JB are also offering the Pixel 8a on a $69 24 month plan for free. Phone fulfilment from 14/05/2024.
Total cost is $1656 and cost without coupons at JB is $849. Given current gift card offer is $500 for the $69 plan, this could be interesting if anyone was looking at combining the two.
Note: Expiry date on the graphics is 15 May. Expiry date on JB Hi-Fi's web page is 22 May (Don't Miss Out on These offer no. 3 of 4).
jb hi fi uses telstra network not optus.

Nice. A new phone for $450+69.
If only it was $30 cheaper
how? chinese
In what situation would a $69 per month two year contract be better than a $200 one year prepaid plan?
Most of the time pre-paid is better, but if you want a new phone and don’t have the money right now these plans can help.
What happened to all the 12 month deals
Gone the way of low prices at Coles and Woolies.
Just wondering under what situation would you churn 120GB of data a month using your mobile?
I was in this boat (kinda still am), my home internet mbps down wasnt good and didn't have access to higher tier plans and the mobile network speeds were way faster so I used it to do my steam game updates. So when I got home from work id link up to the phone to get the update then switch back to home internet to play as latency was better.
If it was your soul streaming/content consuming device alone, with mobile data the only option available/used for accessing the internet for whatever reason.
If it was your soul
You stream your soul?
So OP are you saying JB will give you free pixel 8a AND $500 gift card?
It’s one or the other, never both
What OP meant was that the everyday offer is the $500 JB gift card. Since we’re getting a free Pixel 8a when signing up, the new promo overrides the everyday promo
One or the other as said by BargainsGrabber. Unclear if the pre-order bonuses will also apply, but I’m guessing not.
Annoying I need to port out my existing number and then back in to get this deal. Any work-arounds?
Not sure if this still works but you can try create a new account with a new number. After this, port your existing number to a Telstra pre-paid number under the same account. Then you can contact Telstra support to switch the numbers of the accounts so the new number is now the prepaid plan and your existing number is under the postpaid plan. You can let the new number lapse and it should be fine.
This worked 2 or 3 years ago, but I’m not sure if they’ve caught on to this scheme yet.
ported out and in within 15mins. Salesperson told me to get the Belong prepaid which was on special, then i ported back in. even took the cost of the prepaid off my purchase
nice, this sounds the easiest
which start pack is on special, as I don't see it online?
was a belong prepaid, got it in store for $22
I really wish these deals would sync better with when I break phones.
does this work if i port from a telstra simcard?
I plan to trade in old phone for $1 + $300 trade in bonus and get the 256 gig model. Am I correct in assuming it will cost nothing upfront and hopefully get the $200 gift card?

I’d probably never sign with Optus again because it’s always been trash in my area, but this is also good to know!
