store, written at the bottom of the piece of paper with the cost of the phone on Optus plans is 'Outright price $744'. I bought mine from Northland, Melbourne. I believe you can get the same price in Virgin stores but haven't checked myself.

    Can confirm also bought outright at optus, 744$ with free case and earphones.
    Not getting alot of 4g though. (Telstra)

    • [Deactivated] on 07/12/2015 - 12:41

      Did you get the patch update? try searching for the update manually if nothing has come through. Apparently there was an issue with telstra and the 6p but they've addressed it with the update. Let me know how it goes as I'm thinking of picking up a 6p (also on telstra).

      • ajh on 08/12/2015 - 06:16

        I recieved the update but i find that it still likes to stay between 3g and H. It does go to 4g occasionally but not as often as my g4 or note4 did. You can also really notice the lack of OIS and the basic google Camera app but i had a g4 previous to this.

        Also. If anyone else is still watching do you get MMS in a separate sms thread from the original?

        • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 09:08

          Hmm that's interesting. Anyone else on Telstra experiencing this?

          Are you happy overall or would you have just stuck with the g4, I'm on a n5 and only upgrading for want not need.n5 still performs fine.

          Edit: I came from N5 too. My two biggest issues with that phone were battery and flaky GPS. Both of which seem significantly improved with the 6p.

          @dazweeja: how do you find the size difference? still easily pocketable?

          @poop: well I upgrade my phone because of want and this phone is very nice but the g4 was excellent. In respect it's alot better than the 1+2 which i kept for less than a week. If you're going from an old nexus it's worth the upgrade but just keep in mind it's nearly 1cm longer than the note4. This is a premium phone and it does feel like it so go for it, You shouldn't be dissapointed. Resale value I believe is good for these phones if you don't enjoy it.
