      • They've never checked mine. Just say you want to port. If they ask, say it's been 30 days…

      • I did it around Black Friday this year.

    • perfect, gonna have to do this myself. Where/which optus prepaid did you get?

      • $2 Sim card from colesworth

    • So have I.. several times

  • I'm on JB Hifi mobile plan now. Can I port into a cheap plan for a day then and then port back to get this deal? Is there a time delay?

    • +1

      Usually 30 days. Although this commenter has had a different experience, however not been the case by many based on previous posts.

  • The gift card offer ends on 27/12 and I believe most of the comments would be for the cancellation fee which is around $800!

  • Go in - get 3 sims (buy 3 aldi sims for $5) - cancel next day calling telstra, moan a bit and they will give youback first 1 month fee and maybe even discount the voucher repayment.

    • Can you port-in a new ALDI number from the $5 sim to JB?

      • Also interested if this works, it’s not listed in exclusions but isn’t Aldi Telstra?

        • I'll give it a try… i've seen people port-in form ALDI to Boost with no issues.

            @abe465: Let us know how you go, planning to do 2x or 3x of this method

            • @Jemz: Done in the past - not an issue then. They care about direct contracts, just cant be a Telstra customer. Aldi,Woolies, catch etc many others can be tried.
              Cancel/cry to telstra (dont do it on JBHIFI app) and you may walk away with more than the first month charges and cancellation charges. (Mileage will vary).

            • +1

              @Jemz: It worked no issues, just got a $5 PAYG sim no recharge

              • @abe465: An Aldi one or something else?

                Did you buy $5 sim, put in phone and activate, then go to jb and sign up to plan and reference the newly bought $5 sim.

                Just want to check steps before I do 3x

                • @Jemz: Yep. ALDI $5 PAYG Sim. Activated, waited for activation confirmation. Went to JB, asked to port in that new ALDI #. Got the $1200 giftcard.

    • +1

      But paying the fee for a cancelled contract is still a business expense and deductible

    • +1

      Whatchu talkin' bout?!

    • +1

      idk why after reading this i had the law and order theme playing in my head

    • +2

      What are you on about mate?

      If a telco offers you to break the contract where you’ve to pay the ETC, how’s that against the Criminal Code of imprisonment?

      If you don’t know what you’re talking about, best not to say anything tbh

    • +3

      Intern paralegal. Thanks. Next

    • You can cancel it though, they dont charge you for the 2 years, they only charge you for the first month and upto $800 for the voucher, and like others have said, if you complain about it to telstra, they even cancel the first month payment sometimes

    • Done this over 4 times and only paid $766 termination fee each… but (profanity) me right?

    • Alternatively you can get a Felix unlimited data plan for $40 a month on Telstra and save the $1200 to spend on whatever you want.

      This is a joke, right?

      Felix have significantly worse coverage than Telstra, as an MVNO, and their "unlimited" plan only allows for speeds of up to 20 Mbps, whereas I regularly get around 130 Mbps on this plan.

  • Yes it seems the Definition of Voucher and Voucher Repayment Fee are different. Hence the voucher is boosted to $1,200 but the repayment is max $800 (less pro-rata for the first month and then roll the dice if they refund the first month’s plan fee).

    • Whats the difference, seems to work the same way

  • +1

    If don’t see the deal here unless you need 300Gb/month, which is an insane amount of data for a mobile phone.

    • +1

      Buy the plan, cancel it and pay only $766. End up with a $1200 gift. Money glitch

  • +1

    Is this same as previous deals where you purchase plan and cancel immediately and you’ll only have to pay $800 to cancel the plan and get to keep the $1,200 gift card ?

    • -1

      even less if you call up telstra and complain.

      • What have you managed? And do you mind sharing how you did it?

        • -2

          I got the first month fee waived, then had to pay the GC value 765$.
          tried it via telstra

          next time i did via JBHIF app and they didnt refund the 1st month fee.

          Mate of mine signed up 6 (3 for each him and his partner) and had the 1s month fee waived (he said cooling period) and then made some drama about the repayment voucher and they made him pay 600 instead of 765.

          your mileage will vary depending on who is your agent - definetly do not go via jbhifi app. call up telstra and do it from there..

      • What's the number?

