Terms and conditions
Like with any good relationship, this sweet deal requires your commitment – here, that’s to the 24-month or 36-month plan you’ve selected. Should you decide to opt out of your plan early, you will be sacrificing any future discounts, and will need to pay off the remaining balance of your iPhone in full. Having said that, you’re free to transition between Telstra’s different plans without penalty at any time.
