The price is $849 for phone at Noel Leeming, which is same as 512GB version also on special, however the 2 Degrees promotion takes $200 off the 128GB version for new $40+ carryover plans.
I'm not sure if the word "New" means you have to be a new plan customer, and may exclude existing customers. However usually you can cancel the contract and pay the remaining balance instead of staying on contract.
its open term plans, so once you signup, call 2 degrees after leaving store and say you want to pay off in full, the T&C won't have any minimums but double check to make sure
Just relaying what I was told by the Noel Leeming sales rep on Sunday about that exact offer with the 200 credit. Better check with the store when signing up… Not entirely sure as I didn't get to see a copy of the terms and conditions.
Don't trust the sales rep from Noel Leeming about the contract that you sign up with 2 degrees. They pretty much have no idea about the actual details since they don't work for 2 degrees. If you want to make sure, you would have to call up 2 degrees to confirm the actual details. It was the same when I purchased the P30 a while back where the store rep said they have always told people that you must stick to the contract for at least 3 months before you are allowed to terminate. Called up 2 degrees and was told the open contract, I would be able to leave it any time.
They just sell the phones on behalf of 2 degrees. When you buy the phone on the contract, 2 degrees pay them the full price of the phone. The discount offer is basically between you and 2 degrees and have nothing to do with Noel Leeming.
@lNomNoml: Terminating your Freedom Term Plan
You can terminate your Plan at any time prior to your next Billing Date by calling Customer Care on 200.
You will be liable to pay all Charges outstanding in respect of your Plan on termination of that Plan.
Exactly none of the relevant T&C's have a minimum period. you can cancel as soon as you leave the store and pay the outstanding balance to 2 degrees
@Tomo: Yup. They told me the same when I purchased my P30. Called and cancelled the plan immediately and paid the phone off in full.
When you say to pay off in full - do you mean $649 or $849? Sorry planning to get one here and NL rep told me that I have to stick with the contract for at least 3 months and if I terminate beforehand need to pay off in full.
full means anything thats left after the deposit
I was about to buy myself one even though I have a Pixel 2XL, then I had a look at my bank account and decided against it.
Found this case and screen protector for anyone interested, I highly recommend the brand: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FN8NB6N/ref=ox_sc_act_t…
Also as mentioned by the OP if you spend $849 you can get the 512GB 8GB model: https://www.noelleeming.co.nz/shop/phones-and-gps/mobile-pho…
Just picked one up, paid $650 up front at Noel Leeming and called 2degrees to cancel before the billing cycle tomorrow.
The 2degrees rep who cancelled my connection said I might be charged $40 in the final invoice but wasn't 100% sure. No other fees from 2degrees as long as you pay the full $650 at Noel Leeming to buy the phone outright.
The 2degrees bill came in at $1.29, no issues with cancelling the plan
This is no longer on their website.
Asked in store for more information about the $200 credit on sunday, got told you need to sign up to the $40 open term for a minimum of 3 months for the $200 credit.
