  The webpage *still* says that!

  Note that the site only says "4G is coming soon..." ... "We will be
gradually migrating customers over the next 4 weeks". The coverage map
does not mention 4G at all.
  
  So until *Aldi* says it uses the complete Telstra network and
  *changes* their coverage map, my advice to SG1 still holds:

  *Check* on site, especially because this is about a *fixed* location!
