      Can you point us to that link? I'd be happy with $70
      I can only see $70 for 15GB.

      • srhardy on 31/05/2017 - 16:58

        Just called telstra and talked to disconnections (I had a prepaid SIM i wanted removed) and they offered me the deal

  • mrtin on 24/05/2017 - 10:48

    i am at the end of contract. i was unsuccessful with rolling over to this deal via all channels :(

    • lostboi on 24/05/2017 - 10:58

      port out to another provider, and port back in?

    • srhardy on 31/05/2017 - 16:59

      1) you need a telstra emplyee to sponsor you
      2) you need to port out to vodafone or optus and then port back in

      good luck

      • mrtin on 31/05/2017 - 17:51

        Thanks. I will wait for another deal then as i cant port out port in. Cheers

        I didn't need either, just asked for disconnections.

        • mrtin on 01/06/2017 - 20:37

          Guys thanks for your comments and replies. I gave it one more go and ended up getting s8 paying $85pm for 12gb. Thanks ozbargain

  • sydney.jj on 24/05/2017 - 15:20

    signed up four days ago for their $70 plan, and now want to change it to this, telstra told me theres no cooling off period for the online signup ??? anyone can help?

    • neil aus on 24/05/2017 - 18:12

      Cooling off periods are generally for when someone has called you, or knocked your door.

      • sydney.jj on 24/05/2017 - 18:38

        so theres nothing i can do to change it?

  • singhdeals on 25/05/2017 - 10:02

    So now that the plan switch is over and my service on changed plan is up and running, it's time to share my little success with this offer.
    - I had a chat with disconnections a month or so ago and they had promised me $20 discount if I chose to renew my 2 year contract (Luckily, I had saved the interaction number)
    - I was in my final month of contract and as luck would have it, stumbled upon this post
    - Thought of having a chat with sales rep from the 24x7 chat option on the offer page. I didn't had much hopes but again got lucky with a awesome rep on the other side who let me get it eventhogh a recontacting customer
    - Called Telstra next day quoting $20 discount interaction I had previously and they applied the $20/month off on top of this deal
    - So I ended up with this plan effectively for just $70/month!!
    I love Telstra!!

    This might be very hard to replicate as I had loads of luck and coincidence go my way. But worth a try if someone has any pre-existing recontacting offers by the disconnections guys. Just be nice and friendly and test your luck. Cheers!

    • ricochet on 25/05/2017 - 10:24

      Well done. I tried a couple of times to move a prepaid number over to this without success, so will have to go via a port to Optus and back if I want to take it up it seems…

      • plague69 on 27/05/2017 - 15:31

        Problem with that is some people are on $20/month discounts… Porting would mean loosing those discounts.

        Guess I'll have to give it a go -_- no more special tips?

  • mooreshady on 25/05/2017 - 13:22

    I already signed up and waiting for shipment, can I ask for the 25% staff discount before I activate it? I think I can befriend a telstra employee tonight or tomorrow.

  • payton on 25/05/2017 - 13:32

    Would have been an instabuy for me if it was the S8+

    With the new Note coming later this phone is going to feel a bit teeny on the hand. The S8 already looks small when placed beside the 8+

    Plus, with 25GB I can disconnect my ADSL and save on line rental and home internet.

    • srhardy on 28/05/2017 - 20:27

      You MIGHT be better off on an OPTUS offer as you get free stand def, streaming of netflix. 25gb does not last long streaming!

  • squarepants on 25/05/2017 - 17:10

    Looking for Telstra employees too.

    I got the phone (S8) today and looks like its locked to Telstra network. I want to sell it without opening the packaging. Can anyone confirm its locked the Telstra?

    • ricochet on 25/05/2017 - 21:33
      +2

      Ask on the online chat and let us know? Even if locked, should be a free unlock since it's on a 24mth plan - thought those were usually unlocked as they already have your money

      • Any thing on 26/05/2017 - 07:01
        +1

        I've only ever known Telstra to lock their prepaid phones and as far as I can see they don't offer the s8 on prepaid. They do brand every phone they sell though except iPhones.

