*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.

                @Mattycee: Hey @Mattycee

                Can U confirm if there is any way for JB or Telstra to cancel gift cards when we cancel the service?

                There are comments below in this thread suggesting that!!

                It spooked me a little

                  @OzbHere: Hey,
                  I have never seen it happen, but I wouldn't guarantee it won't.
                  Maybe the safest bet is to wait until the phone is in hand.

      • codename47 on 01/02/2025 - 15:37

        Nah not getting any loans any time soon. I have not cancelled it yet anyway.
        The lady in the JBhifi Cranbourne store was pretty good. She said if you are likely to cancel the plan you will only be paying $800 as per the plan summary and if you have used a few months then it decreases

      It affects your credit rating ONLY for Telstra plans i.e. you MAY be refused new plans in next 3-6 months due to this / regular cancellations. Otherwise no impact.

      • ffagz on 01/02/2025 - 22:27

        Done 7 so far in last 3 months. Ordered the phone today. It was rejected 2 days ago but that was due to pending outstanding payment for the cancellation fees. Paid up and went through.

        • OZBsince2018 on 01/02/2025 - 22:50

          Thats why I said you MAY be refused new plan.

          Hey @fadzsolz

          Nice to know you having lots of success with cancelling and getting refunds on first month payments too

          Do U know if JB or Telstra can somehow cancel the GIFT cards when U cancel the plan?

          There are some comments below in this thread suggesting "Telstra Rep Said you have gift plan with your mobile, so once we cancel and refund that will be cancelled too!"

          Appreciate your insights mate

          • ffagz on 02/02/2025 - 13:06

            @OzbHere: No, the GC is unrelated. Logically you can spend the GC day 1. How do they recover?

            • Mr RS on 02/02/2025 - 21:59

              @ffagz: Gift card already used and paid against phone so doubt it

          • ffagz on 02/02/2025 - 18:34

            @OzbHere: Just cancelled now, got 99$ refund - took 3-4 tries.
            For charges, they will spell out exactly what will be charged - 766 or someting thats it. Because your GC was already used for a purchase.

  • Duece1995 on 01/02/2025 - 16:58

    Successfully cancelled my plan today. $766 due and agent said he would refund the $99 once payment has cleared. Captured a screen shot and reference ID.

    If anyone is wondering if previous cancellations have any impact, I signed up twice during the launch of Pixel 9 Pro and cancelled immediately. Went today and signed up for this one and now going to cancel.

    Also, sould I cancel through Telstra chat or JB hi-fi chat to increase my chances of getting the $99 refunded?

  • mystershopper23 on 01/02/2025 - 21:25

    What's the official release date? 7th Feb or 14th Feb? and anybody know if we might get the devices earlier than 14th Feb?

    • OZBsince2018 on 01/02/2025 - 22:51

    • yummypinacolada on 02/02/2025 - 02:45

      Technically you can't as you need to be away from Telstra network for 30 days, but you just need to find a staff who doesn't check your history.

  • MonkeyMagic3 on 02/02/2025 - 05:28

    Do you need an existing number or port over or can you sign up a new number on your existing account? Then cancel your old existing plan, but keep/transfer the old number to new plan?

    And also just confirming, if you have the Samsung $200 pre order voucher this will work at JB?

    • ffagz on 02/02/2025 - 08:49

      If you port they get you $1700 if new it’s z&1600

  • Ritcus1 on 02/02/2025 - 07:52

    In 2022, I got same type of plan 1200 voucher for 89 plan, when I tried to cancel the plan from Telstra, they said use the app where it used to show an early termination charge : 700 something and voucher repayment: some amount if I add up those two it will be just 100 or 200 less than what I will be paying in 24 months plan. I end up going for whole 24 months.

    Not sure how come people are only paying termination charge and no voucher charge.

      • Ritcus1 on 02/02/2025 - 08:24

        So we now don't have to pay the early termination charges for the plan right ?

        • mikey43 on 02/02/2025 - 10:24

          The ETCs are the voucher repayment.

