CASHREWARDS

After solid negotiations between Cashrewards & Woolworths Mobile, we're happy to be able to bring back this exclusive deal similar to the pre-order sale of last month. Although it's $2 more per month, note it now includes an extra 2GB of data as a bonus. Woolworths has unfortunately had to cut back on the cashback made available to us specifically for this offer. We could have chosen a higher monthly rate with higher cashback, but we believe this will resonate better with our members and customers. Please ensure you apply coupon CASHREWARDS on the checkout page for a $13 monthly discount on the medium plan only. Offer ends 11:55pm Friday AEST unless sold out prior. Have fun :)

Note you must click out via this link before you purchase to be eligible for the $20 cashback.

Bonus 2GB data offer is valid on all approved Woolworths Mobile Medium (4GB) Phone Plan applications when you order the Samsung Galaxy S8 or S8+ between 2 May 2017 and 5 May 2017 via Cashrewards website only. Use promo code CASHREWARDS at checkout. Monthly cost for the S8 is $67 per month (min cost $1608 over 24 months) including a $17 handset fee. Monthly cost for the S8+ is $71 per month (min cost $1704 over 24 months) including a $21 handset fee. Downloads stop when data limit is reached. Data charged in 1kb blocks. Individual customers only. For more information on all plans and inclusions, visit woolworths.com.au/mobile

      Cashback will not be paid in conjunction with any other offer, voucher or discount code, or with any staff or student discount.

        Staff discount is bigger than the cashback anyway.

        • matt1395 on 03/05/2017 - 00:02

          How much is the staff discount? And how do you get it, just put the card number in the Woolworths rewards card section?

    • downhillar on 05/05/2017 - 02:34

      I tried it and you can't stack, you only get one or the other (i.e. you'll pay $75/month with your staff discount vs $71 a month with the cashrewards code).

  • StuBargainHunter on 02/05/2017 - 20:15

    Nice deal - I would be all over this one for the data if I hadn't signed up to the last one. I wonder if ww will entertain a switch :/

  • [Deactivated] on 02/05/2017 - 20:15

        ??

  • lostn on 02/05/2017 - 20:15

    This is not bad. If you need more data this is a better deal than the last one.

    But they are calling it a $13 discount, which sets the base price (of 6GB) at the same $80 pm as a few weeks ago which was 4GB. Does that mean their 4GB plan is cheaper now? The one they locked us into contract to only weeks ago for 2 years? Why did they cut the price so soon?

    • SaberX on 05/05/2017 - 22:35

      They didn't cut anything. The 4gb Plan is now + 2gb special, it apperas to be a woolies wide promotion. not cash rewards (which is the confusing thing).

      It appears the cash rewards bonus is the $20 cashback (IMHO nothing really) but $13 off a month (main thing).

      After friday 11:55pm I assume the plans become $84 for say the S8+ ($71 currently) and you don't get the $20 cashback. But you will still get 6gb. Seems to be a mid may ending promo on data. Wished they did 7GB i wouldn't be so torn. Currently 6gb seems rough.. i don't know how i used to get buy on 2, 3gb on vaya, and then subsequently bumped my way to 5gb on amaysim and felt like i was released. then 7gb and now 9gb on amaysim for ages. SO hard to go back now!

  • Giant Chive on 02/05/2017 - 20:17

    It's really torturing for me, also those without two years visa left, to see these tempting deals over and ova

    • glassyan on 02/05/2017 - 22:39

      Just curious, do they actually ask for your visa details to sign up to those plans? A credit check alone shouldn't provide them with your visa details.

      • Giant Chive on 02/05/2017 - 23:37

        yep they will ask you to provide your visa scanning pic

        • triplenet on 03/05/2017 - 00:37

          not , I am on visa as well under 2 years. as long as you have full Australia driver license. They will accept it :)

        Sold mine for $100 on Gumtree. Takes away from the total cost over 2 years to be something like:
        69*24 = $1656 —> -$100 for VR - $101 for Cashbackrewards = $1455

        Makes cost of the phone ~$1100 which is a ~20% discount on RRP on day 1 and the plan $15/month which is about what its worth with Kogan deals etc. being available.

        Plus a further ~1.5% off with Amex points redemption on gift cards = ~$20. But whos counting? :P

        • DaTa on 02/05/2017 - 23:23

          What do you mean Amex and gift cards? Can I use eight cards to pay for the plan?
          I like that calculation by the way I'm with tpg and buying phones outright 17 a month for 24 months and the price of a phone makes this tempting for more data and brand spanking new phone.

        • plasmapuff on 02/05/2017 - 23:29

          @DaTa:
          Pay for the plan using an Amex credit card for maximum points (over visa/mc/direct debit).

          If you use your points to buy Coles Myers, and woolworths gift cards etc, it works out to be approx 1.5% per $ spent.

