The ACCC claims #Amazon had more than 1 million Australian annual subscribers on #AmazonPrime contracts with 5 unfair terms which allowed unilateral changes between November 2023 & August 2025.
The lawsuit alleges one of those terms was relied on when it introduced ads to #Prime in July 2024 which required subscribers to pay an additional $2.99 per month to remain ad-free.
ACCC Chair Gina Cass-Gottlieb said consumers were "left with no choice but to pay more". #auspol
