Posting this deal as the Xbox Series X is back in stock on the Microsoft website (deal post) and these gift cards can be used to purchase it. You can buy a maximum of $500 which would mean a saving of $45 off the RRP of an Xbox Series X if you use it for that purchase
Edit: 12/05 4.27pm - Xbox Series X now out of stock at Microsoft.
Edit: 12/05 7:18pm - Seems to be going in and out of stock, if its out of stock refresh every 10 minutes or so
yes
Where is the cheapest place to get a game pass these days?
Pretty sure Eneba with the EA Play conversion. Haven't checked for a week or so though.
Xbox seems to be out of stock again, good to stock up before the next time it's live. I believe you can load these into your Microsoft account and apply it to the console when purchasing.
So the choice is $50 off your new Xbox for those with access to the discounted gift cards via Suncorp, or $80 off for those who saved the Microsoft AU offer to their AMEX.
Too late.
You could do both couldn't you? $400 on amex ($80 cashback), $350 on gift cards (costs $318.5, saving $31.5). Total saving $111.5 after cashback unless I missed something (only skimmed the amex deal, saw purchase eligibility is $400)
Possibly. Not sure if use of gift cards was permitted for the statement credits? Moot point now though I guess.
Amex will just go on the spend, not tracked like cashback sites. Still valid strategy, wait until Xbox is back in stock (or can use to buy something else I guess)
@CamM: Stack again with 1.5% cashrewards (which will go off the total purchase price) for another $11.25, so potentially $123 savings
@Preferred Username: @preferred username.. did you do this? Double stacking with giftcards and amex? I thought about it but I didn't want to wait around and have it sold out. I usually double stack these but didn't this time round
@PreSsieGuY: I havent, but can't see any reason why it wouldn't work (it's just 2 payment methods, and amex is based on spend at the merchant using the card). A few other have mentioned to buy the gift cards and just load them onto the account, then when in-stock just finish the payment.
Slightly off topic but can you get discounts for the PlayStation store?
Or are there sales for credit?
Don't think PlayStation is on there. But what I usually do is buy JB gift cards at 5% discount and then use those to buy PS Store credit.
Oh awesome. Thanks.
Wasn’t sure if they allowed gift cards for gift cards haha
The moral of the story is, don't take time oomm aaah analysing XBox One series X deals. Snap it before it is OOS. Buy first, think/ask later ;-)
Back in stock if you want it now ;)
Not my luck. OOS each time I get to check out.
Good to top up balance.
Be sure to keep refreshing the purchase page for the next few hours if you missed out, as they're continuously restocking:

Awesome, let me get uhhhhh…. a PS5
Dumb question:
Do I need to be a customer of Suncorp to get this benefit? (I'm assuming so)
yes, or know someone who has access to the benefit to help purchase it for you.
Thanks.
I get 5% through my work, so that's probably as good as I'll get.
Or AAMI. I use it through aami.
Maybe it works with the AAMI insurance if you choose it for your CTP?
I was able to add my AAMI greenslip policy to the Suncorp app so it should work.
I've got an Xbox eGift card in my shopping cart (Suncorp app) but it's asking for a coupon code at checkout. I can't pay without. Anyone knows what this means?
You don't need to add anything to that field … leave it blank
The "Pay now" button is disabled (grey).
Mine is not greyed out, it is yellow. Are you sure you have added/linked a card? I have selected payment option, left CVV empty, no promo code and Pay Now is in yellow. Note maximum gift cards per month is $500.
@Lucille Bluth: Fixed. The linked card was expired. No message or error, only a disabled "Pay now" button.
[edit: Thanks!]
Xbox X back in stock now.
I got an Xbox X about 30 minutes ago but it's now "out of stock" again. It's changing during the day. Keep on refreshing ;-)
After painstakingly converting $600 jbhifi gift cards $100 at a time to xbox codes, found this deal to top of the rest needed and was able order an Xbox through Microsoft. Though I see it is out of stock again now!
They must release a small amount of XSX consoles at a time because it's been going in and out of stock for last few days now
Just got my shipped notification. If anyone’s gonna have stock, it’ll be them.
Can these be used for ultimate game passes as well?
