No justification whatsoever David ... price gouging, plain and simple.

I've heard whispers similar things are now happening or are about to happen with ISP plans and also lots of streaming services like Foxtel and Kayo, so keep watch!

For me, it's effectively $540 per annum for a device I might use a couple of times a year [member=153]LP[/member]

There are alternatives.

Buy a phone (or use one you already own), and buy a pre-paid card. Costs you nothing, you just need to buy a new card once you've used it all up. If you don't make outgoing calls/texts etc, you might be able to keep a $25 card for the whole year.
I've just saved you $500 annualy. Wink

Aldi Mobile offers a $99 plan that gives you 365 days of free calls & SMS with 15 GB of data. But it might be affected by Telstra's price increases.
