Suppliers of 1300 Numbers in Australia
New!
1300 numbers are 10-digit numbers that work Australia-wide where the caller is charged a local call rate when dialling from an Australian phone line, including mobiles.
Being Australia-wide, it means there is no need to use an area prefix when calling the number such as 03 for Melbourne or 02 for Sydney.
How do 1300 numbers work?
When a customer places a call to a 1300 number, the call enters the network and a search is conducted to find the relevant routing strategy that applies to the toll number.
A routing strategy effectively tells the network where to direct the call and in the case of 1300 numbers, it can be directed to a landline or mobile (or both) depending on what you require.
This all happens instantaneously, so the caller doesn’t experience any delay.
