$1200 handset. Bam effectively the same cost but you own the phone.
Literally 30 seconds work to beat your deal.
Lease yuck
Pay 2400 for lease a phone. Good.
Own the phone, yes. Lease the phone, no.
Says min cost for 24 months. So 99 only for the first 12 months. Not a 12 month plan.

Get the $49 20 gig deal from Xmas and that's basically the same deal but you own it.
I just today signed up SIM only with Telstra $39 and 15GB.
Can you tell more about the plan? I can only find $49 plan at cheapest with Telstra. Thanks!
Dear OP,
I seriously hope you didn't take up this offer yourself.

What happens if you don't return a phone at the end of a lease agreement?
A man dressed as your lamp sneaks in at 3am and never leaves.
Police will come to your door with a search warrant.

Too expensive for an android phone. No thanks
Is that a picture of the phone? It's huge. Won't fit in my pocket!
Yeh, what a ripped off deal, not even your phone to own after 12months.
$2376 total cost and I dont even get to keep the phone???
Minimum total is $2376
No deal there.
Buy outright for ~ $1400
Then jump on Optus $30 / 15GB plan
Works out ~$300 less AND you keep the phone.Lol shiet… OP getting ripped to shreds.
Judging by your Mrs reflection in the photo, she wasn't impressed by the deal either ;)
This is seriously a pretty dumb thing to do. Even if you can't come up with the cost of the phone outright, there's better ways to structure it as others have posted. Bloody Telstra ripoff!
To be fair, I think we are all misinterpreting Telstra's lease agreements, although I could be wrong, I believe it is the following, allowing an option to keep the phone instead of being on a 'lease';
New phone this year. Upgrade next year.
Our new 24 month Go Mobile Swap lease plans give you the flexibility to upgrade your phone after just 12 months provided your phone is in good working order, you pay a $99 upgrade fee and you sign up to a new 24 month eligible handset and service plan.Other benefits.
You could pay up to $10 less per month on some handsets and plan combinations compared to our Go Mobile Plus plans and not taking ownership of the phone. Select Go Mobile Swap Lease plans below.
