            @life is suffering: So then the comment made by @OZsince2018 "Yes. Thats correct. $300 GC with the phone will be on top of the $1200 voucher, but you cannot use the $300 GC to reduce or pay the for the phone." is incorrect then.

            • calus on 02/10/2024 - 23:45

              @Mani88: The 1500 off replaces the 1200 gift card. In their system it generates a 1500 gift card when you get the contract with the s24 Ultra, without the phone it generates the 1200 gift card.

              The 300 dollar gift card is independent and comes as offer with the phone. But I think that offer ended today?

    • HeyJJ on 02/10/2024 - 23:21

      I don’t think you can as $1500 off and $300 bonus GC promotion expires today.

      • Mani88 on 02/10/2024 - 23:22

    How long do you have to be away to be a new customer?
    I ported out 2 weeks ago.

  • prubie on 02/10/2024 - 23:13

    Sorry if this has been asked and answered before, but is the coverage and speed on a JB mobile plan that same as being with telstra, or is it given a lower priority such as Woolworths on the Optus network etc etc.

    • CharcoaI on 03/10/2024 - 07:47

      It's the same as being with Telstra 👍

  • Meteor Anarcom on 02/10/2024 - 23:39

    Can I order a new number or I need a current non-Telstra number? And after first month, we can pay less than $800 to cancel it by calling Telstra. So, Telstra won't know how much gift card we get and the repayment fee will only be depending on the CIS page. Is my understanding correct?

  • Wenlyirawan on 03/10/2024 - 00:31

    Can anyone help me , if i want to buy 16 pro and trade in with my 15 pro and use this deals

    I want to get the lowest possible price.

    • Meteor Anarcom on 03/10/2024 - 00:36

      not worth to trade 15pro for 16pro, just keep your cash

    • ggmm2013123 on 03/10/2024 - 00:43

      Yes, trade the phone first and you will get Jb gift card straight away. Use that + $1200 giftcard + pay reminder using additional gift card

      • fozzie on 03/10/2024 - 01:07

        Yes, what’s the point of upgrading from a 15 pro? I have a 14 pro which I’m keeping for at least another year. Usually I pass down anyway to family and only thinking of upgrading as kid has iPhone 11 (which isn’t getting iOS 19.). So more of a safety upgrade
        .

  • mr_asstight on 03/10/2024 - 00:38

    So we can pay cancellation on this plan on day 1 of sign up and pocket the $1200 gift card, right?

    • DryScissors on 03/10/2024 - 03:24

      Read the thread. Question has been answered a few times.

  • ggmm2013123 on 03/10/2024 - 00:41

    I used the similar deal $99 per month for $1200 giftcard. Bought iphone 16 pro - paid $1200 using the giftcard received in this deal, paid $99 for the mobile using credit card and rest using ultimate him gift card bought from coles.
    So, Your net discount for any model could be $1200 - $800 JB HiFi charge back - $89 = $311
    If you get lucky you may only have to pay $766 as the chargeback is calculated prorata based and you may even attempt to get $89 back if you cancel the number straight away.
    So your net discount if you get lucky $1200 -$766 =$434.00

    Would I need a SIM before getting this deal, or can they just give me a new one?

    • 2oldforthis on 03/10/2024 - 12:13

      They can give you a new one, with a new number.

  • cloudy on 03/10/2024 - 05:25

    Sorry not sure if this has been asked.

    When you call you to cancel how do you port your number out to another carrier? I don’t want to stay on the Telstra plan.

  • Pateljigarr on 03/10/2024 - 07:16

    Does anyone know , if I go to Jbhifi today around 6 pm I can still get this deal
    89$ plan with the 1200$ gift card .
    I am working till 1800 so I will not get chance and I can see they’re open till 9pm . If this deal is only for today then I hope I can get .

    • yojabbajabba on 03/10/2024 - 07:31

      It's all day, so you should be good if your local JB has later open hours.

      • bigbadboogieman on 03/10/2024 - 07:41

        It's Thursday so should be open till late?

  • Savings-king on 03/10/2024 - 07:19

    If planning to get iphone 16 with this, use TCN gift cards from woolworths for additional 10% off on the phone for the reminder amount

    • G-rig on 03/10/2024 - 07:31

      What's the question?
      You'd use the $1200 GC to buy at JB hi-fi, and pay the remainder however you like.

      • Savings-king on 03/10/2024 - 13:16

        It's a comment for someone who is planning to buy phone for additional savings. Did you see a question mark there ?

