On the s25 ultra page scroll down and shows $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.

Use the Samsung Galaxy Pre-Order Code Request megathread if you're after the $200 discount code. No requests in comments please

      If you are currently on Telstra, you need to be off the network for 30 days before porting back in.
      It shows in the system when the number was ported out.

      • EssendonUser on 23/01/2025 - 10:12

        Thanks for the reply. It is not direct telstra, but goodguys mobile without any telstra plus, similar to jbmobile or Aldi which runs on telstra network..Would that 30 days be still applicable?

  • mrone on 23/01/2025 - 09:34

    When would you plan to cancel this? Before you receive the phone? Or wait until you receive the phone and then cancel as soon as you physically receive it?

    • bibimbap on 23/01/2025 - 09:42

      Cancel the plan as soon as you ported or walk out of JB store.
      If you wait until u get the phone then u will pay $99 first month

    If you sign up today, will service be activated today and phone will come later? I think phones will arrive in Feb, so first month's payment may not get refunded

    JB updated the repayment fee after the cancellation; I guess it's not a very good deal.

    $237 + $99 + $1,629-ish

        • EBC on 23/01/2025 - 10:40
          +2

          This has been the same set of T&Cs + CIS for years. In previous deals it was overridden by the "Maximum voucher repayment fee" in the CIS.

          This part of the T&Cs defines how the voucher repayment fee is calculated, but it doesn't alter how the "Maximum voucher repayment fee" is calculated. So if the voucher is $800 or more, it has met/exceeded the maximum and is therefore capped at $800. Then that $800 is used as the "Voucher repayment fee" to do the calculations for the section of the T&Cs you have posted.

          As far as I can tell it has been working this way for several years. Granted it is very confusing but I haven't seen a single instance where it hasn't worked this way in any of the previous deals.

          For the record I did this last year for the Pixel 9 Pro XL with no issues.

  • P1nk on 23/01/2025 - 10:10

    Does the $1100 voucher for signing up to the $99 plan stack with the $1700 off the phone or does the $1700 replace that? EDIT: im dumb, no it doesnt stack and its clear in the T&C

      • krisspy on 23/01/2025 - 11:43

        Plus the $767 termination fee

        • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 11:46

          That's not an upfront out of pocket cost.
          Usually have 10 days or so until it's direct debit from telstra but yean.

          • krisspy on 23/01/2025 - 11:59

            @G-rig: He said if he cancelled straight away…

            If they don't activate the sim until Feb 15 then he skips the first month $99 but the termination will be full $800.

            If they activate it asap then he pays $767 on termination and $99 for first month which can be refunded by telstra.

            • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 12:04

              @krisspy: Well he won't be signing up instore if they aren't out until 15 Feb and for the 99/plan you have to do it instore.

              I did it last time - don't worry, it gets debited later, not an out of pocket expense initially.

              Yes i said it's direct debited 10 days later or so by Telstra once you cancel (on the chat). They wouldn't charge it instore upfront.
              I got the S24U the same way.

              • OZBsince2018 on 23/01/2025 - 12:40

                @G-rig: $99 first month fee + $437 if no voucher + cancellation fee of $767 billed later.

                Some were not charged $99 first month fee upfront, and were able to save that too but hit and miss.

                • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 12:46

                  @OZBsince2018: That's what I've been saying. I did the exact same deal with S24U except got a $300 GC as well.
                  I also got refunded the $99 first month charge as I didn't use the sim card at all.

                  Anyway it's not that great a deal and no hardware upgrades so will wait for the S26U.

          Why dont you just raise your hand when you are in feame

  • mrone on 23/01/2025 - 10:59

    So if you cancel, the total you pay is $1700 voucher + $437 cost (without code) + $99 monthly fee (if not waived)? $2136 total payment?

    • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 11:02

      No it would be $766 like last time but maybe have to cop the first month's $99 (last time i got it refunded as didn't use the sim.

  • fgfash on 23/01/2025 - 11:12

    So we have to pay $1700 for cancellation?

  • Koipanda on 23/01/2025 - 11:13
    +17

    So $1,700 replaces the dollar value of the Voucher ($800) in the Critical Information Summary, but it does not replace the Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee ($800).

    If you cancel, you must pay back the pro-rata amount of the Voucher ($1,700) for any remaining period (24 months). However, this is capped at $800.

    So if I wanted to get the S25 Ultra 1tb for $2537.00, the following would apply:
    $2537 - $1,700 - $200 + $800 + $99 = $1,536.

    512 GB: $2,137 - $1,700 - $200 + $800 + $99 = $1,136

    • double_J on 23/01/2025 - 11:15

      Thank you for making it super clear!

    • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 11:19

      Hmm. The $800 is 24 months you may get the $99 back, used to be 800/23 months = $766.

      Could still be a good changeover but would have been best to get the $200 voucher.
      Not sure i'd even call this an upgrade to be honest, not sure if i'll bother but prefer the form factor without the sharp corners - almost the same as an iphone lol.

        I didn’t. Admin did :/. I’m just going to leave this as it is let ppl do their own research. But in my opinion @Koipanda is correct it’s just a $800 voucher repayment fee. But you could wait and see other ppl response in coming days how it went with their signup.

      • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 12:01

        @Butt Scratcher I'm not sure why it is crossed out - maybe doesn't want to be held liable and YMMV, or it's encouraging cancelling the mobile contract. This deal relies on the hack of $800 not $1700 otherwise it's pointless and a lot of work. Also there is no $300 GC like last time.

        @DingoBilly agreed mate. Will have to look at the other thread and Samsung direct deals coming up. Wouldn't you need an EDU email?

