JB now has Google Pixel 3 or Huawei P30 for $199 upfront on the 12 month $65 plan.

Similar to the deal in May.
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/454635

Total Min cost for the plan is $780 and it includes 60 GB data, unlimited local calls and sms per month.

For total cost of $979 its a better deal than buying the phone outright and paying for a similar plan.

Its even better if you can upgrade the plan to BYO $69 plan with Telstra with $20 discount or $10 discount thru Telstra live chat.

(https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/sim-only-plans)

Available to port-in customers and new Telstra customers only. Excludes Telstra Pre-Paid, Boost and Belong customers.

    Nice, p30 is a solid phone, not as good as the past deal though.

      Nice phone if it gets android license back, otherwise your missing out on future updates and the price isn't justified.

    This deal in may worked great for me. Claimed 200$ voucher from Huawei(Expired now). And just tried my luck with claiming Sonos speaker and it was only for pre-orders. Anyways, My speaker was delivered and loving it. So worth a shot trying both sonos and gift card claim.

    • 18 on 20/06/2019 - 05:21

      Do you have the link for claiming the Sonos speakers? Says Error 404 for me.

      • Karansingh on 20/06/2019 - 05:58

        Yeah just chcked it, they have taken the page down. But still can try claiming 200$ voucher

    Slightly off topic, but on what grounds do people ask for the Telstra discount? Is it like a new customer discount or something?

    • Duece1995 on 20/06/2019 - 07:06

      I signed up to this deal (P30) during the mother's day promo with the additional $200 gift card. Just go on live chat after signing up and ask for a $10 porting discount. Amazing phone.

      • [Deactivated] on 20/06/2019 - 08:43

        Ah, "porting discount"..makes sense.

      • ozhunter68 on 20/06/2019 - 13:44

        Do you think they will give this $10 discount to anyone who asks?

        • [Deactivated] on 20/06/2019 - 18:57

          It's a bit of a hassle, but yes. I signed up yesterday, and tried two live chat agents – no dice. Today I tried again and my first agent did it right away.

          • ozhunter68 on 20/06/2019 - 19:29

            @[Deactivated]: Well done, persistence sometimes pays off.

            Exactly my reason for asking as I knew they often don't give a $10 discount for asking once

            depending on who you get, but ask again and again and you may get what you ask for.

    • Whisper Quiet on 20/06/2019 - 07:30

      Just ask for the $69 plan which is currently discounted to $49 after you get the plan from JBHifi. Most people have done it with no issues, including me.

      • thekensai on 20/06/2019 - 09:28

        how much penalty to pay if bailing out of the $49 plan? cheers

          $414 early termination fee for $69 12 month plan. It doesnt matter how much you pay, you still on $69 plan. I pay $49/month

      • Gordon84 on 20/06/2019 - 09:39

        Do you go on the telstra chat on the day to upgrade to the $69 ($49) plan after you bought the phone from jb hifi??

        • valra on 20/06/2019 - 09:50
          +1

          Yes. But your mileage may vary.. some have got the discount straight away but others had to try few more times to get the $20 discount for $69 plan. $10 discount is easy to get as it is advertised.

          • Inflow on 20/06/2019 - 18:02

            @valra: Do we have to tell JBHifi to put us on the $69 plan instead of the $65 plan so that we can try to get the $49 plan telstra discount? Because JBHifi plan is $65.
            edit: nvm the answer is on op's post.

        • Whisper Quiet on 22/06/2019 - 08:42

          I got the plan on a Friday and spoke to Telstra on the Sunday. So I would keep within a few days of of getting it. So it's still a "new plan". Leave it any longer and they might not treat as a choose your option.

  • Duece1995 on 20/06/2019 - 07:17
    +5

    If you break down the total cost over twelve months and what's included.
    To get an equivalent sim only plan for
    60gb = $45pm so essentially you pay $200 upfront cost for the phone & $10 per month for 12 months to bring the cost to $55pm after the $10 porting discount.

    Essentially total cost of the phone is $320.
    Bargain.

