Unsure if targetted but i have never verified my email and mobile number for telstra and got this offer in the telstra app.
YMMV
Steps:
Also 5000 points to eligible accounta after adding a direct debt as per comments
You have to see the offer.
Dont verify if no offer visible as per thumbnail as you could get the offer later.
I didnt have the offer 2 days ago.
No offer. Checked 2 accounts
But had to verify at recent purchases of mobile & Amazon sub.
(Received 10000pt for spend)
Thanks 😊. I got this and updated. Should take a few days for the bonus points to coming in
I was eligible, thanks OP.
Got it. Yippee.
Nothing here.
Offered me 5k points to add a direct debit to my account! Thanks!
Got this too but reluctant to do it given Telstra manage to overcharge for something pretty much every month.
Can you disable it straight after activating?
It says they’ll add the points to your account after one successful direct debit. So you could theoretically remove it after that?
use an account with just enough money for 1 month
Cheers , added to OP
I kinda regret that, I can't pay my bills early anymore.
why's you prefer this instead of just let them direct debit it?
also can't you remove the direct debit bank info?
I don't think I can remove it after adding it. I don't know why but I just like paying bills as soon as they are issued.
@AustriaBargain: can you check in the app if you can remove it?
that sucks if you can't.
don't want them to hold the bank detail etc forever.
Sweet! Thanks OP
what does 2500 points getcha
1/2 a Belong $80 starter pack, when they're next on special. 5000 points seems to be the going special rate now, with the 2000 point specials a distant memory. You can't get as much value out of the starter packs as you once could, either.
Half of a headphone jack dongle for iPhone. The dongle has the DAC and amp built into it so it's kind of a modern marvel imo.
Well Event cinemas adult tickets are 6-8k points.
Thanks OP I got 2500
5k points for direct debt, how much debt per point are we talking here?
5K Points for Direct Debt
Bonus points if you are bankrupt ?
Bonus $15 late fee.
Make sure you get a screen shot of the offer for updating contact details, direct debt etc. I forgot to and they never added the points to my account after accepting the offer.
Take screenshots ect.
I had a similar offer for signing up for direct debit, never credited the points and wasn’t given them even after contacting support and providing screenshots.
Had to email complaints.
I got the offer but never got the points after opt for direct debit.
I got the offer but never got the points. Telstra is so scummy.
I got this offer in the Telstra app 3 months ago. Updated and verified my details, but never got 2500 points.
Screen shot
Wait 2 weeks
Email complaints, they are pretty good. They reinstated my expired 10k telstra points
lucky you. I had similar issue and were told I "had" DD set up before so I cannot claim the bonus offer. Even I show them the screenshot.
You have to chase Telstra for the points, had it two accounts and none of them got the points automatically after verifying those details.
Nevermind, answered above!
I just ported away from Telstra yesterday for something cheaper. Be funny if they still sent me this though.
Got er dun, cheers.
We're getting in touch to let you know that we're discontinuing the Telstra Plus Market from 7 September 2023. We know this might be disappointing news, and we value your participation in our program.
Any Telstra plus points earned through Telstra Plus Market will remain in your account in accordance with the terms and conditions. From 7 September 2023, you won’t be able to earn any more points from Telstra Plus Market businesses. Any payment information we have on file will be removed.
We thank you for your support and participation. Access our privacy statement, which outlines how we handle all information.
Just received as well. Any good deals to spend remaining points? I can never get my head around how much a point is worth,
Just the Market is ending, not the whole Telstra Plus program? So no need to spend all your points now right?
same question 🙋
Just the market which was for buying from other stores and then earning Telstra points.
Most of us would have been members as we got bonus points for joining it.
I used mine on discounted Amazon gift cards the other week.
Bit of a pain, but I did it $10 at a time. Best transfer rate way.
Yep, cashed in my points for Amazon Prime subscription. It just tacked on to the end of my current Prime subscription.
Me too. Also redeemed the rest points to the Amazon gift cards.
Didn't know you could tack on to the end of existing sub.
That'd be a much better way to spend 24,000 points. Extra 12 months of Prime for what is effectively $48. Especially now that they're whacking their subscription fees up!
is the market part where you cash in your points for items?
That's the store which is apparently different to the market. I don't even know what the market is.
I no longer have any Telstra services but I got the offer, let's see if the points come through, says can take up to 14 days.
If you don't have any current service with Telstra, you can't redeem the points.
Not sure thats entirely true, I dont have any direct service with them but have been able to claim Belong starter packs
@FlyingPanda99: I have this also (no services), is it worth grabbing a $2 sim etc to use up points?
I have about 20k points but its probably not worth getting a service for?
@FlyingPanda99: This appears to be a new chance cos I've definitely redeemed without an active service. Shame.
Also wondering the same as Nismo below. Got 10k points and wondering if there's anything worthwhile?
thanks for it, updated
Thanks OP - collected some points :-)
offered 7500 points
Thanks…got 2500
They just want your data to be ready and fresh for the next hack / data dump.
I forgot to take a screenshot and Telstra never gave me the points for validating my number.
Could someone please send me a screenshot (with their personal details cropped/blanked out)?
Just draw it in MS Paint
Yep, just confirmed this works 100%
Got this offer ob my app. Original point 900.
Updated details on 14 July 23.
2500 Point not awarded. until today still 900 pt
Same here. No bonus points awarded yet.
I just logged in and all my points disappeared! I don’t have an active service but thought the points will at least remain wth.
As per https://www.telstra.com.au/plus/terms-and-conditions. …
Points expire after three years, and are wiped after 12 months if you don't have an active service. How long since you've had one?
I only knew points expire after 3 years, didn’t realise it will be wiped without an active service for 12months as well.. I only thought you can’t redeem without an active service. This is terrible :(
Not for me on 2 accounts.
Long ago verified email and mobile number