    • ricochet on 01/06/2017 - 14:43

      The S8 is fully unlocked.

      I got this answer from their live chat:
      "I can confirm that all units of Samsung Galaxy S8 is already unlocked with our network. That means you can use it with other SIM anytime and anywhere."

  • Economic on 26/05/2017 - 09:37

    Hi All,
    I ported out to Optus, immediately signed up for the offer and my phone being delivered today.
    What a cracking deal.
    Thanks too all for your help

    how strictly is the "employee name must be provided" thing being enforced?

  • payton on 26/05/2017 - 15:03

    Optus have countered with a similar deal

    $5 less for 15GB/month quota

    Telstra, pretty please include a bundle for the S8+ and a combo for bundling home broadband, line rental and this.

    • srhardy on 28/05/2017 - 20:25

      "when you add a new additional mobile service to your existing mobile account ~ with optus."

      The Telstra offer does not need you to be 'adding' and additional service to an exisiting account.

  • eurodave on 27/05/2017 - 11:01

    @Secrets85 I am wondering whether this deal might provide a sideways path to an iPhone 8 quite cheaply with Telstra…
    The 'New Phone Feeling' appears to be available on this plan. Sooo you can start with whichever phone you like on this plan, and use the New Phone Feeling in 12 months time to upgrade to iPhone 8 for $150.
    Do I understand this correctly?

    • Skids andy on 27/05/2017 - 14:33

  • Patkin on 27/05/2017 - 16:39

    Does anyone know if I sign my partner up to this deal, whether we can share data between our plans? I signed up to the 10gb BYO unidays deals a month back and would like to get a bit more data….

    • eurodave on 27/05/2017 - 17:12
      +1

      As far I know, you can share data between any combination of Personal plans. I added this plan for myself, and now my data limit is shared between the two Telstra plans.

    • Associatedmechman323 @ Telstra on 05/06/2017 - 22:30
      +1

      As long as you and your partner are on the same post paid billing account (BAN) and both your plans start with "GO" eg. Go Mobile Plus, Go Mobile Plus BYO then yes the data will pooled into one amount and shared between any and all services on that BAN.

      If you are going to do this if you want your partner to have access to the account you will need to authorize them as a user or authority on the account.

  • plague69 on 28/05/2017 - 12:54

    :( Anyone else have any luck with using existing account and loyalty discounts?

    Am Telstra Employee.

    Just letting everyone know there has been an update to a few of the T&C's regarding this offer.

    1) No longer restricted to 5 connections per employee.
    2) No longer required to capture employee number as part of the order
    3) We are allowed to share with family and friends via social media. Thus the update post.

    Thanks all.

    • srhardy on 06/06/2017 - 16:04

      But you still need an employee number as part of the order at some stage to qualify?

      • Associatedmechman323 @ Telstra on 06/06/2017 - 19:18

        No. Not needed if your taking up this deal on $90 p/month. The Customer advisor, in store, over the phone or online can provision it for you.

    • user220846 on 07/06/2017 - 21:37

      Did not work. They haven't updated the T&Cs. Can you please give us a updated link. Thanks.

      • Associatedmechman323 @ Telstra on 07/06/2017 - 21:39

        What do you mean? How were you trying to process? Online, over the phone or in store?

        • user220846 on 07/06/2017 - 22:04

          I tried online and I had a few chats with 7x24 agents. I have to quote Telstra Employee ID to satisfy that eligibility. Very strange. Can you send me the new T&Cs link for that offer. Much appreciated.

    • user220846 on 07/06/2017 - 22:10

      A link for this new updated T&Cs please

        Since you don't accept new Pm's as i have advised multiple users via Pm, new T&C's sent out in internal Comms that all staff with access to it are able to read. So i cannot post a link to it. But whatever 24/7 agent u speak to ask them to check their retaillive inbox for update of T&C's stating clearly employee ID is not required to "satisfy that eligibility".

        • user220846 on 07/06/2017 - 22:22

          Thanks for that. Pm.? What do you mean? Anyway I will follow your advice.

