[Pre Order] Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 512GB $437 ($237 With Code) on JB 24M $99/M Plan (in-Store, Port-in Customer) @ JB Hi-Fi

2360

*For those that are seeking a $200 code there are some in the chat that have had success by asking the JBHIFI live chat and tell them that you lost the $200 code in your email, there are some that have received the $200 code a day later in their email as it seems they’ve added them in to send a code.

$1700 off the new s25 Ultra with the $99 p/m jbmobile plan if you port in.

$237 is only if you use the $200 samsung signup promo code otherwise it’s $437. As this is a mobile plan you go in store to signup, show them the $200 preorder code they should give you the further discount.

Plan : $237 ($437 without code) + $99 p/m over 24 months.

If you cancel: $237 + $800 + $99 =$1,136 ($1037 if you can get first months charge refunded)., you will need to pay the voucher repayment fee as stated in terms

Voucher Repayment Fee

6.2 If you received a JB Hi-Fi Voucher when you purchased your Mobile Service and you cancel
that Mobile Service within any applicable Voucher Term, you must pay us the outstanding
amounts for the JB Hi-Fi Voucher you received for the cancelled Mobile Service (the Voucher
Repayment Fee).

6.3 The Voucher Repayment Fee is a pro-rata amount, equal to the total amount of the base
Voucher divided by 24 and multiplied by the months (or part months) remaining in your
Voucher Term.

Max cancellation fee is $800. The $99 first months charge In past deals I’ve usually got this refunded though if you’re really nice, but be aware in case if you are unable to get the $99 refunded. T&C: https://www.telstra.com.au/help/critical-information-summari…

Also keep in mind this deal is for porting in your number, so if you’re planning to cancel you could get a $5 Aldi sim and port in with that.

    Wtf is a voucher repayment fee? Do you now have to pay back the gift card amount if u cancel? Plus 800 contract termination fee?

  • It was expected to collect phone from 4th Feb in JB. But now email received that collection starts from 14th Feb.

    • +1

      Call jb. Mines in store, they said ill get a message tomorrow.

    • Yes I suspect that was an automated email. The website says from the 4th (Today) so could be sooner.

  • +2

    Ordered 30mins before Melbourne Central closed. After the transaction was done, the girl said see you from 9am tomorrow for pickup.

    • +7

      Perhaps she was impressed by your credit score and was referring to pick her up at 9am for a date ;)

      • +5

        I can advise both the girl, and the phone both weren't there at 9am this morning 😭

  • -4

    Is this deal still available ? Was looking for the ultra , what do you get for the $99 a month anyway? Can I still preorder? Or has it finished ?

      • Even that comment got to me too G-rig haha

    For those who are asking how did I get the $200 coupon yesterday:
    I contacted JBHIFI Chat couple of days ago and they said sorry they don't send them. I told them I had in my email and I cannot find it anymore. So they sent an email telling me that they could not find my email in the list.
    2 days later they sent the code to my email.
    You can try your luck ! All the best.

    1. Should I go in to store (is it easier)
    2. Can I cancel it in store straight away or do I have to do it online
    3. If I get a new aldi mobile plan can they sort that out completely in store
      Thanks :)
    • posting the same questions 3 times isn't going to get you the answer any quicker

      • Sorry I didnt mean to my networkings a bit bugged and it disconnected a few times and it wasnt showing up as posted on my end

          1. Yes, you can only do it in store
          2. Cancel online with chat on telstra app
          3. Get new aldi sim, activate it before you go into jb, make sure you can receive sms before talking to them to port in
      • Why would I post it 3 times knowingly what exactly does it achieve me why are you being Unnecessarily aggressive for something that was an accident that I Wasn’t even aware of doing

        • Dunno just seemed like you weren't happy with the first lack of response. You can always unpublished the double and triple posts :).

          Just seems like everyone comes along wanting to be spoon fed and not willing to read the post, visit the JB website and read it, or go back a page or two. Same questions over and over. The original post could be updated but not sure you're allowed to condone this hack explicitly.

          Anyway for that reason, I'm out :).

          • @G-rig: People not trying to read anything but try fcking hard to get $99 back. Just ignore them.

            • @Dumpshid: Still a good deal. yeah done and sorted.

              • @G-rig: Yes, it is a good deal. Even thinking to sign another contract but not sure which one to get S25 or S25 ultra.

          • @G-rig: I did unpublish the first 2 (didn't know you could do that) and I did read JB's website and every single comment I was just hoping for confirmation from people who it's worked from before I spent that much money

            • @Dolphins: No worries, will be easier next time once you've done it once too (assume they don't close the loophole, so at least get one this time).

  • Can u just port out from another provider so you don't have to cancel with telstra?

    • +2

      You can, but they'll still charge you cancellation fee (~$766). If you call to cancel, you can also ask to refund the $99 you paid in store.

  • +2

    Just got a message that the phone is ready for collection

    • Same here

      • Did you receive an email as well?

        • No, only sms now. Email was received on the preorder day

          • @EssendonUser: Something like this - Hi <name>, order <xxx> is now ready for collection at JB Hi-Fi! Please bring your receipt and photo ID with you when you come in to collect.

    • Did you get SMS on the number you port in?

      • +1

        No on the number I left for the order

  • +5
    • Sweet just got a message too.

    • Please take a photo of phone =]

        • +1

          LFG!

