Telstra Network Mobile Plans From $20 to $30

In our database, we're comparing 25 mobile plans priced between $20 and $30 a month from 13 providers that all run on the Telstra network -- Telstra itself plus MVNOs and resellers like Boost Mobile, Pennytel, TeleChoice, Tangerine Telecom, ALDI mobile and more. This list is limited to plans billed per 28 days, per 30 days or per month, so every price below is directly comparable. As on our other plan pages, we've ranked the table by regular (ongoing) price rather than the advertised "now" price, so you can see what you'll actually keep paying. 16 of the 25 plans are already priced at their regular rate with no promo involved; the other 9 revert to a higher price later, in some cases nearly triple. A handful of those also come with a temporary "double data" bonus that expires on its own separate schedule -- we've called those out individually below rather than counting the bonus data as part of the plan's long-term value.

Every plan on this page runs on the Telstra network. Coverage is generally the widest of any network in Australia, but it still varies by suburb and region -- check the Telstra mobile coverage map before you commit to a plan.

Why regular price? A plan's advertised "now" price can be a limited-time discount that reverts higher later. We rank this table by the regular price you'll be paying once any promo ends, with the current discounted price shown alongside it where one applies. 9 of the 25 plans here carry a promo, up to $50 off the regular rate.
Watch for "double data" plans: A few plans in this list -- three from Tangerine Telecom and two from More Telecom -- bundle a temporary data boost on top of their price promo, and the two run on different clocks. Tangerine's 100GB 5G Mobile SIM, for example, is $24/month for the first 4 months (then $48), but the bonus data that takes it to 200GB only lasts 6 months before dropping back to its base 100GB. We've ranked cost per GB against each plan's long-term (base) data allowance rather than the temporary boosted figure, since the boost won't be there once you're paying the regular price anyway.
Best long-term value in this tier: Tangerine Telecom's 100GB 5G Mobile SIM works out to $0.48/GB on its regular $48/month price and base 100GB allowance -- narrowly the best cost-per-GB on the page, even after setting aside its temporary data boost and intro discount. If you'd rather avoid promos altogether, Everyday Mobile's $30 Prepaid Plan and Mate's Good Mates SIM Only Mobile Plan are tied at $0.50/GB (60GB each, unlimited talk & text) with no promo involved at all.

Sorted by regular/ongoing price, lowest first; ties broken by cost per GB on that regular price (using each plan's long-term data allowance, not any temporary data boost), best value first. Highlighted rows are already priced at their regular rate -- no promo involved. Rows showing a "Now" price include a limited-time discount that reverts to the regular price shown; a few also note a bonus data allowance that expires separately.

Data-only plans
2 plans in our database: Belong's 20GB Mobile Broadband and TeleChoice's 30GB Data Only, tied at $20.00 and $30.00/month respectively.
Both work out to $1.00/GB -- there's no data-only option below that on this page anymore, since Cmobile's data-only plans (previously the best value in this category) have dropped out of this price tier.
Talk & text plans (unlimited)
23 plans in our database -- the vast majority -- with regular prices from $23.00 (ALDI mobile, TeleChoice) up to $80.00 (Tangerine Telecom, promo).
Best value: Tangerine Telecom's 100GB 5G Mobile SIM at $0.48/GB on a long-term basis -- the best cost/GB on the page. Among plans with no promo at all, Everyday Mobile's $30 Prepaid Plan and Mate's Good Mates SIM Only Mobile Plan are tied at $0.50/GB.
What's the cheapest Telstra network plan in this $20-$30 range?
In our database, Belong's 20GB Mobile Broadband is cheapest at $20.00/month, though it's data-only. For talk & text included, ALDI mobile's $23 Prepaid Mobile Plan and TeleChoice's Basic SIM Only Plan are tied cheapest at $23.00/month.
Which plan is the best value per GB?
In our database, Tangerine Telecom's 100GB 5G Mobile SIM is the best long-term value at $0.48/GB, based on its regular $48/month price and 100GB base allowance -- it currently runs a promo with double data for the first 6 months, but we've ranked it on what you'll actually keep once that ends. If you'd rather skip promos altogether, Everyday Mobile's $30 Prepaid Plan and Mate's Good Mates SIM Only Mobile Plan are tied at $0.50/GB with no promo involved at all.
How many of these plans are currently discounted?
In our database, 9 of the 25 plans in this range carry a promo -- most are modest (a few dollars off from Pennytel's Seniors offers or Telsim), but Tangerine Telecom and More Telecom's plans discount much more steeply, up to $50 off the regular rate. The other 16 plans are already priced at what you'll keep paying long-term.
What's the deal with the "double data" plans from Tangerine Telecom and More Telecom?
In our database, five plans (three from Tangerine Telecom, two from More Telecom) come with a temporary data boost on top of their price discount -- for example, Tangerine's 100GB 5G Mobile SIM actually delivers 200GB for its first 6 months before settling at its base 100GB. The price discount and the data boost run on different timers, so don't assume they end together. We've shown both the current bonus data and the long-term base allowance in the table above.
Which provider has the most plans in this range?
In our database, Pennytel and TeleChoice are tied for the most with 5 of the 25 plans each, followed by Tangerine Telecom with 3.
Why aren't Cmobile, Alpha Call, Better Life Mobile, EscapeNet or NewSprout on this page anymore?
In our database, none of these providers currently have a Telstra network plan priced between $20 and $30 -- they may have repriced outside this range, been discontinued, or simply not have a plan that fits this specific tier right now. Check our other Telstra plan pages if you're specifically after one of these providers.
Does coverage differ between these providers?
No -- every plan on this page runs on the Telstra network itself, whether it's sold directly by Telstra or through a reseller like Boost Mobile, Pennytel or TeleChoice. Coverage should be the same across all of them. See the Telstra mobile coverage map for details on your area.

Prices and data allowances shown are current in our database as of August 2026 and reflect advertised carrier pricing at time of listing. This page is limited to plans billed per 28 days, per 30 days or per month for direct comparability, priced between $20 and $30, and ranked by each plan's regular/ongoing price rather than its current advertised price -- where a plan has an introductory discount, both prices are shown. Plans, prices and inclusions change frequently, and details are entered into our database manually so errors are possible -- we do not guarantee the accuracy of any price, allowance, or other detail shown. Always confirm the final price and all plan information directly with the carrier before signing up.
