Pretty good deal, can be stacked with 5% JB HiFi gift cards to pay the outright amount.
Also can use the $39 for 20GB plan, instead of the $69 for 30GB that is advertised.
Confirmed with JB-HiFi The Galleries Sydney.

$100 more for phone, but $10/5GB less each month…..
upfront
Ahh okay, think ill wait for the new iDevice in September'ish
Yeah the phone is paid off upfront.
You can break from the 12M contract by paying $294. I think the amount pro-rata-ed down each month.
How exactly does this work?
I still have 4 months left on my current post paid contract with virgin mobile.
I can't just change to telstra, surely i would have to pay for the remaining 4 months of my vm contract, don't i?what did virgin say when you asked them?
It's simply another contract.
12 months @ $39/month + upfront fee.Compared to your most likely 24 month contract you are on @ $XX/month.
I'm sure Virgin Mobile would let you get out of your contract for free to move to another provider.
All contracts have an early termination fee. You would need to ask virgin (or look at your contract) to see how much it is. It will be $x multipled by months remaining of contract.
Give them a call. Apparently, all phone have a "credit" which pays off remaining planfees. I had 5 month left on iphone 6s (45 plan + 15 handset/month), I just had to pay my last bill outstanding and any new charges pro-rata, the rest got debitted from the "credit". I did switch to optus though because I just wanted a sim only plan ($30 for 15gb, they have many options for customers switching over)
Seems to be a good deal! The Ozbargainer in me tells me to try the below:
Get the $39 plan and the $200 gift card and buy the S9 on sale (cheapest for Au stock was $900), kinda makes the phone $700 than paying $800 here?
JB hifi vouchers dont have expiry date, and it would make sense to treat them as cash for any instore/online purchase later.
Where is it for $900?
Not a deal! This bundle, S9 cost at $105.58 20gb data per month for 12mths contract. Telstra's own offer is $89 10gb data per month for 24mths contract, Optus is $79 25GB 24mths contract.
I don't see how they're anyway comparable.
If you were going to keep the phone and plan for 24 months, then overall this deal is more expensive.
Edit - I see the error in the comparison - my bad!
If u keep it for 24 months, then it's equal to $72 pm.
It's cheaper.
$799+$39*24=1735
1735/24=72.30
this is 72pm assuming you can continue on 39/pm plan between months 13-24.
Confirmed by JB sales rep today that it will continue for months 13 to 24 for 39pm
I would probably look for better deal.
Hoping for s10…
if you can get the 200 gift card with this deal then its a WINNER !
Nah its either 400 off S9/S9+ or the gift card. Tried to even push the price down as HN have it at 1149 but they said nope
JB hifi Fountain gate gave me $1070 for S9, try that if you are in melbourne..
Where do you get the 5% gift card from please? Did I miss something?
Thanks!
Work programs if you have it
You can grab it off private sellers on ozbargain (higher rate as well)
Or you can buy e-gift from cashrewards/entertainment book/private sellers for 5%-7%, then pay for jbhifi gift cards in woolies with your egift
I womder if they could offer the a similar deal with the p20 pro. Like 400$ off which they had a few weeks back
They had this deal plus a $200 gift card on the $49 plan last month.
They had $400 off, plus $200 gift card? Or did they have one option or the other?
Doesn't seem plausible, but standing by on this confirmation
It was on the old $49/mth($10 off $59/plan), but no get $400 off the s9 or s9+ as well as the $200 giftcard.
Nice deal, very tempting.
Can I port in from Aldi mobile to get this deal?
Why not?
Aldi uses Telstra network but you are not on Telstra plan so would say yes.
Thanks
the s9/s9+ had a lot of drop-out issues earlier this year. can someone verify this has been fixed?
Just a heads up regarding the port in offer: Telstra resellers (such as Boost) are not eligible, you will have to port out to another provider first.
Went into JB this afternoon to enquire about the $39 port in + $200 gift card offer in the other thread and they confirmed this, and they also said the $39 + gift card deal ends Thursday.That's not true, I've just ported in from aldi.
Boost is 100% owned by Telstra. Not a reseller.

Wow…very tempting now…
Only read this today. So i missed out on your hack!
Bugger I bought the S9+ on Saturday with the $200 JB hifi gift card deal posted a few days ago. Do you think they will refund me the difference if I go back to the store and ask?
I've sent them to email to see if I can get a $200 refund. Fingers crossed I will
Did you also sign up to a Telstra plan when you bought your S9+?
Yes the $39/20GB plan
Is anyone interested in 'splitting' this deal whereby one person is only interested in getting the phone will fork out the $799 for the phone and the other person gets the $39 plan? I'm only interested in the phone, already have a plan with Telstra
Why would anyone does, they can do it themselves and get $200……
Just got two of the $39 plans. My partner got the S9+. Used my $200 credit (I already have an iPhone X) and purchased $750 discounted Woolworths cards which I then used to purchase the ultimate teens gift cards with.
And after procrastinating ….. I missed out on getting those cards on the last catalogue.
Can anyone confirm they got a $39/PM plan as well as the $400 off the handset? JB are only giving me one or the other…
Yes. Partner got the S9+ for $949, then used my $200 JB gift card and then $750 Ultimate teens cards.
where is this deal advertised? my local JB is only offering a 200 gift card to port over to this plan. if there is something official advertised i could show them but the link to the deal just goes to their website?
Expired.
Called up to confirming can get the S9+ tomorrow, this $400 off havdset piece expired yesterday.
Looks like I'll take a few $200 gift card instead.I was at jb chermside and noticed the flyer said that it spied on the 23rd of this month. Fortunately the sales guy I spoke to told me he can still do the deal for me.
So my wife signed onto the $39/mthsim only deal and got the $200 giftcard, I then I got the S9+ with the $400 off plus used the $200 giftcard and saved myself $600. Once I lodged TRS for my flight next month the phone would have only cost me $674.10…
Is the phone paid off over 12 months, or $799/$949 upfront plus $39/month?
