AP non-increases

It seems AP's 20% attempted price gouge on letters didn't get over the line.

AP's (convoluted) website is still showing prepaid envelopes at last year's prices.

I bought about 12 month's supply at the end of last year. Handy when I don't get paid in school holidays.

I know there was a thread about this, but I couldn't find it. And didn't want to be accused of bumping a dead thread.

The review is still with the ACCC for consideration.

That was about the request, to be implemented 2 January.

On the 10th the prices had not increased, as I noted in the OP.

"In December 2023, Australia Post provided the ACCC with a further revised draft price notification. . . The ACCC now expects to publish its view on the draft price notification in early 2024."