        • +1

          telstra call center. or via app (i used that)

    • Seems like it

  • +3

    Does anyone know if JB mobile uses the full Telstra network or the wholesale one? My personal experience is it makes a noticeable difference when you are in country/remote areas.

    • Full Telstra network 😊

      • Thanks mate

  • +2

    So they have stopped giving this deal to new customers because of we all cancel the new number to merge it with our old account?

    • -3

      We?
      More like You.

  • How quick does port ins usually take? Will they give you the gift card and all prior to that happening or do you have to wait for the port in to complete?

    • +1

      When i did this 2 years ago, gift card on the spot

  • Do you still have to be ported out for 30 days or has it changed? I read the CIS and terms conditions and dont see it written, can anyone comfirm if they removed thie?

  • I only swapped to vodafone 2 days ago after my previous 24month 99$ plan expired, i will go grt this now if 30 days is not required

    • Do it and tell us. Haha

  • -2

    so 889 or less for 1200 jb gift card? am i reading it right ? what does CIS stand for?

    • CIS critical information summary

    • sounds like someone's CIS-curious before they consider going "buy"!!

  • Easy $400 profit for new years

    • +1

      Or $300 if you have to buy a new sacrificial sim card and they won't repay you the $89 first month.

      • +1

        Cool Thanks $300 it is

      • +1

        or 400+ if they give you a portion of the credit back

  • Will the customer receive a refund if they choose to cancel the plan the day after purchasing it

    • not with jbhifi. se telstra to cancel

  • Anyone know if the salesperson still gets a commission if the plan is cancelled later in the day?

    • yes, someone working for JB previously confirmed this…they get paid regardless what happened later.

  • Hi!

    Has anyone tried the method of signing up on a new number to get the gift cards, then cancelling their exisiting number with Telstra/jb hi fi, and request to be ported onto the new plan?

    • get 5$ aldi mobile pre paid and port over. happy days

  • I just ported from Telstra to Aldi yesterday - Would I be eligible to port straight back and get this deal?

    • +1

      get a 5$ aldi line and happy porting days.

  • -1

    So you have to have a another mobile plan so that you can port in , no way of just getting a new number ?

    • was in the past deals. they realized it was too easy and lots of oz rats doing it for the instant credit discounts

  • What do you guys use 300GB pm for?

    • Linux isos… on my phone… honest

      • +1

        Linux isos?

        • Fark… I feel old now mate…

    • Porn

      • only 300GB?! lol

    • home internet alternative

  • +1

    Does porting your number to jb hifi cancelling the plan then porting your number to another provider get rid of your phone number?

  • Can you still access the Telstra app and Telstra rewards with the JB Mobile plan ?

    • Yes

  • Has anyone tried combining/swapping the plans between an existing number on a Telstra plan and a ported in number on the JB plan recently?

    I did this successfully 2-3 times in previous years but that was before JB plans got spun off into a new carrier, so not sure if it works anymore.

  • -1

    Any tabs (samsung tabs9/s10 ultra) qualify for this deal?

  • I got the same deal 2 years ago and it is expiring in 2 days, the "early termination fee" still showing as $70+….

  • Guys,
    Can I buy this plan first and use the same $1200 GC to buy mobile phone?
    Thanks in advance!

    • You can use the gift card to purchase whatever you want

      • Or you can give the gift card free to me

  • Has anyone tried porting out to another provider like Aldi for less than 30 days and successfully gotten this deal?

    I’m currently with JB Hi-Fi Mobile and considering porting to Aldi to take advantage of the deal.

  • +1

    I remember someone took advantage of this deal to get a heavily discounted iPad after cancelling.
    I assume it still works?

  • +1

    Thanks op.

    3x Aldi sims for $5 activated, ported to JB and cancelled.

    Minimum $900 for free, maximum $1200 or so if Telstra refund me for the first month on all 3 services.

    • Do they do a credit check?

      • +1

        I believe they do, I would also have some caution as I was threatened by a telstra chat person recently that they would report me to the store for having opened and cancelled too many times recently.

        I would have done it 5x this year.

        • I guess you'll find out when you go back for number 6.

          • @Daabido: Haha ill give them a break until next year

        • Do you have 6k of stuff to buy from JB or are you just selling the GCs for $?

    • So a new sim card at aldi is only around $1.60 each right now?