        It can get a bit hefty when you use it for an hour every business day… used about 5GB in by the middle of the month. Of course that's due to the high quality setting…

      What phone are you coming from? My wife went from an S6 to the S8 and I went from the Note Edge to the S8+. I have medium sized hands and the Plus feels right. It can be a bit of a stretch one handed to reach the top or bottom but I find I just adjust how I am holding the phone and it's fine.

      I hold my wife's and although its screen about the same screen as my note edge it just feels too small!

      • donnot on 02/05/2017 - 22:17

        Going from an Xperia Z2 (just got it replaced, great phone but would like to upgrade). Worried about the size of the S8+ and therefore the increased chance of me dropping it, especially with the extra reach required. How are you doing on battery life? Relative to the Note Edge?

        • DVDGuy on 03/05/2017 - 00:50

          I went from the Z3 to the S8+, I don't find it too big and I have small hands. The reason for this is that the width is the same with these 2 phones, only the S8+ is taller. A bit heavier too.

          But I don't think I could live without the S8+'s big beautiful screen and the better battery life compared to the S8, so easy choice for me!

        • SaberX on 04/05/2017 - 02:38

          @DVDGuy:

          Did you mean the better battery life compared to the Z3?

          This is great - I'm on an xperia zz3 too so this is directly comparable to me. How is th ebattery life? For example my first time using my z3 i was getting 1-1.5 hours on the screen being on and browsing/tinkering with phone etc, would chew through 10-15% battery . Basically i got 6-7 hrs SOT on average without anything intensive in early days. It's since dropped and I find my reception isn't that great - i can't work out if it's optus (being amaysim) or my colorbond roofs out here, and being in new suburbs.

          Am very keen to hear if the z3 move to s8 or s8+ yielded better battery results. And especially size. I tried the sisters in law and I agree, the width is the same. Also longer - my only worry. Can't fully reach with one hand and i'm a decently large hand guy.

          THe screen size is humongous in compariosn as while both are the same width, the actual screens real estate stretches far further. My only worry is with it being longer (the s8+ ) it is bordering the realm or being man pockets unfriendly.

        • DVDGuy on 04/05/2017 - 20:09

          @SaberX: Better battery life compared to the S8.

          Being a new phone, and a larger phone with a larger battery, it's heaps better than the Z3. I no longer need to worry about playing Star Wars: Commander, for example, even in Performance Mode (QHD+ resolution), whereas with my Z3 in its current state, it will last less than an hour from a full charge at most with the same game (which, to be honest, chews through the battery on my Galaxy Tab S2 as well).

          Not to mention everything looks gorgeous in full screen mode on the S8+.

          In short, the S8+ is in a different league and makes the Z3 looks so outdated in comparison.

          @DVDGuy:

          Ahh ok, the endurance rating tests on the z3 vs s8+ on gsmarena seemed to be nearly same i.e. web browsing time (which I use as my hours of comparison, i assume that your browsing web or some basic apps so whatever hours they have here would mimick my SOT). The overally video playback time is higher though. THen again even the 10 + hours video or we browsing time for the z3 would never happen for me haha.

          I just realised you were comparing the s8+ to having better battery life than the s8. I thought/kept reading as if you were typo'ing saying the s8+ was better compared to the z3 - sorry for the confusion haha. took a couple of re-reads.

          If you go mid resolution do you reckon you'd easily get 6 hours SOT with just general app or web browsing, emails, viewing the gallery browser and so forth?

          More importantly do you find the signal strength/reception stronger? I find i struggle with reception at my house wiht the z3 and I've always had a sneaky suspision it was my mobile specific as opposed to coverage itself.

          Be interesting to note if you find the extra length comparably harder in your pockets than the z3. width is identical otherwise.

          WHAT I WILL be happy for - if i sign up - is moving from a 16gb sony without being able to sync my emails, to 64gb of internal storage. Assumedly i'll never run out of internal space to update apps and sync haha.

      S8+ is of similar size as for a 5.5" or LG G4. I would advise you to go for it, if you are using a 5.5" phone. Its a good size phone.

        I have an xperia z3. Would you consider it comparable? As z3 is a 5.5". I tried the s8+ and it was about same width, but longer. Just wondering how the 'feel' and comfort relates, esp for those who have z3.s

        • EnALup on 04/05/2017 - 09:44

          I have used G4 and I feel it more comfortable than that. Yes, it is slightly longer, but I don't mind that. It is a also little thinner, but the curved edges make it look good.

          Holding it is better compared to other 5.5 phones.

          Again it is a personal preference and I have not used S8, so cant comment on it, but I like s8+

          @Gaggy:

          Thanks. Realised the Z3 is actually smaller than a 5.5" screen supposedly, thought it was 5.5", but not according to GSM arena.

          I did get to hold the s8+ and it felt ok. Just wish I had time to try it in various positions, pockets, etc haha.

          @SaberX: True. Initially I used to hate 5.5" phones as they used to pop out little from few of my jeans or lowers. Its all good now. small screens are not that impressive anymore. Browsing is a pleasure on S8+ and videos are still to be made for this rate unless you dont mind stretching them to full screen and cut some part from top and bottom.