          First confirmed S25 on ozb

        • What colour you get? :D

          • @Rakddon: Black. Always had a higher resell value with black handsets

            • @easternculture: I usually get black or grey but got the hero colour (titanium blue).

              This time all the others are very similar and makes little difference with a case on.

              Can't really change mind on pickup yeah?

              Talking about resale monster mobile only offering $600 now for S24U 256GB 👎. eBay could be worthwhile for $1200 even if have to pay fees.

              • +1

                @G-rig: Nah you cannot if you used the $200 voucher cause they will have to refund and repurchace if you change colour

                • @easternculture: All good, was hard to decide but went with something different. Should be ok, only looks blue in some light but that and black will be the most popular I think

    • While you’re there can you check if they will take it back for a refund/gC credit?

      • Already at home. But when i returned my s24U last deal 6 months ago, i got the $1700 refunded on a gift card which im keeping unti we need a new fridge and washing machine

        • +1

          That’s what I’m planing to do. Good to know it can work!

        • So if I return s25 ultra, will they issue a $1,700 gift card and $237 back to my card or gift card, depending on the payment method? What happens to the $200 voucher—will that be forfeited? I already ordered mine through Samsung Direct, but this one through JB is for my mom. Recently, I've been feeling that the S25 Plus model would be a better size for her. I'm considering returning and swapping it for the S25 Plus.

          • @EssendonUser: Correct $1700GC, remaining original payment

            • @easternculture: Good to know. So you only forfeit the $200 voucher? Could be a good option if I don't need top grade the phone again next year.

            • @easternculture: Picked up the phone, spoke to the rep about returning / he said if it’s part of telco we can’t. I don’t see how they could know though as the invoice just shows GC no mention of teleco.
              Keen to hear more.

              • @ffagz: Nothing to do with telco.
                Just say you had a change of heart and need something with higher gb capacity

                • @easternculture: Cool will try in a few days I guess we have 30 days to refund

                • @easternculture: I just tried aswell 2 different stores they wouldn’t refund

                  • @FrugalSquid: That's milking the deal to the absolute extreme haha. guess you'll have to make up your mind and keep it.

  • Has anyone called their local store to check if they come in and collect or do you just have to wait for the text?

    • I did and they said there are people ordered before you so you will get text once it's your turn :(

      • Can confirm this. The girl that served me told me they will only release it if you got a text

        • To confirm you got a text on your main number and not the number you ported in?

  • I got an email from JB saying my phone will be ready to collect on the 14.02? Not sure if this is correct or just an auto response.

    • +5

      Same but shortly after i got the sms to pickup today

    • Same. All good can wait a few days.

  • Which JB have people picked it up from?

  • -5

    So i ended up with 2 invoices with different numbers.
    No IMEI on them.

    When i claim TRS, do they physically have to see both phones or can i show them an empty box for second one (invoice).
    Also do they record the imei number/serial on system.
    Cheers

    • Mate not trying to scared you but I would look this first.!

      https://www.ato.gov.au/about-ato/tax-avoidance/the-fight-aga…

      • -3

        Yeah probably not worth it.
        Just gonna act dumb and submit both invoices for the one phone. If they give me 2 refunds , ill just act dumb.

        • Just dont act shifty and get called in for screening. Like they do on Border Secruity - though they looking mostly for food…. :) If you have a duty free allowance then you should be good to go.

    • It all depends on who is checking. Sometimes they don't check and just approved the TRS claim straight away, sometimes they will check the phone and match it with your invoice.

      No, they don't record the imei number on the system

    • +1

      Need phone in box for TRS?

    • Do it please, i want to see you go to jail for tax invasion. Please please do it.

      • -2

        They would only give you a warning. People are doing much worse by scamming ATO hundreds of thousands in GST , doubt they would care for $172

        • That is only assuming you are bringing back in over your allowed duty. when travelling with family, the limit goes over so your mileage may vary.

      • People killing other people roam without any guilts and you expect people doing $1k fraud in jail ?

        • Only oneway to find out. Let me know the result.

          • -2

            @Dumpshid: Processing me for jail will cost them more than $172 & tens of hours of non productive time that would cost them average $100/hr plus all logistical costs. Im sure they have better things to do @TRS office like getting their meal/coffee breaks on time than hours of paperwork and phone calls

            • @easternculture: Wanna try? Their expenses are not their money, it is from you TAX so why do they care how much is gonna cost them. Try it and let me know the result.

              • -1

                @Dumpshid: They are aware of people who frauded the tax office hundreds of thousands of dollars and they haven't done anything about it.

                You are very delusional

                Worst case scenario is a warning letter from ATO and probabaly get audited for next few years.

                No magistrate would stupidly sentence someone to jail for $172.

                Their expenses are not their money, it is from you TAX so why do they care how much is gonna cost them

                Because all government departments are run on budgets. They are not going to spend $10k to charge someone because of $172

      • What is tax invasion. Is it when Tax invades you?

    • +1

      I did TRS on a Samsung tablet recently, they just looked at the receipt and just asked if I had the tablet with me, didn't ask to see it.

      • How long after a purchase can you do TRS? I'm travelling overseas in the end of March.

      • Carrying just the phone is fine I guess. Box not needed to show?

        • +1

          yes no need for the box. They inspect if you have the phone physically on you (cant put it in checked baggage).

    • +1

      Don’t know. They will ask to see the item. Depends on the agent they may see in detail or just cursory look at it.
