If you ended up getting $50 voucher for joining with ebay plus around this time last year, it'd mean it's time for you to cancel your subscription. I believe this has been posted before, but not in the last 6 months.

On ebay plus page:
1. Edit Membership > Cancel Membership > I still want to cancel > select a reason (i chose too expensive) > Next > you'll be prompted to keep your membership and receive a $30 digital ebay voucher.

Updated: 17/12

  1. After you've done the above, cancel eBay plus completely. You won't be able to reactivate or do anything. Just wait for the date to lapse and let your membership expire.

  2. Use: https://tc.ebay.com.au/ebayplus-50coupon-stp - i didn't receive this email - so it's not targeted.

  3. Click 'join now' and sign up as you normal do (i filmed the whole process just in case ebay didn't acknowledge I used the link) to my surprise, $50 was there instantly.

  4. $30 gift card goes to your ebay inbox. (I didn't receive a notification and it wasn't on the page: https://www.ebay.com.au/myb/Summary)

Wait upto 10 days? But i got mine within 2 days.

Enjoy. I have had a few good deals and returns with ebay plus, so I'll take them up on this offer! Anything less, I probably wouldn't have!

UPDATE:
I have received the $50 instantly and found the $30 gift card in my messages! Great for resubscribers

$80 in vouchers for $48.99!!

    Might want to stack with this offer. Worked for me, got both the $50 voucher and $30 gift card.

    NOTE : $50 voucher is a one-time use code and not stackable with other discounts if I recall correctly.

    • cheapass88 on 11/12/2020 - 22:45

      Nice one, how do I get it to stack? If I can, that'd be a no brainer!

        After accepting the offer for $30 gift card, sign up using the $50 voucher sign up link after your eBay Plus membership expires. You should receive the $50 voucher instantly upon signing up, and the $30 gift card comes about 3 days later. Did this about 2 months back, so not sure if it is still working.

          after accepting the $30 voucher, it just shows next renewal date. Do I need to cancel again?

            @cheapass88: Accept the $30 gift card offer, then go back to eBay Plus membership and this time cancel the membership. Then when the membership expires, sign up using the $50 voucher sign up link.

            • inubaran on 12/12/2020 - 08:12

              @epicraiders: Hello, if I accept to get the $30 gist card then I need to pay first the renewal fee right? So, if I got back and cancel will I get the refund for the renewal fee? Otherwise when I signup to get the $50 voucher I need to pay again the signup fee.

              Edit: nvm, I think I now get the idea. I try it next week when my sub is about to expire.

          I don't understand. if you keep your membership to get the $30 voucher how are you supposed to sign up to eBay plus to get the 50$ voucher. You are already signed up.?

          • Stone Cold on 11/12/2020 - 23:36

            @manity: I am interested to know. Mooney is gonna expire in 4 days

            • Pricebeat on 12/12/2020 - 00:44

              @CyberMurning: It says stay and pay for next year. So you will probably get $30 after you paid for next year.

              • inubaran on 12/12/2020 - 08:20

                @Pricebeat: It looks like this is a bug wherein the system thinks that you have paid to get both the $30 and $50 vouchers. I’ll try this next week when mine is about to expire.

    • ozyack on 12/12/2020 - 06:16

      Darn, I just turned back the $30 gift card and cancelled my membership. It's expiring on 22 Dec. Now I can't find a way to reinstate it, otherwise I would have kept it to combine these offers. Amazon Prime lets you reinstate or renew your membership before it expires, but eBay Plus apparently won't. It only show my eBay Plus expiry date and no way to undo it. How lame.

        • ozyack on 12/12/2020 - 12:48

          Hope so. Still should give me an option to undo it without needing to wait for an email though.

      • aussiekid on 15/12/2020 - 13:30

        Where did you get the $30 voucher, email? 5 days now and still no $30 voucher. Got the $50 though.

        Update: just got it in my Ebay messages. Not in email.

