This is the best price I have found on a preorder Samsung 5G Note10+ 512gb plus Free AKG Wireless Headphones.

For $1699 on Telstra's new No Lock in Contract.

"Our new month-to-month, no lock-in mobile plans give you the flexibility to change your plan size once a month, to suit your data needs. You can also cancel your plan anytime. If you leave, simply pay out your device."

So you can sign up on their cheapest mobile plan, and cancel as soon as you received the phone and pay the phone's balance out.

    You still need to pay the first month's worth of plans if you cancel immediately. So it is $1699 + lowest plan rate

      The plans are pro-rata based. If you cancel on the same day you receive the phone it will only be a fraction of the monthly cost.

        Well then that's good to know! :)

      Telstra = $1699
      JBHIFI = $1999 - $100 = $1899

      Without the little extra effort how is that a better deal?

      • C0mbat on 10/08/2019 - 09:00

        Seems like $200 is worth the effort

      You won’t. You will get a final bill from Telstra with a device fee. You can’t use this bill for your TRS claim.

      • hluu0111 on 10/08/2019 - 10:56

        I wonder if the phone is network-locked and or branded?

      • [Deactivated] on 10/08/2019 - 13:34

        Should receive a receipt upon purchase. Telstra typically processes it as if you've purchased the phone and taken out a loan for the value, you're then simply paying back the loan.

        Noticed this when GST wasn't adding up on bill - the GST for the phone portion was shown on an invoice provided when the plan was first started, with no GST paid on repayments.

  • karlgr90 on 10/08/2019 - 09:22

    If you cancel, you will pay the FULL RRP, not the discounted RRP.

    • OzSikh on 10/08/2019 - 09:23

      Where does it say that?

    • AssociatedTomGum @ Telstra on 10/08/2019 - 09:26

      I wish people read before they speak/type.

      Copy paste from Telstra.

      Min cost $1,699 over 24 months plus your chosen plan costs.

      This means you pay $1,699 for the device. Regardless.

      • Wizard on 10/08/2019 - 09:29

        Device Payment Contract: You must have an eligible Telstra Mobile Plan in order to have a Device Payment Contract. If you cancel your Device Payment Contract early, cancel your mobile plan during the device payment term or move to an ineligible mobile plan during the payment term, you’ll need to pay out your device, in full.

        Device discounts do not apply to cancelled Device Payment Contracts.

        • AssociatedTomGum @ Telstra on 10/08/2019 - 09:31

            • AssociatedTomGum @ Telstra on 10/08/2019 - 09:42

              @Wizard: Where does this stipulate on the Telstra website. And please don’t use other website’s RRP.

            @TomGum: Telstra website clearly states.

            When you add it to any month-to-month plan and "stay connected for 24 months."

            So this means you can't cancel before 2 years.

                @TomGum: It doesn't say explicitly that the device cost will be $1,999. It does in multiple places say you have to be connected for 24 months to get the 5G device at the 4G device price. I suspect the reduction is achieved through an account credit and therefore will not apply when the plan is cancelled.

                Similar wording is shown for the S10 5G $360 discount (https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/mobiles-on-a-plan/s…)

    So this deal is pretty popular even though it's full RRP with a $100 eftpos card. This deal is $300 off RRP and doesn't get anywhere near the same amount of up votes even though it's a better deal? Go OzBargain.

  • Duc88 on 10/08/2019 - 10:43

    I just visited JBHIFI.

    They have another promo, get a $500 discount off full price PAID Outright ($1999) when you sign up to JBHIFI exclusive telstra plan @ $65 per month (80gb data) over 24m. You also get $100 gift card. So phone becomes $1399.

    I had the intention of getting on a Telstra plan anyway so now I need to decide which is better. Clearly JBHifi has the better deal in this instance but I truly dislike the Locked in Contract.

    • Poppin on 10/08/2019 - 11:00

      Correct me if I'm wrong, the JB plan is different to the Telstra plan which means you don't get the free/paid access to the 5G network.

      I got the JB $500 iPhone offer a few months back, if you cancel early there is no charge for the plan cancellation, you'll have to pay back the $500 on a pro-rata basis. I think you'll be slightly better off on the JB deal if you don't need/want 5G connectivity or any of the other slight differences in plan inclusions.

      • Duc88 on 10/08/2019 - 11:10

        JB plan is different from telstra plan but I didn't ask specifically if it included the 5G add-on.

        • Poppin on 10/08/2019 - 11:14

          I should also say that it's only beneficial if you were intending to go on the $80-100 Telstra plans since the $5 difference will chew up the $100 gift card bonus.

      • Duc88 on 10/08/2019 - 11:19

        Wtf you had to pay the 500 discount back if you cancel your plan early?

        • Poppin on 10/08/2019 - 11:36

          Oh no, only if you paid the difference up front. If it's on a payment plan then you also have to pay the remaining balance on that.

    • pegaxs on 10/08/2019 - 11:05

      $1999 - $500 - $100 + ($65 x 24) = $1,399…. am I missing something??

      • Duc88 on 10/08/2019 - 11:15

        Its $1999-$500-$100 = $1399 + ($65*24m).

        You need a plan regardless. So just factor in cost of service provider.

        I was on Kogan's 365 day prepaid 40gb for $315.
        So this is double data for bit over double plan cost. Whether or not you justify extra cost for better coverage, speed, service is up to you

        • pegaxs on 10/08/2019 - 15:30

          So, I can use the gift card to pay for a portion of the phone?