  • XeKToReX on 05/06/2017 - 20:03

  • Khuilong on 06/06/2017 - 08:59

    A question: Can I use my existing number (currently on prepaid with Telstra)? I would like to get sponsor by Telstra employee… please pm me if you're willing. Thanks in advance.

    • Associatedmechman323 @ Telstra on 06/06/2017 - 19:30

      Won't work if you are currently on Telstra prepaid. As a Prepaid-Postpaid is not counted as a new connection (weird i know). Also what do you mean by a "sponsor" by Telstra employee?

      • srhardy on 09/06/2017 - 10:21

        dont need a sponsor now it seems. you do need to port out and back in if your on prepaid

      • b3au on 10/06/2017 - 15:12

        Is a Telstra Business > this consumer offer a 'new connection'?

  • Strahany on 08/06/2017 - 15:46

    Anyone have any luck trying for discounts for this specific offer (rather than making them honour prior offers)? I've tried going in store and the chat but the flat response is that this deal is already too good.

  • AssociatedJW3B @ Telstra on 09/06/2017 - 21:37

    Just so everyone is aware that is applying for this offer, unless you are a permanent employee of Telstra you will not be eligible for the 25% Staff discount.
    The discount is applied to the employees personal account and it's use is audited. Also it can only be added by a special team within Telstra in which the employee must apply to for the discount. The discount is also removed once the employee leaves the company.

    • You cannot be "sponsored" for the Discount.
    • Any discounts ontop of this plan are not eligible.

    You can however take up this offer for the full $90 price if you are connecting a new service or porting in from another provider.

    • Telstra pre-paid or existing post-paid mobile services are not eligible.

    24x7 livechat teams cannot process the offer, you must apply via the link in this deal.

    Call centres can offer this deal. Call 1800 131 002 and mention this offer.

    Telstra stores are able to offer the plan, Visit your Local Telstra store and they will sort you out. **Some privately owned stores may not be participating in the offer(most will be though), all company owned stores are participating.

    Ends on the 13th, be Quick. The offer is only available while stocks last.

  • Amaris on 10/06/2017 - 01:41

    A friend who works at Telstra told me the offer has been extended to 30 June. No mention in the webpage however.

    I managed to recontract with new phone feeling for $149 online but I got $20 valued customer bonus carried over. Sales won't help but Saves team done a terrific job pushing the order with VCB.

    • Strahany on 13/06/2017 - 19:40

      How did you get that $20 bonus, initially, if you don't mind me asking?

      • x-analyzer on 14/06/2017 - 20:38

        I initially have 2 years ago when Telstra was giving it away easily if you sign up for Mobile Accelerate $95 plan. I just asked the disconnection nicely if I can keep it if I recontract for another 2 years. The bloke just asked his supervisor and without hesitation he finalized the online order with the discount included.

  • [Deactivated] on 14/06/2017 - 13:40

    can anyone confirm if this deal is still valid in store?

  • mformat on 14/06/2017 - 18:10

    I went in store yesterday and it was extended till 30th of june- new services only i believe

    • x-analyzer on 14/06/2017 - 20:41

      I tried in store prior the online order but store don't have access to do recontracting order. I used Chrome to do the online order. It will give option to keep your Telstra number.

      • user220846 on 14/06/2017 - 21:11

        You are right. Wonder will they cancel the early plan termination fee too？

        • x-analyzer on 15/06/2017 - 19:28

          I used the new phone feeling which costed me $149. You can try the disconnection team but you have to be less than 12 months remaining in contract to have bargaining power. They pretty helpful than sales.

  • Rail Rider95 on 15/06/2017 - 16:42

    I want to note that the link has been updated.

    This deal is now available until June 30th!!

  • Rail Rider95 on 24/06/2017 - 14:00

    Excellent deal :) just ordered the GS8 myself.
    Which is awesome, cos I'm already a Telstra postpaid customer and kept my number.
    Also didn't have to put in any name of a Telstra friend.

    PS, logged into my Telstra account before I clicked through to the deal.
