I would never go back to a major telco when all three sell their network wholesale for cheaper.
Telstra owns Belong, Optus owns Amaysim & Vodafone has Felix. Each of the subsidiaries are cheaper despite being under the parent company. On top of those, there are tons of third-party sellers that are just as cheap and often cheaper.
I personally use Woolworth's Everyday Mobile for the Telstra Network + -10% at Woolworths checkout once per month.
I often wonder what's the point of the major telco plans when they have cheaper plans on their subsidiaries - exclusively serving the naïve and old? Physical store for customers to slam their fist down at?