      • grasstown on 26/12/2020 - 10:24
        +1

        I got $50 but still didn’t get $30. It’s been about 9 days. I have a screenshot that I accepted the $30 offer. The only thing I can think of is that I didn’t cancel my membership. I just removed PayPal and auto renewal and signed up once membership expired. I’m not sure if that makes a difference, but I’ll email eBay about my screenshot in a week or so.

        • inubaran on 26/12/2020 - 12:58

          Would have been a good plan. Might still is. If all goes well after you contact them then what can happen is they give you the $30 voucher then you’ll get another $30 via the system. Good luck!

          • grasstown on 26/12/2020 - 13:02

            @inubaran: Cheers, that would be good. But I’ll be happy with one :)

    I received this message a month ago, and still cancelled. eBay plus isn't worth $20 to me, I use Amazon like every week or 2. I haven't used eBay plus in 10 months!

    • [Deactivated] on 12/12/2020 - 11:30

      That true, if you going to send 50+30 bucks on ebay anyways. It basically getting it for free plus extra 30 if already subs currently.

      It legit hard find any good deals, but free express shipping come in handy.

      I hardly even use both, what do you guys get from Amazon apart from daily household goods, small electronics is more expensive than eBay. Amazon prime does get in handy for US prime deal though.

    • 2024 on 12/12/2020 - 12:34

      I got the $50 voucher for renewing just as I was looking for a new golf driver, so it worked out I got ebay plus and saved $1 on the year.
      Same as you though, I wouldn't pay $20 on top after getting the $30 voucher. The incentive just isn't there like Amazon.
      I get value enough just from their streaming services, but then free post on most of my purchases meant I saved the annual fee in 3-4 purchases.

    • fantoo on 12/12/2020 - 22:38

      I had multiple trial accounts setup.
      Now cancelled on all of them except for one(main account).

      However, prime membership is worth every cent

    Be careful with this offer. While redeeming the voucher I got a website error. Money was taken off it, but the payment didn't go through. I spent weeks emailing their technical support and finally got it back, but it was a massive waste of time. Also, voucher needed to be spent in one transaction.

      You’ll get the $30 voucher after you pay to get the $50 voucher. :) (read the OP it’s very clear)
      Step 1. Fake cancel, accept $30 offer
      Step 2. True cancel, ignore $30 offer (you’re still recorded in the system in Step 1)
      Step 3. Wait to expire
      Step 4. After it expires signup using $50 voucher link and get $50 instantly (if you’re lucky)
      Step 5. Wait for $30 voucher within 10 days (if you’re lucky)

  • harisjd on 29/12/2020 - 16:45

    I accepted the $30 offer on Dec 12th and then cancelled my eBay sub the same day, after my sub laped on 18th I joined back again with that $50 voucher link on Dec 27th, instantly received the $50 voucher but $30 voucher was no where to be found.
    So today I contacted ebay staff via chat and explained the situation that I accepted the $30 retention voucher but never received it, the nice rep looked at my account verified details and then put the $30 voucher on my account.

    Hence if somebody has been waiting for more than 2 days I would suggest contact eBay via chat and hopefully your matter would be resolved in less than 10 mins as well. Enjoy :)

    • cloo on 04/01/2021 - 15:44

      Tried the same thing but the support person checked and said they can see that as I received the $50 voucher, I'm not eligible for the $30. Oh well!

      I renewed approx 5 days after cancelling so maybe I waited too long.

      OR more likely it's been OzBargained and they've caught onto this hack :)

          I just bought some groceries from Coles to use my $50 which unfortunately doesn't stack with 10% off. Of course I bought mostly from the half price specials category :)

          Had another crack on chat and this time got a $30 voucher (not gift card).

            @myfeetarehappy: Lucky you! You inspired me to do the same but I got the same response as last time ie that I could only get one offer and since I already got the $50, not eligible for the $30.
