      So a good deal it looks like! I really doubt you would get the $900 jb gift card too, but not sure

    "If you cancel or move to a lower cost/different plan, then you must pay a Voucher Repayment Fee to Telstra pro-rated against the remaining months of your plan’s minimum term. "

    If the Flip 6 is basically a voucher of $1799, then you must pay back the voucher pro-rata, e.g. if you cancel after 23/24 months you have to pay $1724. That's how it is outlined in the conditions for getting a voucher with a cash value. Maximum repayment fee is the full amount of the voucher.

    This is a completely different plan compared to the HN/Optus deal.

    • tselmeg on 31/07/2024 - 15:33

      Not exactly true. As mentioned in the comment below, telstra states that the maximum voucher repayment fee is 800$.

      • linkser on 31/07/2024 - 16:44

        Not quite sure about that if at the same time it says "referred to as the “JB Hi-Fi Voucher” in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summar

        So this is very different conditions written compared to the optus deal where it was clearly referring to 1/2 price of plan pro rata.

  • vchung916 on 31/07/2024 - 15:27
    +6

    The maximum voucher repayment fee is $766.67 in case anyone wants to know.

    • EitherWayUp on 31/07/2024 - 15:30

      So get the phone for free, go home, cancel the plan and pay $766.67 to keep the phone?

      • vchung916 on 31/07/2024 - 15:33

        No, when you start your plan, you will be charged for the first month for $99 and there is no refund.

        • EitherWayUp on 31/07/2024 - 15:38
          +7

          Ok so pay $99 + $766.67 = $865.67 total cost out of pocket for a flippin flip 6?

    • Kanjus on 31/07/2024 - 15:32
      +2

      So does that mean you get flip6 outright for effective cost of $766. If so, shut up and take my money

    • alphawolf on 31/07/2024 - 15:40
      +2

      This max voucher repayment fee of $766.67 is for $800 voucher. For a higher voucher and/ or value of phone the scenario would be different I believe.

      • vchung916 on 31/07/2024 - 16:18
        +1

        I think you are right, the terms stated

        "Available to port-in and new customers only (excluding JB Upfront/Prepaid, The Good Guys Mobile & Broadband, Telstra or Boost). The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 256GB Phone [752452, 752453, 752454, 752455] (referred to as the “JB Hi-Fi Voucher” in the Telstra Terms and Conditions and replacing the dollar value of the Voucher in the Critical Information Summary)"

        So the voucher repayment fee will be the voucher amount x 23/24.

    For which I think it's fair to say that if you cancel you will pay value of phone / 24 x months remaining as cancellation fee. You'll have a hard time convincing JB to accept the lower amount suggested above.

    • mjkwon74 on 01/08/2024 - 09:50
      +1

      JB and Telstra changed their CIS few years ago. For old CIS, there were ETC ($1188) and Maximum Vouhcer Reimbursement fee ($800) for $99 plan. If someone cancels early, Telstra charged both (pro-rata). But, after they changed with upfront plan, they removed ETC and changed name of 'Maximum voucher reimbursement fee' with 'Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee'. So, JB and Telstra made this loophole.

  • theone4u on 31/07/2024 - 20:29

    These are the T&C's
    Basically $1800 off either the Flip or Fold on the $99 plan, if you cancel then you gotta pay that $1800 voucher provided by JB HI-FI

    • drazenm on 31/07/2024 - 23:18

      So in short however you look at it least you'll be able to get the flip 6 256GB would be $1800 + $99?

    • mjkwon74 on 01/08/2024 - 09:35
      +2

      No. For previous iPad and iPhone deal, T&C showed same. Telstra CIS has two (Voucher and Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee). CIS shows Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee is $800 for $99 Plan. So, if you cancel, the cancellation fee will be $800 x remaining month / 24.
      There is no change of T&C and CIS from iPad $1000 OFF a nd iPhone 15 series deals. If JB and Telstra want to get the voucher amount, they should replace 'Maximum Vouhcer Repayment Fee' instead of 'Voucher' value.

      • vchung916 on 02/08/2024 - 12:14

        They already stated replacing the voucher value.

          In CIS, 'Voucher' value and 'Maximum Voucher Repaument Fee' are different. Even if 'Voucher' value is replaced, we need to pay 'Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee' if we cancel. In last month, many people purchased iPhone 15 series using this similar deal. Their T&C doesn't say 'Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee' is repalced.

      The maximum termination fee is $800. Anyone who can read terms and conditions can tell that. It’s public information and told to you at the point of sign up. It’s not a debate, it’s not what JB/Telstra decide later, it’s not dependant on the value of the gift card you receive in store, it’s $800. Ask any JB employee. Phone JB and ask them. It’s $800. Every time one of these deals gets posted it gets debated over and over and over.

