if you have a "shared data" plan from Telstra, you can have your device cost waived, if you purchased it before July 24th 2018 , if you disconnect or recontract your device cost will be waived.
because of Telstra stopping shared plans (which are no longer available) disconnect cost will incur but may be waived if re contract but might be worth it if you have an expensive device.