  • wombat81 on 10/08/2019 - 10:51

    So if i cancel the plan and have to pay out the device, can i still pay out monthly, or do i have to pay the lump sum immediately?

      Lump sum, refer as follows:

      Device Payment Contract: You must have an eligible Telstra Mobile Plan in order to have a Device Payment Contract. If you cancel your Device Payment Contract early, cancel your mobile plan during the device payment term or move to an ineligible mobile plan during the payment term, you’ll need to pay out your device, in full.

  • zeffman on 10/08/2019 - 11:58

    I believe it says that the discount only applies if you stay for the whole 24 months.
    “Order the Galaxy Note10+ 5G
    for the price of the 4G version.
    When you add it to any month-to-month plan and **stay connected for 24 months. **

      This issue has been covered. Read back through the thread.

  • Scarecrow2012 on 10/08/2019 - 15:30

    I would be careful even though this deal seems great, it's probably a misprint and the price is for the 256gb model. If you go for this deal get and keep screen shots of the offer. No doubt they will try and charge you 1999

    • Ryxxi on 11/08/2019 - 13:13

      There is no 256gb model for the 5g version……..

  • DDTW on 11/08/2019 - 14:55

    Samsung store in Melb Central has a bonus $200 trade in offer which isn't advertised.

    I've decided to trade in my Note9 512GB for $410 + $200 = $610 for a Note10+ 5G, and pay a difference of $1389.

    I definitely don't need 5G yet but it's the only model that can justify a tangible upgrade over my current N9.

    Also, 5G models don't come with the dual SIM (Hybrid SIM).

  • Bobby Hill on 12/08/2019 - 00:56

    Confirmed with chat - You have to stay on for 24 months in order to get the discounted phone @$1699. If you cancel, you have to pay the full price @$1999.

    • OrenjiO on 12/08/2019 - 16:47

      Guys, don't you see there is a promotion going on, where 4G price for 5G?

      • Bobby Hill on 12/08/2019 - 19:55

        This is what we are talking about. However you only get this deal if you stay on the month-to-month contract for 24 months. It appears the discount is applied as a monthly credit to your account. Once you cancel the contract, you lose the credit.

        It would be great if anyone can confirm otherwise.

        • AssociatedTomGum @ Telstra on 13/08/2019 - 10:04

          I’ve done a test sign up. There is no where it mentions the above statement. It would be hard for them to prove that I agreed for a $1999 device fee.

          • Bobby Hill on 13/08/2019 - 17:29

            @TomGum: By ordering you confirm that you have read and agreed to the T&C which state:

            Device Payment Contract: You must have an eligible Telstra Mobile Plan in order to have a Device Payment Contract. If you cancel your Device Payment Contract early, cancel your mobile plan during the device payment term or move to an ineligible mobile plan during the payment term, you’ll need to pay out your device, in full. Device discounts do not apply to cancelled Device Payment Contracts.

            Furthermore, they have now stated the differential - $288

            My order confirmation only states the net cost per month, not a breakdown which would show the monthly credit.

            Either way, I am not too fussed.

    • DDTW on 12/08/2019 - 20:31

      Thought so. Telstra's 5G plans are quite pricey at the moment.

    • CDG on 13/08/2019 - 14:12

      that's not what my chat was…

      He told me if i cancel after the first month, i only need to pay the headset fees, which is $1699 + 1 months fees

      • Bobby Hill on 13/08/2019 - 17:14

        They have even amended the wording on the page:

        Save $288 on Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G when you stay connected to any month-to-month plan for 24 or 36 months.

        Discount applies as a credit over the device payment period. If you cancel your plan, the discount will not apply to any remaining amount outstanding.

        Offer ends 23/09/2023

        5G now rolling out in selected areas.

        To be honest, prima facie it was clear that the discount would only apply if you stay connected to the month-to-month plan for >24 months; the T&C clearly states this.

        However, it is a question as to whether the internal controls reflect this caveat. It may be likely that the RPP is processed as $1699, however, my order confirmation only states the final cost to the customer with a minimum total cost, and not an itemised breakdown.

  • hluu0111 on 15/08/2019 - 20:03

    Confirmed with the trip to Telstra Highpoint Shop: The total amount of $1699 payable for the phone is correct if we don't cancel the service early. The earlier we pull out, the closer to $1999 we have to pay. This is different to what the online consultant(s) told me, that $1699 and the 1st month of the service fee would be the amount I would need to pay for to get the phone and pull out within the first month.

    • jonoz on 18/08/2019 - 19:19

      The terms and conditions of signing up via online chat that I have agreed to is, "The total minimum cost of your device is $1699."

      No caveats there about remaining connected.

  • Ven0m on 18/08/2019 - 19:50

    Sell the headphones for say $350 to someone on gumtree, plus $140 cash back from shopback and you've got this for close to $1,200.

    Then should the Samsung S11/S11+ be a better phone I can sell this for around the $1,300 mark I reckon and buy the new Samsung outright and hopefully take advantage of another great pre order offer.

  • aboutconfig on 20/08/2019 - 18:51

    If you cancel the plan as soon as you receive the Note 10+ 5G 512GB,

    what price are you paying for the phone payout? $1699 or $1999?

    Samsung has the RRP at $1999
