Forgive me for this lazy post, had a feeling some of y'all might still like to know.

Was looking around for deals cause I'm in the market for a fridge and a phone and realised JB Hi-Fi bumped their gift cards for the mobile plans up by a bit again!

Feel free to report if it isn't a deal, felt higher than the last one posted 🤔

Available to port-in and new customers only (excluding JB Upfront/Prepaid, The Good Guys Mobile & Broadband, Telstra & Boost). The JB Hi-Fi Gift Card (referred to as the “JB Hi-Fi Voucher” in the Telstra Terms and Conditions) will be available to you instore after connection approval by Telstra. The $1100 JB Hi-Fi Gift Card will replace the value of the Voucher stated in the Critical Information Summary. 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. This offer is not available in conjunction with any other JB Hi-Fi mobile or broadband offer. Gift Card subject to Terms and Conditions. Gift card offer ends 7/08/24.

    Did this 3 years ago, was already with Telstra, but they just gave me a new number then transferred my existing number across to the new plan. Tried again this week and they said they can't do it any more. The other work around I've done in the past is port to Optus on a prepaid sim, then go back to JB and sign up, had mixed results depending on the JB store/sales person.
    Also I believe this ends 7th August

    they have a deal. $99 a month and get a free flip 6 phone worth like $1700.

      Looks like it's provided as an $1800 gift card as payment against the flip6, which is good for those who claim their phone + monthly bill on tax.

    • NuttyGoodness on 03/08/2024 - 15:35

      How much can you flip them for? lol

    • snvl on 03/08/2024 - 16:03

      worth like $1700

      Sure

    24 month plan makes it bullshit though (should probably put that in the post). I would be down for 12 months. Also correct me if im wrong but in the link it says $550 for the $79 plan

      Is $700 in store, just saw it earlier today (NSW)

    I really don't want to support the normalization of 24 month plans or $99 a month plans. Both are ridiculous and the "free" phones are bait to permanently raise the bar.

      You do realise this plan is actually free JB money?

        Excuse me, yes, it's money. Just saying a lot of people look at it as directly applicable to the reduction of cost of a phone. Either way, the temptation for the gift card encourages the normalization of larger and larger packages. We don't need a one-off discounted 24 / 99 package, we need shorter cheaper ones as a standard.

    • iknowtj on 03/08/2024 - 17:13

      24 month plans have been around forever.

    So basically at $99 per month its half price ($49 a month). You can still get better deals with Superloop and ALDI mobile which both use the telstra 5g network.

    • NuttyGoodness on 03/08/2024 - 16:27

      Better deals with 300gb of data? I can’t find any

    • serpserpserp on 03/08/2024 - 16:38

      Weird. My superloop plan only uses the 4G network

      • freefall101 on 03/08/2024 - 17:11

        The $40 and up plans use 5G. Still speed capped to 100mb/s though unless you go the $60 plan.

    • freefall101 on 03/08/2024 - 17:13

      I assume there's some people out there that use this much data. You consider the 150GB plan at Superloop is $60 a month and telstra is $79 for 150GB, it's a good option to go straight with Telstra. Costs $456 more, get a $700 gift card and no speed cap.

      I say this as someone who used about 20GB last year (for the whole year) though, I'm going to pass on this deal.

    This seems like a really bad deal even with the gift card. Only worth it if somebody else is paying for the monthly cost.

      Your forgetting getting a 99$ bill for tax deductions

      • Silentninja7 on 03/08/2024 - 16:31

        This tax deductions and gift cards makes it like 33$ a momth for 300gb telstra 5g, not bad

        • confidantduk on 03/08/2024 - 16:45

          can someone tl;dr how to claim this as a tax deduction? after so many years claiming tax I'm still a noob

          1. Uses phone for work and does wfh/sales
          2. Claims it in tax return under wfh costs
          3. Get 10% back in the form of tax return?

          I don't need a super accurate process, just wanna know the general direction I should go snooping 🕵️
