ALDI is probably familiar to you as a place to pick up groceries, but they also sell mobile and pure data plans to customers. If you have a SIM-enabled device, you can just slot ALDI's SIM in and get online.
ALDI Mobile's broadband plans are not the sort of standalone plans you may be used to. Rather than purchasing a plan and getting a wireless modem to plug into your house, you purchase an ALDI mobile SIM for your SIM-capable tablet or device and activate it with a data plan.
Once the data plan is active, your device will have access to Telstra's 4G mobile networks. You will not be able to use it to make calls or send texts unless you've also purchased a regular mobile plan, too. If your device with the SIM can act as a hotspot, you'll be able to access this mobile broadband from other devices.
ALDI Mobile operates off the back of Telstra's 4G networks, which have the widest coverage in Australia. While their long expiry mobile broadband plans don't have good value in data per dollar terms, this is fairly standard for 365 day expiry. Still, there are other providers out there who might provide more data for less, so it's worth comparing.
Beyond that, ALDI does have the attractive feature of data rollover between recharges, though this is likely to be less useful on a year-long plan.
While they may be better known for their groceries than their gigabytes, here's what's good and bad about ALDI Mobile, here's what's good and bad about ALDI Mobile.