        • G-rig on 03/10/2024 - 13:18

          Pretty poorly worded, I didn't see a full stop either. Sounded like a question.

          Don't care lol

      I did it when i purchased the s24 ultra deal that included $1700 GC offset against the cost of the phone and an additional $300 GC. The cancellation fee was $766.

        Pretty good deal, kept the s24 ultra, couldn't be bothered waiting for the 9 Pro.

        Prefer pixel overall but have it set up much the same.

    • czyk on 03/10/2024 - 11:11

      Can anyone confirm that the Good Guys has the same CIS and voucher repayment fee?

  • amoo-handy on 03/10/2024 - 07:56

    Can you use the voucher to Pay JB for the monthly sim? Either monthly or upfront?

    Because then this works out to be $39/ month correct?

    • JordanM on 03/10/2024 - 09:20

      You can’t, it’s billed via Telstra and you can’t pay using JB GC

    I've got exactly this plan and be aware hotspotting gets throttled very quickly.

    Ive found that I can use a VPN on the phone that masks it and works as intended.

    Customer support is terrible fyi, the cell tower was down in my area and thier only solution was to restart the phone hahaha jokers

    • inherentchoice on 03/10/2024 - 10:37

      What do they throttle it to? What if I use a 4G/5G modem-router?

      • srhardy on 03/10/2024 - 11:21
        +1

        throttling is the unsung (not even mentioed in the small print) and it affects apple phones and some andriods that report all data traffic info back to the carrrier. They know this is the case so to not effect the NBN and someone torrenting they THROTTLE it. So normal speeds might be 100mbs but throttled its often 2-5mbs and you notice it when it kicks in. No real ryme nor reason ever given on any of the three providers that implament some sort of network managment of data by 'proitising' some over others. Drop a sim from a tablet into a modem and b-mark them and see for yourself!

        • Headless on 03/10/2024 - 12:23

          Correct, significant speed difference from the phone directly and hotspotting.

          Its not the phone as Ive tried Apple, Samsung and Huawei, no difference, throttling is definitely occuring

        • inherentchoice on 03/10/2024 - 12:28

          It seems like there's a secret barrier to prevent mobile data and these SIMs being used as an alternative to NBN.

          • SirFrankGrimes on 04/10/2024 - 06:35

            @inherentchoice: Is it the Australian Government who put this rule in place?

              @SirFrankGrimes: Yes I blame Kevin 07 for starting all the mess and waste.

              Pretty sure NBN Co already got in trouble for anti competitive practices before.

      • Headless on 03/10/2024 - 13:40

        Download a vpn app on your phone, then hotspot as usual

        • congo on 03/10/2024 - 15:02

          Does the vpn on your phone has to be connected to some country?

  • tunatsuna12345 on 03/10/2024 - 08:23

    Theyve changed their CIS online saying:

    "The $1200 JB Hi-Fi Gift Card will replace the value of the Voucher stated in the Critical Information Summary."

    Be careful guys.

    • Ovapoweredqcumba on 03/10/2024 - 08:41
      +1

      As I read that term in the CIS, replacing the value of the Voucher is not replacing the value of the Voucher Replacement Fee. These are two separate and defined terms.

      Edit: Next minute, OzB brings class action against JB.

      You can always request a copy to be printed or shown to you before signing and confirm that you see the cancellation cost of $800

    Is this a good deal to get if one is waiting for the upcoming pixel 9 pro (not fold or XL) and then use the $1200 off the outright cost, or do people think wait for a specific pixel deal?

    • star-ggg on 03/10/2024 - 08:55

      You can double up on whatever deal they will have. This deal gives you a GC you can use to pay for whatever the cash amount is on the pixel.

    • srhardy on 03/10/2024 - 11:30

      The plans have to be ALL on JBHIFI or GoogGuys, they dont bundle over to other Telstra offerings as they are operating as VirtualNetworks and just use T$ for billing and services. So yeah you want to pick up the $ for everyones phone on your account, bundle away but id go V$ then as 5 services gets a 20% plan discount off the top of whatever deal they offer and they will price match if you call them! Plus bundling is easier, the discounts nicer and they have $79/600gb $1200 off an iPhoneXX for 36 months ($64 each for 600gb after 20% and just get some $20/30gb $16 after discount ea to get to the 5 devices and bundle all the data! Put a sim in a tablet, sim in a modem from marketplace and stop paying for NBN)
