Cheap 1300 Numbers FAQ
Straight answers about cheap 1300 numbers: entry pricing from $10 per month ex GST, contract terms, caller cost, and the points this page cannot establish.
The short answer most people come for: a cheap 1300 number here starts at the published floor — the 1300 Prepaid plan at $10 per month, 12c/min to fixed lines, 32c/min to mobiles, $5 call credit, prepaid only, ex GST — and standard plans are month-to-month with no lock-in. The longer answers, including what this page cannot establish, are below.

- Higher rows: from $39 to $99 per month, trading a higher fee for lower rates and included minutes or credit — the full table is on the pricing page.
- A word on the number: Phonewords start from $40 per month, with availability and desirability affecting the price.
Caller cost and contracts
A 1300 number is a shared-cost number: callers pay a local call rate and the business pays the per-minute rate on its plan. If removing the caller's cost matters more than the monthly fee, an 1800 number is the free-for-callers option in the Australian context. On contracts: standard 1300 and 1800 plans are month-to-month with no lock-in; Phonewords are premium numbers and their terms are published on the pricing page.
On what is not covered here: porting an existing number needs operational confirmation this page cannot give, and call-handling feature inclusions are not reconciled on it either. The published extras are the add-ons — Call Tracking Numbers ($5/month), IVR Keypress Menu ($35/month) and Postcode Prompter ($250/month).
