ALDImobile, the mobile services arm of the popular German discount supermarket, has offered low-cost mobile phone plans in Australia since 2013. For information about ALDImobile plans and offers, as well as contact information and reviews, continue reading below.
Overview of ALDImobile Australia
ALDImobile, also known as Aldi Talk or MEDIONmobile, was first started in Germany in 2005. Since then, it expanded to include Belgium, The Netherlands, and finally Australia in March 2013. In 2017, due to government regulations on the sale of unregistered phone plans, Aldi had to cease mobile sales in Belgium.
ALDImobile is a subsidiary of MEDION, a German electronics company, and Aldi, a German discount supermarket company.
ALDImobile Coverage
ALDImobile is an MVNO under the Telstra network which covers over 23 million Australians, or approximately 98% of the population. While the majority of coverage is focused along major cities, additional coverage can be found in small pockets across the Northern Territory and central region.

ALDImobile offers multiple mobile service and data options for its customers in Australia. However, just as with Gomo Mobile, all of ALDImobile's plans are prepaid.
