Hi Ozbargain World!
I had a quick scroll through the forums to see if there was any discussion around the best plan deals people are getting for the latest release of the S9/S9+ and couldn't see anything so thought I'd start one.
The following are direct links to different suppliers. I am only looking at plans where you own the phone outright at the end of a plan. If you are getting a better deal with any of the following plans or can add to the list please let us know in the comments. I haven't included Vodafone, Woolworths Mobile etc. but if you are getting a better deal than the standard that is on offer, let us know :)
S9 64GB
- All Telstra plans at the moment come with a Bonus Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 valued at $456, PLUS a Wireless Charger Convertible (RRP $119)
- Virgin Mobile - Optus Network - Pre-order by the 15 March and receive a bonus Wireless Charger. Sign up before the 26 March and receive 10% off your monthly plan access fee. I'm not sure if the prices shown are inclusive of the 10% discount already or they can be applied to the current price. There doesn't seem to be any 256GB option?
