JB Hi-Fi Mobile Upfront Plan support

We're moving you to JB Hi-Fi Mobile Upfront Plans

Moving to a JB Hi-Fi Mobile Upfront Plan means that:
  • your new plan may have a different price or inclusions
  • the way you pay will change.
We've sent you an email or letter with more information about changes to your plan price, data inclusions and any discounts. Learn more about your Upfront Plans and payments.

What's happening?

After careful consideration, we're moving all your services to a new system. To simplify our services, we’re moving you to Upfront Plans on our new system. Your JB Hi-Fi Mobile Upfront Plan will have a different price and plan inclusions and exclusions to your current plan.

I'm in a contract. What does this mean for me?

If you're still within your contract period on your current plan, you can cancel without incurring an early termination or voucher cancellation fee. Our Upfront Plans are not in a contract, so once you move, you can change once a month or cancel your plan whenever you like.

Upfront Plan inclusions

There are changes to the way you pay

Your new payment method: AutoPay

You’re currently using direct debit to pay for your plans, so you’ll now pay via AutoPay. AutoPay is a form of direct debit that allows you to pay upfront for your services each month.

You’ll no longer receive a bill

Each month on your payment date, we’ll automatically charge the monthly cost of your services to your selected payment method—either a bank account or a credit/debit card. This payment will cover you for the month ahead.

If you have Telstra One Number (TON), it will be carried over to your new plan.

How does AutoPay work?

  1. You'll get a reminder

  2. Paying upfront

  3. We'll send you an AutoPay receipt

  4. Separate payments for entertainment

Here are some important things to remember:

New payment date

If you already use AutoPay for your JB Hi-Fi Mobile services, we'll keep using the same payment date. If you're new to AutoPay for your JB Hi-Fi Mobile services, your payment date will be changed as part of your update. Going ahead, this will be the date you'll be charged for your JB Hi-Fi Mobile upfront plans and services.

Please refer to your email or letter for the exact payment date for your JB Hi-Fi Mobile Upfront Plans.

Multiple payments in the first month

During the switch, you'll make multiple payments in the first month. Rest assured - this will only happen once and these payments are for different billing periods:

  • A payment to finalise your old plan for the billing period that has just passed.
  • Your first AutoPay payment on the new upfront plan for the month ahead.

We’re here to support you during this change

If you believe that this change may cause financial stress, you can request a payment extension after you move to an Upfront Plan.

This means you'll no longer earn points when paying for your new JB Hi-Fi Mobile Upfront Plan. You can redeem your current Telstra Plus points until 31 January 2026. After this date, you’ll need an eligible Telstra service to redeem any remaining points that stay on your account until their expiry date.

The pricing and inclusions across the JB Hi-Fi and The Good Guys branded plans are aligned as they are both part of the JB Hi-Fi Group.

Payments and billing

The AutoPay payment will be made on the same day every month. If the payment fails, you'll get an email and SMS asking you to pay manually in the JB Hi-Fi Mobile app.

JB Hi-Fi Mobile doesn’t accept BPAY as a payment method for upfront plans. Your payment will not be processed if you use BPAY to pay for your upfront plans and services.

If you have any remaining payments or refunds:

  • you'll receive a refund cheque at your address in approximately four weeks on any applicable credits or refunds for more than $4.99 and up to $250.
  • you'll need to contact us if your applicable credit or refund is less than $4.99 or more than $250.
  • you'll need to pay any remaining roaming charges

You'll need to cancel your automatic recurring payments/direct debit set up.

Currently, you can only make full payments through direct debit on your nominated AutoPay payment date.

We're working on future options that will provide greater payment flexibility.

Yes, if you need to extend the next payment date for an upfront plan or service, sign into the JB Hi-Fi Mobile app and go to Payments. Choose your service to manage payments or request an extension.