    • ilubbargains on 20/06/2019 - 08:56

      If you've already got a phone, sell this phone and your monthly cost is even lower.

      • sunny007 on 22/06/2019 - 20:06

        $300 GC with pixel or without?

      Advised in-store that the $500 GC offer is still on, as an alternative if you don't want the Pixel3 or P30.

      • clownbaby on 20/06/2019 - 15:39

      Yup agree. Mine's going straight on ebay once I get the phone.

      • yummypinacolada on 20/06/2019 - 17:00

        Fyi, I have tried selling my brand new sealed Pixel 3 on gumtree for $700 in Sydney, and I don't get a single offer(even low baller). It might be different for Ebay, but just don't get your hope too high when selling Pixel 3.

        The pixel 3 RRP is ridiculous, no one would pay that amount.

    • vaska124 on 20/06/2019 - 09:33

      Tried but denied although u will still get 10$ discount so making it to 59$ per month

      • Gordon84 on 20/06/2019 - 10:53

        was that the $10 activation or the $10 credit plus discount?

        • vaska124 on 20/06/2019 - 22:29

          Credit as u can upgrade to 69$ per month and you are able to get 10$ credit discount

    • ameno on 20/06/2019 - 11:34

      Not this promo, but the $45 sim only a few months back.

      Took me 5 attempts to speak to a rep that would finally apply a porting discount for me.

      Just gotta try, try and try again mate.

    • Currify on 20/06/2019 - 20:45

      Yep I managed to get it down. First rep I talked to didn't offer it but the second was happy to do it.
      Also got offered a $10 credit on top. Not sure if that's just for the first bill or for each month however.
      Seems to bit of a hit or miss with the reps.

    • Santosh010 on 21/06/2019 - 17:53

      I got just now. No issues. I was able to reduce to $49

    I know it states it excludes existing Telstra customers.

      Port out and port back in is simplest. Get a $2 starter pack from somewhere

      • NeverMissABargain on 20/06/2019 - 09:32

        I have tried to go through complete post and have following question to clarify: if I ported from Telstra to Optus and again trying to port back to Telstra, will I be eligible?

        • buckster on 20/06/2019 - 09:56

          Yeah people have previously said that's worked for them in the comments

        • ozprash on 20/06/2019 - 11:51

          As per JB Hi-Fi, you will need to wait 30 days after porting out from Telstra/Belong/Boost. But few have tried getting this plan on a new number (with a $2 Optus/Voda sim) and then moving this plan to the regular old number via Telstra chat.

    • zangvuong on 20/06/2019 - 09:26

      I would like to know as well. It looks like if you are on Telstra prepaid (like I am), you would need to port out to a non Telstra network for at least 30 days?

      • buckster on 20/06/2019 - 09:56

        Some have said they've only needed to Port out for a day

  • VeganJerky on 20/06/2019 - 09:23

    If I'm with another provider that uses the Telstra network, does it still count as an existing Telastra customer?

  • Gordon84 on 20/06/2019 - 09:40

    I'm still with Optus for 3 months, do telstra pay out the cancellation fee if i switch??

  • Gordon84 on 20/06/2019 - 09:57

    Well just spoke to Telstra about switching to the $49 deal and got this repsonse

    "That offer is for NEW customer only. If you will sign up to JB HI-FI, you are considered as existing customer already"

    Which is a better deal? Pixel 3 or p30?

    • emoticon on 20/06/2019 - 18:06

      Google Pixel 3 imo. The future of any Huawei device is in limbo atm with U.S sanctions against the company.

      Google may drop support for the phone after the sanctions go into full effect. So potentially no updates, Google play store, access to apps + google services, google maps/YouTube etc.

  • Chawngreg on 20/06/2019 - 10:12

    What happens to the phone if you terminate the plan early? Will you be paying for the cost of the phone? Thanks.

    • freefall101 on 20/06/2019 - 10:14

      No, but you'll be paying a whopping big cancellation fee. Not worth it.

    • mandelbrot on 20/06/2019 - 10:49

      Cancellation fee isn't that much. ETC for $65 JB plan is $390 and ETC for $45 JB plan is $270.

