Telstra has unveiled sweeping price rises for its mobile plans for the second time in 10 months, pushing the cost for some customers up by as much as 17 per cent over the past year.
Australia’s biggest telco revealed in a blog post on Tuesday morning that the price of its monthly postpaid basic plan, which comes with 50 gigabytes of data, would jump from $70 to $74. Its essential plan (with 180GB) would jump from $80 to $84, and its most-expensive premium plan (with 300GB) would stay the same at $99.