        It's a shame the 'pre-registration' promo is over but the phone is still a pre-order and not out till 15 Feb. Kind of all pointless.

      No that is not correct. I agree this is written deliberately vague to cause confusion and customers are likely to be caught out by these ambiguous terms.

      In my opinion, if the $1700 replaces the dollar value of the voucher ($800) in the Critical Information Summary, then it is only logical to consider the $1700 must also apply to the Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee as well which is the same amount ($800). Otherwise this whole exercise of ''replacing the dollar value of the voucher in the CIS' is absolutely pointless.

        Nope you're incorrect. If it's not stated, then it's not applicable. The T&C clearly refers to "Voucher" and not "Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee". A drafting mistake? Thats on JBHIFI, not the consumer.

    The T&C's says the offer (pre-order code) cannot be used in conjunction with other mobile deals (this one).

    • Bonesaw321 on 23/01/2025 - 12:36

      You can use the code with this. The code has nothing to do with JBHifi mobile or trade in offers as shown in that image. It’s a separate code JBHifi sent to people specifically for preordering s25 range.

      • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 13:19

        yes the rep got it wrong but said the codes being sent out today.
        A lot of the staff don't know what's going on with some of these deals.

        Should have just got the P9XL or Pro, but will probably hold onto the S24U for longer since it's not really an upgrade (just cosmetic changes).

      i did mine today (not planning on cancelling though). they did charge the first $99 today (plus the balance on the phone). so getting the $99 refunded might be a pain. I was directly handed the SIM also and they strongly encouraged me to put it in my phone while instore.
      Given as above the cancellation doesnt seem worth it if you are up for the $1700 i think its a moot point anyway though, deal is good if you are happy with the plan, not if you dont want it

      • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 13:58

        So do they have the 512GB in store already from today then?
        Doesn't seem like an upgrade to me from S24U but prefer the rounded corners.

        No $300 GC this time (or $200 preorder for me) but just weighing it up.
        Need to change sim cards anyway tomorrow.

        • perfectlydark on 23/01/2025 - 14:01

          nah its preordered, they will have it on release in Feb. with the SIM as my old service was cancelled they asked me to put it in my phone to 'verify' everything is ok so no hassles later. coming from an s22 its an upgrade for me, and needed due to my cracked screen

              @G-rig: yeah, in hindsight theres no downside by waiting until day before release and doing the same thing.(risk of no stock? but probably not worth worrying about). If you dont want the plan I wouldnt bother, theres better ways to get the phone, i wouldnt trust this whole cancel/$800 thing

                It's still a shit deal and higher RRP than the old pixel days where you get trade in bonuses, GC, this and that, and then costs $200 to upgrade. This relies on the hack.

                Everyone just ends up asking the same shit on every page instead of reading it all and all the other past deals the same.

    If my maths is right, the total price of phone comes up at $1037 assuming you cancel the phone plan and pay $800 charges to Telstra. How is this better deal than the one provided on Samsung portal for 512GB which comes down to same value (or lower if you use Edu/Gov portal)?

    • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 12:17

      Just do that then? Sounds easier.

      Any benefit in trading in - haven't looked into it but assume you need an edu email?

      • Gurjot95 on 23/01/2025 - 12:26

        You can do trade in on regular website. Edu portal just have already discounted phone but yes you need edu email for it which I am also searching for!

        • G-rig on 23/01/2025 - 12:31

          yes mobile monster $950 seems like the best.

          Just saying these preorder deals aren't what they used to be
          - no $300 GC
          - no trade-in bonus etc.
          - RRP up usually (but $1700 off is good, only as it is a $900 hack.

        Sorry, this includes the prices after applying all the vouchers.

        $400 trade in,
        $200 free accessories,
        5% app discount.

        After that it comes to about ~$1377 for S25U 512 GB (not including the trade in phone value). I quoted the original price after factoring trade in phone value.

        • nfr on 23/01/2025 - 13:40

    So I'm currently on a JB phone plan that's out of contract from a previous deal.. Do they have deals for existing customers? If not then if I port out and port in how long do I have to wait?

      This deal makes sense only if you cancel. So if you have to cancel, you can simply get a new number when you sign up for this deal and cancel it later.

        This deal is port in only so you'll need to get a new number elsewhere (and obviously don't get a new telstra number lol)

        • OZBsince2018 on 23/01/2025 - 12:35

          No. Port IN or new customers. I signed up as a new customer and got a new number.

            @OZBsince2018:

            when you switch your number instore to JB HI-FI Mobile

            But yes, it's usually port in or new service (last time i got a new service as i wasn't going to use the sim at all).

      Don’t tell her the open hand trick

  • ChipsChicky on 23/01/2025 - 12:54

    If you cancel how much is the final total we are paying for S25 Ultra?

    • Jamie007 on 23/01/2025 - 13:06

      The cancellation is $800 or $400 after 12 months. So total cost would be $1037.

      • ChipsChicky on 23/01/2025 - 13:21

        Are you sure about $800, as there are other comments mentioning that cancellation of voucher is Pro-rata based i.e. if I cancel in first month, I will have to return $1700 of voucher?

        $200 voucher is Galaxy2025 that JB accepted and reduced price by $200 or is it some JB's own voucher?

  • Mike911 on 23/01/2025 - 13:03

    Anyone tried to get port in credit from Telstra yet?

  • Jamie007 on 23/01/2025 - 13:05

    Just ordered it. Can confirm the $200 voucher works, but be sure to tell them before they start processing it, there was a big (profanity) and they had to refund my order and start over because apparently it has to go through before they take the $1700 off.

    • mikey43 on 23/01/2025 - 13:06

      Perfect.

      So 237 out of pocket today?
