Subscribers at all three tiers will see their monthly charge increase by up to 14%
Netflix Australia has hiked its prices yet again, floating out emails notifying subscribers this week that its three subscription tiers will all be increasing in price, by varying amounts, depending on the tier you’re signed up to. Standard (with ads) will get a AU$1 increase; Standard (without ads) goes up by AU$2 and the Premium tier will see a AU$3 rise.
Despite some valiant competition from Binge, Stan, Prime Video and even Disney Plus and Apple TV Plus, Netflix arguably remains the streaming service to beat. So, it might not seem like the biggest deal – I mean, it’s just one or two dollars a month, right?
That depends on whether you perceive Netflix to offer good value. We’re still on the fence, especially when you consider the percentage change in costs. The AU$3 increase to the premium tier takes it up to AU$25.99, making it the most expensive premium tier available in Australia. The standard tier changes from AU$16.99 to AU$18.99 and the standard (with ads) subscription is now AU$7.