    The ETC's are $800 and as most people pay their first month up front, that is lowered to $766.67 odd as the fee is pro rata and goes down around $33.33 per month. ($800/24)

    No other fees are applicable and the IMEI is taken when invoicing just as the gift card needs to be used against a Flip/Fold so this is how it is confirmed.

          This much confusion over buying a phone. Imagine you go in the store and no one wants or knows to answer you a simple question for an item that they have for sale and should know what the items terms and conditions actually mean, to explain to the customer. If you as a sales person, store, don't know or don't want to answer directly what you've been asked, how, why, am i to buy it? I'm supposed to just get it, stay for 2 years and "everyone" is happy?

          All this scamming, scheming, literally need to know the law or be a law expert to purchase a simple phone. It's simply criminal.

              @bcaoj: Not sure what the issue is. Have tried a few times with different agents over chat and phone in the last few days. They provide the cancellation fee, which I agree to, then they start processing the order but they hit some sort of error when submitting the order.

        • drazenm on 07/08/2024 - 20:29

          It's $800.

          If you get the flip 6 256GB it's $800.

          Your phone is paid by a JB gift card by the staff in the store when you sign up, the value of the card is $1799 so it full pays off the phone. Because the plan is $0 on a $99 24 month plan.

          So if you cancel within first month the maximum fee is $800-$33.33 from the first month of $99 that you have to pay on the spot when signing up for the plan.

          So it come up all together approx $865-66

          Problem now is the $1100 gift card for flip 6 256gb ends today and unfortunately stores are now closed, I'm not sure if it's possible to sign up online for the deal. Tomorrow starts a new deal, no Idea what will it be, they didn't know in store to tell me and i couldn't find online neither anything.

              @[Deactivated]: I was told on Monday that the $1100 gift card on the $0 flip 256GB on $99 plan ends today. Anyway, it is what it is, got it today, i doubt will get any cheaper outright then the around $865 anytime soon.

                @drazenm: The $1100 and the flip 6 are different offers. The flip 6 offer was always stated to end next Wednesday. The $1100 was due to end yesterday but has been extended until next Wednesday.

                  @[Deactivated]: Hmmm, that's strange. What other flip 6 offer is there? As the person that was doing the process for me was specifically looking around to see around the store if the $1100 gift card is still running as it was apparently need for the deal.

            @drazenm: Hi Drazenm

            Thanks for the reply. Please let us know how you go cancelling, as of right now I don't think i've heard of someone successfully cancel it

            • drazenm on 08/08/2024 - 03:10

              @bcaoj: I have no idea what's the problem to cancel? No one has the right to hold you in a contract its literally illegal. Maybe it's too soon? I was told to come around 10 to 7 days before first month is up, that i can come to JB store and they'll cancel it for me. Did anyone try going to the store? That's where you've gotten your service 🤷

              Otherwise escalate with telstra and let them know you want it to be marked on your customer account, profile that you've contacted them that and that day to cancel immediately not a week or two later, or month, now! So they wouldn't play the sorry this that game and drag you along, so if things linger longer you have the right to request refund for any further charges they've made.

              @bcaoj: We process these cancellations every day. Nobody is holding you to a contract against your will. The cancellation fee is max $800.

                @[Deactivated]: Haven't been able to get it cancelled, even in store.

                • bcaoj on 08/08/2024 - 16:22

                  @sogai: What did the people in store say?

                  • sogai on 09/08/2024 - 00:46

                    @bcaoj: Nothing really.. There's just an error saying "something went wrong" when submitting the cancellation order. Might just be system issues I guess

                    • nerdinary on 12/08/2024 - 13:34

                      @sogai: @sogal have you been able to cancel? I'm thinking of heading into the store and picking this up today, but after reading all the comments in this thread, I'm yet to see someone say - "I've cancelled and all I paid was $800"

    Just a thought, why waste time to call when you can just port out via a $2 sim?

    I thought I will share this.
    Signed up 2 days ago and successfully cancel today via JB Hi-Fi mobile app
    I will need to repay the value of the gift card amounting to AUD 766.59 + AUD 99 (paid initially - not sure if i am going to get a portion of this back)

      Thanks man, I'll try this today

      Does the invoice show $0?
      Wondering if it shows $0 is that the full refund if something goes wrong? And also wouldn't be able to salary sacrifice.

      Or does it show paid with gift card or something?

      Did you actually end up paying this or this is what you think you "will pay"? Did you receive a final bill for this amount either via email or saw this amount in the App when you cancelled?
