Key takeaways

  • ALDI Mobile is axing its $23 and $29 prepaid plans at the end of the month, but you can still sign up and stay on either plan if you do so by then.
  • It'll be introducing a new $28 5G plan with 32GB of data.
  • Prices are going up across its family plans and annual data-only plans by $5 to $35 per recharge at the end of the month as well.

ALDI Mobile's prepaid range is getting a shake-up.

From 30 September 2026, two of its current cheapest plans will disappear for new customers, while prices will rise across its family and data-only plans.

ALDI Mobile is scrapping its $23 and $29 plans

ALDI is ditching its $23 plan with 12GB of data on the 4G Telstra network, and the $29 5G plan with 29GB.

The good news is you can still sign up before then and keep either plan. Plus, ALDI is promising to lock in these prices until August 2027 in case you want that peace of mind.

It's also bringing in a new $28 5G plan with 32GB of data.

Separately, the $25 plan, which is currently only available to existing customers, is going too.

If you're on this plan with Auto Recharge switched on, you'll be moved across to the $28 plan automatically on your first recharge after 30 September.

If you don't have Auto Recharge on, you'll need to pick a new plan yourself.

Did you know?

It was only last year that ALDI axed its $19 plan with 10GB of data, as well as its $25 plan with 22GB. This is interesting because not only are ALDI's starting prices going up, but it's becoming increasingly common for telcos to either hike prices every year or quietly retire their cheaper plans altogether.

ALDI Mobile price rises on family and data-only plans

The rest of ALDI's range is also getting more expensive, although most plans are getting more data to go with the higher price.

As you can see in the table, the price increases range from $5 to $35, depending on the plan.

The family plans have a 30-day expiry, while the data-only plans last for a full year.