      • chew_chew on 20/06/2019 - 10:55

        Are you saying we could sign up, and cancel next day. And pay only $199 + $65 + $390 for the phone?

        • doot on 20/06/2019 - 11:18

          Most likely a little less, as the $65 should be pro-rata'd

          • chew_chew on 20/06/2019 - 12:15

            @doot: The full terms and conditions seems to suggest phone credit cancellation fee on top of ETC?

            "If you cancel, recontract or move to an ineligible plan then you will need to pay a Phone Credit Cancellation Fee pro-rated against the remaining months on your plan, the maximum of which is set out in the table above. This is in addition to any Early Termination Charges (ETCs) set out in the above table and accessory payments."

  • Chawngreg on 20/06/2019 - 10:15

    Thanks.

  • SNK on 20/06/2019 - 10:54

    An easy way to reduce cost to $49 will be to ask for OzBargain deal but gives 30 gb pm and pom if eligible.

    The deal is still running - effectively it is still a $500 gift card for the $65 for 12 month plan - I just used it on a discounted iPhone XR 256gb - down to $1299 with the $500 gift card made it $799. There is a list of about 10 things that they wil let you use the $500 on. The old deal finished yesterday and the new one came out at 5.30 last night. It only runs until Sunday

      Why do people spout this nonsense? Obviously the next Pixel is coming later this year, phones have been on a yearly cadence for a decade now.

      • vegemite2008 on 20/06/2019 - 18:21

        I would jump on the deal if it was a pixel 3 .

        I was saying that it will be more similar promos with pixel 3 (incl xl) because they want to clear the shelves of pixel 3(xl) before pixel 4 arrives…

      Last week I got the Pixel 3XL for $247.

      Used the $500 gift card, along with price match to HN for Pixel XL at $1097 and $350 trade in discount to bring down the cost to $247.

      Also downgraded the Telstra plan to $29 with 30GB of data ($39/30GB Companion plan with $10 port in discount) to make it even more value for money.

      • dekaiser on 20/06/2019 - 21:08

  • clownbaby on 20/06/2019 - 15:14

    I'm not getting much luck asking for the $10 porting deal. Two Telstra staff have said that because I got the JB deal then I cannot get the $10 porting deal.

    • valra on 20/06/2019 - 15:39

      You can ask Telstra to upgrade to $69 plan with $10 discount ( this is a advertised offer) And this includes Peace of Mind data and unlimited international talk & text to 15 selected countries (i.e. Bangladesh, Canada, China, Hong Kong, India, Lebanon, Malaysia, New Zealand, Pakistan, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, UK, USA and Vietnam). But some have got $20 discount for the same plan. See here

        Edit: also, did your contract period change after switching to the $69 plan

        • valra on 21/06/2019 - 10:42

          I signed up to the Jb HiFi $65 plan and then changed the plan to $69 plan thru Telstra Chat.

          Yes, contact period changes depending on when you switch plans. It is essentially a new contract with Telstra. If done on same day you sign up to JB HiFi plan, the period will remain the same.

          • ChaLuo on 21/06/2019 - 11:51

            @valra: i see… so you might have lengthened your contract period from 12 to 24 months

                @mandelbrot: Correct - if the CSO has upgraded your plan correctly, you'll receive an email almost instantaneously with an attached CIS that shows 12 months.

                You should also receive a separate 'Order Estimate' pdf via email, which shows:
                Go Mobile Plus Special Offer: -$10

    Last deal from JB was Amazing. Signed up for the deal yesterday. Got the $65 plan and chose free Ipad 128GB Wifi. Sold Ipad for $500 and switched to telstra $69 plan with 60 GB data and Unlimited intl call that is offered at $49 for new customers. So i have to pay 49*12= 588 but since sold free ipad at 500 so net cost is 88 and monthly cost is $7.33

    • No ONE on 20/06/2019 - 20:08

      Wow. You sold the iPad within 24 hours.

      • ozbargaindeals on 20/06/2019 - 20:21

        Yes since i already had one. I put 50 dollar discount from the retail price so it sold quickly
