What is Consumer Price Index (CPI)?

CPI is the rate of inflation and is calculated annually by collecting prices for goods and services that households buy. It is measured as the rate of change of those prices, which typically rise over time.

How does Telstra determine what the CPI rate will be?

Telstra doesn't determine CPI. We take the annual result as determined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

We’ll use the CPI rate released by ABS for the 12 months to the March quarter and any increase will be rounded to the nearest dollar.

Capped 4G and 5G speeds

Download speeds for included data are capped at 250Mbps on our 4G and 5G network rolling out from August.

How to access 5G

Our 5G network now reaches over 75% of Australians. To access 5G, you’ll need a 5G compatible device in a 5G coverage area. See if 5G is in your area, use our 5G coverage checker.

Network speed

Speeds may vary due to factors such as location, distance from the base station, local conditions, concurrent users, hardware and software configuration and download/upload destination.

No excess data charges.

If you exceed your included data allowance, you won’t be charged extra but your speed will be capped at 1.5Mbps, and slowed further in busy periods. This isn’t suitable for HD video or high-speed applications and means that some webpages, videos, social media content and files may take longer to load. However, you can still stream video in standard definition, listen to music, browse the web and access social media, even if the experience is slower sometimes. Heavy data users (users in the top 1% of all data users) may experience slower speeds than other users during busy periods.
