Guys, I was at Harvey Norman Adelaide City Center Store comparing iPhone prices
and the salesperson told about $200 gift card if I switch to Optus since I had an awesome prepaid annual deal with Kogan, I let him amuse me
But pulled it off he gave me 20 Gb data with iPhone 8 space gray and $200 gift card.
I noticed since then Optus have started doing the deal on their website but its missing $200 gift card.
I found cis on Optus website her check it out https://cdn.optusdigital.com/opfiles/Shop/All/cis/Cis%20Docu…

      @Munki: ditto. No one calls nowadays so visual voicemail is pointless. Don’t even know how to enable it on my iPhone
  - [Deactivated] on 10/12/2017 - 10:38
    
    I don't think any of our telcos have visual voicemail for Android anyway.

  Sell the phone and get your U11.

Good deal but the phone is a drag. iPhone X is where it’s at
- jasswolf on 10/12/2017 - 10:51
  
  Right until the next android phones release in 2 months time and show up with all of the same features and then some. The iPhone X battery time blows for an AMOLED phone too.

- nix1016 on 10/12/2017 - 11:37
  
  Yep, I’m just signing up right now at the Nunawading HN and apparently so many people signed up that they ran out of phones, gift cards and SIM cards (they had to get more from the optus store). I have to come back on Monday to pick up the gift card and wait 2-3 days for optus to send me the phone. The sales rep was confused as to why so many people are signing up today!
  - pok on 10/12/2017 - 12:39
    
    Did they give u a case and screen protector in nunawading as well?
    - nix1016 on 10/12/2017 - 14:02

      They said they will need to ask the boss when I pick up the phone.

Optus reception has gotten slowly worse indoors over 3 years and we live on a big hill in Pimpama (5 min N of Dreamworld/ fastest growing region in Oz./ Former Long time satisfied Vaya customer). Changed to Aldi mobile/Telstra FAR better reception. Optus what are u spending our money on guys? Cmon Really??

So It will be 59 * 24 = 1416 - 200 - 1079 = 137/24 ~ $6 per month.
- silverrat23 on 10/12/2017 - 10:35
  
  I'm guessing the $1079 is the price of the phone alone, right?

    Yup

      Not sure, phone was for my wife and she chose a wallet case.
      
      We still haven’t picked it up. She is porting from an MVNO and they’re not open Sundays so Optus weren’t able to finalise port request.
      
      Mrs has to come back tomorrow to finalise contract+port. Was advised that she’ll be eligible for $200 card as deal finishes tomorrow.

Anyone can tell me where do they have stock?
- jrjr on 10/12/2017 - 11:07
  
  What happened when they had no stock, did they let you sign up and order it in or did they just refuse?

  They will still sign you up and call you when stock arrives. You will be issued with the gift card and sim card on the spot.
  - Frozensage on 10/12/2017 - 11:30
    
    I was told u get the gc when u get the phone? Just so if they couldn't get the phone and so contract is void then they haven't just gave you $200 free? Anyone confirm?
    - nix1016 on 10/12/2017 - 11:44
      
      They ran out of the gift card at the Nunawading store but said that I can come and pick it up next week. Nothing about getting it with the phone as the phone is sent from optus and the gift card is from HN.
    - jrjr on 10/12/2017 - 14:01
      
      Just signed up and didn't get a phone yet because they had no stock but I got the $200 card
    - Frozensage on 12/12/2017 - 12:22
      
      @nix1016: Same store and I was told the gc was also issued by optus not by HN. So i need to pick it up when I get the phone which will also be sent to the store. At the end of the day, I don't care who and which is what, I just want 2 phones and 2x 200 gc.
    - nix1016 on 12/12/2017 - 12:53
      
      @Frozensage: Yeah, they probably get credited the $200 from Optus as referral commission but the actual card is a HN issued EFTPOS card. I got a call a bit later on the day after I signed up telling me the giftcard is available again and I went back into the store to pick it up. Still haven't gotten my phone yet but I was told it was usually about a 3 day wait, but may get delayed up to 5 days. Hopefully I can get it this week. I'm sure they'll give you the giftcard when you go pick it up anyway as long as they already issued it on the 10th. They probably just said that you can pick it up with the phone because they ran out on the day.

  HN highpoint.
  Only silver and gold available though.
Winniethep1 on 10/12/2017 - 11:02

can you still get the gift card if moving from a BYO plan?

  for sure.

  - Winniethep1 on 10/12/2017 - 12:28
    
    Just chatted with optus online and they said they can change over from BYO sim plans to this one with no cancellation charges. Only no gift card
    - Munki on 10/12/2017 - 16:32
      
      That's what I was specifically responding about, cause you were asking about the gift card…
oranje on 10/12/2017 - 11:24

Probably a nope but worth asking - could this be combined with the Amex offer? I. E. Pay $400 towards my optus bill at HN and receive $100 cash back?
- virhlpool on 10/12/2017 - 13:20
  
  How can you? You are paying only $59 at HN.
- ihavecentsnotsense on 10/12/2017 - 14:05
  
  You are paying Optus when you pay your bill. You are not paying HN. They don’t process bill payments. You can’t get the amex offer.
askme69 on 10/12/2017 - 11:26

I have compared all those phones on GSM arena and none of these appear to be any better in camera or screen comparison to the LG G4. Maybe a touch faster.

Maybe the virgin deal with $100 less but greater flexibility in phones would suit others.

  Out of curiosity, what exactly is it that you are comparing for camera or screen? If the camera and screen on a flagship phone from this year can't beat a flagship phone from 2 years ago, then no one would be buying the latest phones!

  I have lost trust on LG phones after the infamous boot-looping issue that I faced on my much beloved LG G4 then. I had to send that phone back to Kogan which, fortunately, gave me all refund after verifying the issue. That was a heart-breaking experience and hassle when I was just 7-8 months into the phone usage. Probably never ever LG again. It was a great phone otherwise.
  - alwaysupforabargain on 10/12/2017 - 12:57
    
    I haven't experienced that first hand since I owned a LG G2 which didn't suffer from boot loops but I believe the boot looping days are behind them now. I personally think the LG V30 is definitely worth a consideration in the current market.
Frozensage on 10/12/2017 - 11:29

So apparently no stock anywhere. All raincheck and even though optus have promised stock, still no guarantee ? Reps words.

Amazingly great deal for TODAY, but seeing how plans and particularly data are getting cheaper, this deal might not hold as great for 24 months from now. Too long a commitment in this every changing world of telco offerings.

Just stepped out from a HN store in regional NSW. They told me that they cannot combine this plan with 200$ gift card. It seems it is not available in regional areas.
- Associated[Deactivated] @ Optus Accessories on 10/12/2017 - 12:13
  
  Maybe they are getting confused with the regional offer, HN regional stores get a $200 credit to bill. This doesnt apply to the $59 plan.
  
  The $200 gift card defs applies, ask for a manager :)
  - virhlpool on 10/12/2017 - 12:19
    
    What's "regional" offer? Never heard of it!

This was posted 7 years 2 days ago, and might be an out-dated deal.
