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

    • PR0r on 24/12/2024 - 07:24

      Why risk it? It would probably be fine, but for the sake of $2 or cost of a new SIM, probably best not to

  • Miksta on 23/12/2024 - 14:23

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

      Yes

  • Platia on 23/12/2024 - 15:11

    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.

    Thanks in advance!

    • Bonbi on 23/12/2024 - 16:04

      You can use the gift card to purchase whatever you want

      • HolyCr4p on 23/12/2024 - 16:23

    • Jstrrrr on 25/12/2024 - 15:39

      Yes. In fact they often encourage you to spend it straight away on a new phone there and then. They will offer discounts on the phone if you do that - just be sure you've researched phone price discounts before you go in.

  • daydream1234 on 23/12/2024 - 16:34

    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.

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

    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.

    • 1centTomato on 23/12/2024 - 17:57

      Do they do a credit check?

      • mrfuku on 23/12/2024 - 18:29

        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.

          • mrfuku on 23/12/2024 - 20:30

            @nigel deborah: Wasn’t this exact deal, but was very similar ones for phones and iPads etc.

            Sold most of the stuff, GCs went to a friend to use.

        • BargainsGrabber on 23/12/2024 - 21:12

          Yup, I’m on the same boat. Will continue this in 2025 as I’ve cancelled too many plans already

    I'm in the market for an ipad so comparing it to this - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/848012

    Previous deal was a mobile broadband deal with $1000 off + $69/mo + $500 cancellation fee so $1000-$569 = $431 profit

    vs this one $1200 - $89 - $800 = $311 proft

  • poormansfriedchicken on 23/12/2024 - 22:06

    do we have to pay the $800 fee back upon deactivation? or is it over a period of time

    Apologies for asking this question again , but what’s the cheapest way to buy a new sim and port into this plan ? Do Amaysim $2 SIM’s work ?

    • KirKoloft on 24/12/2024 - 09:12

      You can't activate the Sim card without buying credit. Minimum Amaysim credit is $10.

    • shegeloaf on 26/12/2024 - 11:49

          try using the My Telstra app, as long as your signed in, use the chat from there and you'll get your refund 😉

        Return what phone??

    • Shahaniyasir on 24/12/2024 - 17:04

      Aren’t they are offering free phone on contract? Do you mean after cancelling the contract and paying by giftcard?

      • Jemz on 24/12/2024 - 17:10

        You just sign up to the plan by porting from somewhere else, like Aldi $5 prepaid. Once ported, the give you the physical $1200 gift card as well as the jb sim for the number you’ve bright over. You can use that gift card or multiple if porting multiple over to buy a phone, tv whatever.

  • gigolonatho on 24/12/2024 - 13:34

    I can’t seem to find $5 prepaid anywhere where I live - could I port to JB using my number, get the gift card, port back to my old provider and then cancel it without losing my number?

    • ffagz on 25/12/2024 - 09:16

      you can but its a risk of messing up if you use the phone for things like banking etc. safer to get a new sim

  • Edwog on 24/12/2024 - 14:21
    +3

    Used this today. My experience:

    Purchased $10 Coles prepaid SIM so I didn't have to worry about current phone number.

    Activated with new number, 5-10 mins.

    Went to JB, ported to Telstra. No issues. Bit awkward not knowing the phone number by heart haha.

    Used the $1200 gift card in-store for a sound system I'd been eyeing off. Seemed like there would be no issue in just taking the gift card though.

    Logged into Telstra App chat and have already cancelled service. Could NOT get a refund for the initial $89 charge despite asking. $766.59 to break contract.

    $1200 - ($766.59+$89) = $344 profit

    • druzyp on 24/12/2024 - 14:44
      +2

      Same as my experience, except I did it with 2x aldi $5 sims.

      Only charged 89$ on initial number via credit card, and the second number was signed up via bank account (hoping they dont take out another 89$ next month for this)

      Live chatted via telstra website but the prompts brought me to chat with a jb-hifi agent i suspect.
      Couldnt get the 89$ refunded.

      First number $766 repayment and second number 799 repayment.

      • poormansfriedchicken on 25/12/2024 - 11:26

        @druzyp did you buy the aldi sims instore or online?

        • druzyp on 25/12/2024 - 13:31
          +1

          In store. Bring sims with you when signing up at jb. They need to send a text to it to verify the number

    • Madfrega on 24/12/2024 - 16:40

      Isn’t the gift card put toward price of phone?

      • Edwog on 24/12/2024 - 18:55

        Gift card can go towards anything

    • Shahaniyasir on 24/12/2024 - 17:02

      I am sorry bit a silly question. After cancelling can we return the phone & use the credit to buy something else ?

      • ffagz on 24/12/2024 - 17:20

        Yes as long as it’s not open. The GC can be used on any item.

    • ffagz on 24/12/2024 - 17:22

      Did u call or use the app. With a phone call you may have had better luck but still a good days profit.

  • pingualien on 24/12/2024 - 14:29

    Anyone else having issues with porting in? Signed up in store and haven't been able to get my gift card because the port from Aldi hasn't gone through yet.

    • ffagz on 24/12/2024 - 17:19

      Sometimes there are delays as they jbhifi/telstra backend had to do the port over.

  • JAY13 on 24/12/2024 - 16:17

    if you sign up and port out to another company without cancelling , is there same $800 cancellation fee. Anyone wanna shed some light ?

    • Edwog on 24/12/2024 - 16:29
      +1

      Almost certainly. It is a breach of contract. I'd say that you'd receive the $800 on your final Telstra bill as an Early Termination Charge

    • ffagz on 24/12/2024 - 17:20

      When you port out it triggers a cancellation the same way as if you called the telstra or jbhifi team

    Bought 2x aldi sims but came in pretty late 30 mins before they closed, they said couldn’t do it as they needed more time. So I’m gonna try on Boxing Day hopefully they don’t change the terms from all these cancellations lol.

    Ok, so ported 2 x nos this evening and cancelled services half an hour after activation. Was able to get 2 × $89 refunded via Telstra chat. Total payment $1532 ( 2 x 766) for $2400 gift cards. Nice Xmas gift 😀

    • Jemz on 25/12/2024 - 09:54

      Did they refund it instantly? The person I spoke to said they’d personally work on the refunds then send me an email. They are sitting as pending in my account so maybe they have to wait.

      • go2force on 25/12/2024 - 12:15

        Yes, pending but they have requested a refund of those amounts as soon as those amounts are posted. The refund should be completed in 5-7 days

  • Jstrrrr on 25/12/2024 - 15:41

    All they need to do is update the terms to peg the early termination fee to the voucher value too. Literally a few words and the whole deal can be "fixed" from JB's perspective. Is it just a lack of care on JB's part or is this a deliberate deal for whatever reason….
