      the $10 discount & 20GB bonus is more of a recent added bonus!

            @Lord G: I mean, you can’t order sim only plans online through JB so you MUST go in store anyway.
            So why are they advertising 60GB on the site and this post says go in store and you’ll get 80GB instead?

              @unco: You can sign up to a Telstra Sim Plan via JB Online but those are different from the In- Store promotions.

        @DriedMangoSchoolBus So I'm looking at that link and it says $55/month, 1 year contract (which includes $10 port in credit) but it only includes 60Gb per month, not 80Gb. Am I missing something? Cheers

          The deal is in store only and is advertised in store only. Just go to your local JB and talk to one of the Telstra people.

        • herpadurkastan on 03/06/2020 - 16:29

          Harvey Norman + Optus were doing $700, so I assume JB + Telstra are now matching it.

        The link on the JB Hifi site says $500 credit towards a new handset … can't see the $700, am I missing something?

        • ysbeer178 on 01/06/2020 - 19:37

            Normally $500 but its $700 till June 13th and advertised in store only.

      If you port out for 30 days you can port back in. Some stores may let you port in within the 30 days but varies.

    • sc00terMcTav on 02/06/2020 - 05:27

      My brother ported over to Optus, in the morningwith just a pre-paid sim pack thing.
      Once his sim became active went into JB and ported back to Telstra that afternooon, worked fine.
      That was about 9 months ago.
      Obviously may not work here, but I know it has in the past.

      • tnarg on 02/06/2020 - 07:54

        I just got a new SIM from Optus with a new number, signed up to the JB deal last time. Then jumped onto Telstra and had my old number take over the new contract - Vola

        • yerdem on 02/06/2020 - 11:58

          How's that even possible? So let's say I I'm currently Telstra month to month. I buy a new Optus Sim with new number and then port to Telstra how do I link my already Telstra number to them?

          • ChaLuo on 02/06/2020 - 12:23

            @yerdem: I'm interested to know more about this "take over" method.

          • tnarg on 03/06/2020 - 08:00

            @yerdem: https://www.telstra.com.au/support/account-payment/give-owne…

            Essentially you are just taking over the contract.

            They are happy to move a month to month plan onto a contract

            I did this twice as i signed up for both my wife and I on a $5 SIM on Optus with a new number. (There was a week gap)

              +1

              @tnarg: That link is for a change of ownership- meaning you're just sending a number to someone elses account, not a change of number to one you already have.

              The method for associating a number is not a Telstra policy, and honestly you got lucky that someone was willing to go through the effort of doing that, as Telstra absolutely did not like us doing that. It's a painful process of (profanity) around with Siebel, and the quarantine numbered process to make that happen.

              Source; ran a Telstra shop for 7 years.

              • tnarg on 03/06/2020 - 10:47

                @ONEMariachi: Wow i did get lucky then as it only took about 5 minutes for them to transfer my old number onto the new account. My previous contract has expired and was just on a month to month

                • shaughan12 on 04/06/2020 - 13:38

                  @tnarg: How did you go about it? I am a current Telstra customer so looking at just buying a new service with a new number then asking Telstra to transfer my old number to the new contract as you mentioned.

                  • tnarg on 04/06/2020 - 18:10

                    @shaughan12: I just jumped on the chat line and they did it for me. Was really quite easy. But Onemarachi's comment above might have meant I got lucky. However I have done this twice with 2 different people. I thought the worst outcome would be I have a new mobile number

                    • shaughan12 on 05/06/2020 - 09:00

                      @tnarg: I Think it depends on who you get. Took 8 hours for them to respond and advised it couldnt be don then tried again overnight and spoke to a guy who said it would be easy to do.

  • PhatJz on 01/06/2020 - 19:10

    So port your number to another provider for the lowest fee

      • ozhunter68 on 01/06/2020 - 20:09

        Whichever provider that has a 28/30/month prepaid plan that suits your needs.

        Both sim plans above are great value, pick between Kogan/Vodafone or Catch Connect/Optus, if needing Telstra reception pick a discounted Boost/Telstra/Aldi starter sim pack.

  • Tuttle on 01/06/2020 - 19:14

    Would the $400 be re-sellable on eBay etc? Got nothing I want from JB, but if it effectively can subsidise my plan (say selling the credit for $350), I’d do it in a heartbeat.

        • poporange630 on 01/06/2020 - 21:49

      But they will usually let you recontact 60 days from end date so think about it more like a 10month plan if you choose to stay on.

          +1

          Yes, but you ain't getting Apple Watch on Kogan…hence the statement. MVNOs need not apply.

          Even Boost which uses the full Telstra network, as opposed to a subset like Aldi, doesn't support it. JB is somewhat unique in being a full-featured Telstra reseller.

          Also I regularly get 400+Mbps on Telstra 4G at my house. Vodafone don't come close but, to be fair, at least they beat Optus.

    • Donaldhump on 01/06/2020 - 19:59

        not

          Aldi doesn’t have access to the full network. Only boost has that. And even then boost don’t get the highest 4GX and 5G etc etc

          • Donaldhump on 01/06/2020 - 22:22

            @WhyAmICommenting: actually this deal is better, after the gift card its the same price but more data.
            plus the phone cost is a tax deduction.

    • auna on 01/06/2020 - 22:34

      Apple Watch support, 5G support, Visual Voicemail support, VOLTE support, HD VOICE support and Telstra points access plus Telstra perks. The days of getting a reseller SIM card is over as they always have a catch.

    • Keplaffintech on 02/06/2020 - 12:58

      Which Kogan plan are you talking about?

      After subtracting the gift card the Telstra plan comes down to $21.67 per month for 80GB a month.

      Nothing at Kogan comes close.

      • Donaldhump on 02/06/2020 - 16:35

    Anyone have the link to the $10 Port in Credit? Still have a few months with Optus but might be worth it to just cop the $40 ETC.

    • hmac on 01/06/2020 - 19:29
