Same deal with this one but now JB have reduced down $1500 gift card instead $1700

Credit to @evilhomura89

As confirmed in the previous JB Telstra cancellation deals , the cancellation cost would be $766.59 + $89 for the first month fee
Hence the total cost would be $766.59+$89+$2187-$1500 = $1542.59 for the 256GB Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra
In addition to the above, JB is throwing in an extra $300 Bonus Giftcard for this sign up, bringing the cost down to $1052.59 $1252.59

EDIT: for those who are with Telstra, you might have an opportunity to bring the price lower by asking JB to price match Telstra store.

    Waiting for similar deal on iphone 15 pro max…🤞🏼🤞🏼

    • Sunnyoz on 19/09/2024 - 02:54

      Is that for iPhone pro max 16 or 15 ? Keen on getting 16 pro max too
      Edit: here is actually what I found on JB’s website $1000 off any iPhone 16 pro max , not as good as the Samsung deal though

        Anyone wanna run the math for this?

        • V003 on 19/09/2024 - 11:19

          For 16 pro max 766.59+$89+2147-1000=2,013, saving $144.
          For 15 pro max 766.59+$89+1947-1000=1803, saving $144.
          My math might be wrong, i just took the numbers from above changed to iphone price/discount

    Math doesn't add up. How does adding in a $300 gift card from $1542.59 make it $1052.59?

    • worthy1 on 19/09/2024 - 07:46

      I dont like when deals say the bonus GC bringing down the cost. It does not bring down your out of pocket costs at all. Its a 'bonus' for you to use down the track.

      looks like op forgot to update with the 1500 voucher (previous post had 1700 voucher)

      new total would be $1542.59 - 300 = 1,242.59, that's assuming you take the gift card value into account

      (personally I agree with @worthy1)

      Same deal. Just subtract $1500 from the cost of the 512gb version.

  • Jklaro on 19/09/2024 - 04:41

    Ive tried to price match then get the deal but no luck from 2 jbhifi stores and 1 good guys.

      Try at Cranbourne Homemaker Centre Store, they did a price match for my friend without Telstra account.

      • kingkhan1990 on 19/09/2024 - 18:11

        If you are in Sydney go to world square Jb. They are doing it

  • soler946 on 19/09/2024 - 05:21

    JB won’t price match - when I asked they said “the discount other companies are doing, JB is doing via a bonus gift card” so no double dipping unfortunately.

    • worthy1 on 19/09/2024 - 07:53
      +3

      Thats not true for everyone. For the last one i price matched, received the discount and bonus giftcard with no hesitation from the JB staff.

      The staff member checked the terms and said 'as long as you have a telstra account'. He then also asked his manager that was nearby and he said ' yes we can, as long as they have a Telstra' account.

      I would get them to show you the T&C's for the deal or their price matching that says you cant rather than some of them just saying no because they think its too much of a good deal.

      • itsfree on 19/09/2024 - 08:50

        Same - price matched with Centrecom

    • babiguling on 19/09/2024 - 08:30

      do you have to have an active Telstra account to price match?

  • Huack on 19/09/2024 - 10:13

    Seems like a worse deal than the previous where it was $99 per month with $1700 off the price of the phone. Has JB realised?

    • HiredGoon on 19/09/2024 - 10:41

      It looks like a worse deal for people that are planning to instantly cancel and wear the fee.

      For the people like me that are looking at using the plan for the duration, it's actually better off, by about $40.
      ($200 higher cost at checkout, but $10 cheaper plan pm x 24 months).
      The data/calls seems the same as the previous deal, just cheaper per month.

      If, like me, your only option is Telstra, and you require this much data, this looks to be the better deal.

  • Rattata7 on 19/09/2024 - 10:53

    When is this promo deal expire?

  • Stew-y on 19/09/2024 - 12:21

    as a current telstra jb plan user (24 month has expired so now month to month) do I have to do the port-out-wait-30-days rigmarole first?

    • HiredGoon on 20/09/2024 - 11:00
      +1

      You used to be able to get around this by creating a new account with new number at JBs, then walking into Telstra and cancelling your old plan and moving the number across to the new account.

      They did indicate to me just over 2 months ago, that they thought this to be a rather unsavoury practice… Forgetting the fact that they are engaging in the unsavoury practice of only rewarding new customers and driving away existing ones.

