I just recently switched from vodafone to skinny because I was keen to try the $26 prepay combo with 1gb data. Im currently on the $16 plan until my 3 months of bonus 1gb data runs out, and was planning to switch after this but it now appears skinny have reduced the amount of data to 750mb on the $26 plan. That's a fairly hefty decrease in value Skinny has sneakily thrown on it's customers. Admittedly they have added rollover data, but since I use about 1gb of data per month on average that's of little use to me. The frustrating thing is that after the hassle of changing providers and getting my number switched over, skinny decide to significantly reduce the value of the plan I switched to them for.
The issue is not just with skinny, however. Vodafone used to offer a 500mb 30 day boost for $10, which i would use along with their $19 prepay plan. This has now increased to $12.
I've observed similar trends with 2 degrees, spark, etc.
What the heck is going on? I know it's not a huge change, but basically the point of my rant is aren't things supposed to be getting cheaper as technology advances and becomes more accessible? Why does it feel like things are moving in the opposite direction?