      How many reps did you try first? From what ive hward before, they arent meant to price match Costco because you need membership to buy.

      • Tankum8 on 02/02/2025 - 13:25

        I bought my first device on 24th and the rep said I can either do a price match or use the coupon but not both so I used a coupon but for second device I went to couple of other JB stores. The first one repeated the same story but the girl at second JB store looked to a little too keen to make the sale but repeated the same story that her manager is refusing to price match Costco so I lied to her that I'll go to other JB store where my fried was able to combine the deal and then immediately both manager and she agreed to combine deal.

    I just canceled the plan. They charged $766.57 for early termination fee and I got $99 refunded at Telstra app.
    I am worrying about this.
    The agent in Telstra said " As you have a device on a repayment option gift card, this will also be cancelled."
    Does this mean $1700 jb giftcard is cancelled?

    • OzbHere on 02/02/2025 - 11:56

      How?

      • easternculture on 02/02/2025 - 12:37

      People make it harder than it has to be, not reading the OP, asking the same questions out of laziness and not reading the existing comments.

      • CodeXD on 03/02/2025 - 12:14

        When was there a $300 GC?

        • G-rig on 03/02/2025 - 20:12

          S24U and pixel 9 Pro XL/9 promos in September, look it up.

          • easternculture on 03/02/2025 - 21:10

            @G-rig: Nah its a bit different. No $300 GC offered due to double storage offer which is worth $200 rrp and then $200 jb voucher for those who pre-registered so technically $400 off rrp of s23U 512gb which i think is great

            • G-rig on 03/02/2025 - 21:12

                Getting $300 GC means paying $2337 with no $200 preorder voucher and then $1700 off which sets you back $637 plus ETC and you get the $300 GC

    I was dead set on getting S25Ultra for $237 extra I can get a better camera, however I was lucky JB rep I met said I can stack $200 pre-reg code with S25 or S25+ as well. I was told initially that I couldn't get it as gift card and I need to spend it along with paying the phone, but I only need a case and screen protector, I would still have ~$130 which I don't know what to spend on. In the end, I got the remaining credit as gift card.

    If you can find JB rep who are able to do this, it makes regular S25 the best value amongst the three with $550 ETC plus bonus $200 credit/gift card. I picked S25plus because the size and the weight of the phone is just perfect for me also I couldn't justify $437 difference for the ultra.

      • yummypinacolada on 02/02/2025 - 17:16

        I have the pre-registration which I thought can only be used for S25U to be stacked with telco deal, but if I can used it for S25+ then the difference will be $437.

          • yummypinacolada on 02/02/2025 - 17:18

            @G-rig: Yeah, all S25 variants have free storage upgrade to 512gb during pre-order

      • yummypinacolada on 02/02/2025 - 17:22

        Also in regards to pixel, even though the camera is great, but as a whole phone is not. The software is often buggy, often experience overheating, and their chipset is not flagship level. I don't have the latest Pixel 9 pro but I've already given up on Pixel unless there's a major changes with the phone hardware.

      You're mixing up a lot of things here. If you read through this thread, you would have found your answer already.

      If you want your current number to have this plan, you need to port out to another provider (like Aldi) and then come back to JB. There's a caveat that JB might enforce a 30-day waiting period before you can port back in, but most JB staff are ignoring this and allowing people to sign up. This way, you can get the plan on your current number.

      Additionally, if you haven't completed the term duration of your current plan, you may incur an early termination fee. You'll need to check this yourself

        • TheSANegotiator22 on 03/02/2025 - 14:38

          Mine was a new numher, throwaway aldi SIM. So you got charged already? I signed up thrn about 3 hours later cancelled and they didnt mention any access or monthly fees just id get an $800 invoice whoch indod about an hour later.

          You could say that you havent used the sim so essentially it isnt acrivated and you ca t charge me a whole months access , barely even proratad amount given no usage, you could even mention TIO but you shouldn't need to go to that extent.

          Side note, im worried the whole order will now cancel with JB and i wont get a phone handset haha