      Does anyone know if this is still ok to do? For those of us that work remotely, porting out for 2-4 weeks isn't an option, unless I buy a boost prepaid sim for the duration.

      • Yukari Yakumo on 20/09/2024 - 21:02

        Yes, I did it just a few days ago from the earlier S24 Ultra deal.

        I also find it baffling that they'd rather force their existing Telstra customers to port to Optus/Vodafone/etc first (or otherwise completely miss out on the deal), than also extend the same offer to them out of goodwill in order to retain these customers. Seems like a shortsighted strategy of prioritising new customers while confidently assuming that existing customers will just lie down and go "ah well, nothing I can do about it".

        I feel zero remorse for exploiting the cluelessness of their staff, if they're going to be like this.

        • HiredGoon on 21/09/2024 - 07:48

          Just confirming, you were able to cancel your old plan, and merge old number over to new plan?

          Did you do this at Telstra or JB?

          My wife is planning to go sign me up to a new contract this morning, so just checking I'm all good.

          • Yukari Yakumo on 21/09/2024 - 23:48

            @HiredGoon: Yes, I was able to move my old Telstra number over to the new JB plan. I did this in-store at JB Hi-Fi, based on the workaround mentioned in my post from the earlier deal's thread. After the JB staff member said that everything was done, I swapped SIMs and then opened an incognito browser tab to sign into my Amazon account, just to make sure that I received the login 2FA SMS message from Amazon, which would confirm that the number was correctly ported (and it was).

    What happens if I returned the phone? Would I get $1500 gift card?

    • DealDestroyer on 20/09/2024 - 16:56

      this. I am also curious to know

  • Rhodekil on 19/09/2024 - 12:41

    FYI - JB HiFi will NOT price match as stated on their website.

    "Exclusions apply for Cashback offers and store credits, bonus and bundled promotions, coupon promotions, grey or direct import products not sold through an authorised Australian reseller, commercial orders, competitor advertising errors, members only or subscription prices, third-party JB Hi-Fi Marketplace products, and competitor clearance products or products with limited or restricted quantities."

    • crentist on 20/09/2024 - 01:29

      Which part of that excludes Telstra or Centrecom?
      They are selling Australian stock at lower prices, for straight cash. That's a price match

      • Rhodekil on 20/09/2024 - 14:01

        The offer gives you a voucher…

        "coupon promotions"

        They will not price match if you are using a voucher. I have even asked them personally.

  • equinoxxx on 19/09/2024 - 13:36

    Why does the title incorrectly state $687….it should be $1542.59.

    • sekhon147 on 19/09/2024 - 15:11

      If you keep the plan then its 687 + (89×24) - 300 gift card.

      If you cancel the plan then its 1542 - 300 gift card.

      • equinoxxx on 19/09/2024 - 16:04
        +2

        So, its TCO is $2523 if you keep the plan and $1242 if you cancel. I would suggest that keeping this on a plan is not a "bargain".

  • reddot12 on 19/09/2024 - 16:59

    what does 'voucher repayment fee' mean on their terms?

      That's International model. They always price match with AU stock.

      • AEA on 23/09/2024 - 17:15

        Sorry mate, how can I know if it's an international model or Australian one?

        • Be Happy on 23/09/2024 - 18:20

          Copied from Google

          What model number is the S24 Ultra International version?
          SM-S928B/
          Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Dual Sim (SM-S928B/DS) - 5G Global Model.

        • Avi0001 on 23/09/2024 - 20:49

          First thing is model number just google it and second they will not mentioned that its Aus stock. They just mentioned that its Australian business.

  • beach bum on 23/09/2024 - 16:38

    They’re really making it difficult to get a refund for these phones ,
    I don’t think it’s worth the effort unless you’re happy to keep it if the refund process doesn’t work out.

    • DealDestroyer on 23/09/2024 - 18:23

      Hey, could I ask why the refund process is difficult? I was planning to cancel the plan and refund as apparently that's possible as mentioned by others here. Thank you

    • Avi0001 on 23/09/2024 - 20:46

      Returned on another store and got the value as a jbhifi gift card of exact value of $1487 becauae tthe another store price matched but not 100% instead of $300 of price match gap he advised me that he can reduce bu $200 so I accepted.

      • DealDestroyer on 23/09/2024 - 20:50

        Were you able to keep the additional 300 buck gift card as well?

  • affinity on 28/09/2024 - 14:41

    For price matching, probably not buying this,but a bit more ozbargaining…
