Made a spreadsheet of mobile plan data so people could compare providers and plans easily. I plan to update it either yearly or every 6 months. This was inspired by this spreadsheet on all the NBN plan pricing information: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_wnaTFb_3QsdgZfKDrEO6D_Rpzt2clbB/edit?gid=1523306688#gid=1523306688

You may have missed aldimobile.com.auTelstra Network reseller.
Actually, that link looks like it is for “NBN RSP Pricing.xlsx” and Aldi doesn’t sell that, so…
… yeah, what beeng said:
Ya gotta link?The post itself on lemmy is this link:
https://codeberg.org/libre-net-au/isps
Assuming you’re coming from Mastodon, I would be curious to hear how it federates?
link is in the link field, not sure if that shows up on masto. The link in the desc is to the project this was inspired by. I also made a masto post here: https://en.osm.town/@eatham/113514886525749408
Web readable format and link would be good!
Also why source control a non trackable binary file spreadsheet?
I put it in a spreadsheet as it is a good way to display the information. If you know of a format which is like a spreadsheet and is web readable, please tell me. (And not “some software can display it on a website”, that can be done with most formats, including opendocument spreadsheets which I used here.)
The direct link is here: https://codeberg.org/libre-net-au/isps/raw/branch/main/mobile-plans.ods
You can try a markdown formatted table!
Works good in github readme, and here in Voyager/lemmy, not sure about codeberg.
ChatGPT would make quick work of creating it from your data, then just copy and paste. Should render in rich text mode like this
markdown table x y |markdown|table| |--|---| |x|y|Not hugely Scalable but is easily readable
Will work fine on Codeberg, but I can hardly use formulas in that. Those aren’t really suitable for somewhat large amounts of data, which is what I have.
CSV to .MD build job on merge to main?
Dunno.
All I know is I’m not downloading a file to open it each time for updates.
Spreadsheet(1)(2)(3)…(99)
It won’t be updated that frequently, and I don’t see why you would download it every update instead of occasionally when you are considering switching plans / getting a new plan

Outside of plans, there is also great value with Boost 12-month prepaid if you can plan for a big one-off payment per year. I originally chose it due to having better coverage than other providers (uses the full Telstra network) and low per month cost for primarily call/sms usage.
I’m currently on a $230 recharge for 12mo/160Gb, making this $19.20/month or $1.44/Gb. Due to change in avail plans, next recharge will be $300 for 12mo/240Gb (calculates to $25p/mo $1.25/Gb)
That’s good. I plan to add yearly and weekly plans next time I update the spreadsheet. Btw just so you know you can get plans much cheaper than 1.25/GB/month using the telstra network, but they will be monthly.
Thanks, I’ve had a look over your spreadsheet and see a lot of better choices for purely $/data.
I’m lucky to have wifi access most of the time so my primary concern was being frugal with an acceptable amount of data included.
I’m still salty about the Optus breach so I won’t use their network.
I do annual plans and look for what’s on sale. No loyalty. Currently using catch but whatever is cheapest around renewal.
Looks good :)
Do you account for some recharges being 30 days (Aldi) vs 28 days (Boost)?
I don’t think I did. Will fix that next time. If you could make an issue, that would be good. If not, still fine cos I’ll prolly check this post when I update it
Will have a go.
I dare say you’ll remember anyway. It makes a fair difference over a year.
:)
