"Virtual number" means different things, so here is the plain answer for this site: 1300 Easy Dial publishes 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords — business inbound numbers with plans from $10 per month. It does not publish virtual-mobile or SMS-number services, so those variants of the virtual-number query are not something these pages can answer.

What the published products establish:

  • 1300 number: a shared-cost business number, with public plans starting at $10 per month.
  • 1800 number: free for customers to call in the stated Australian 1800-number context; the business pays the call charges. Plans also start at $10 per month.
  • Phoneword: a 13, 1300 or 1800 number that spells a word on the keypad, from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the price.
  • Connection: the signup flow asks for the number the service will connect to — the answering point your calls reach.

Why businesses compare these with virtual numbers

The appeal of a "virtual" business number is usually separation: a published contact point that is distinct from a personal or internal line. That separation is what an inbound 1300 or 1800 number provides in its published form — customers dial the business number, and the signup flow's connection question determines where calls land. What this site does not establish is anything further about devices, apps or mobile-specific behaviour, because those details are not part of the published material.

If the word "virtual" matters to your decision, judge the published facts on this page rather than the label: caller cost, plan price, memorability and the connection step are the things these pages can actually confirm.

Getting a number from 1300 Easy Dial

Search available 1300/1800 Phonewords to see what is listed, then complete the signup with your answering point ready. Availability is not guaranteed for any specific word, and a Phoneword's price depends on how desirable the word is. Current plan fees and call-rate tables are on the pricing page, in Australian dollars including GST.

Checking the details before you decide

  • Caller cost: shared cost on a 1300 number, or caller-free in the Australian context on an 1800 number.
  • Plan price: 1300 and 1800 plans from $10 per month, each with its own call-rate table on the pricing page.
  • Memorability: a Phoneword from $40 per month if the number should spell a word.
  • Connection: the answering point you nominate in the signup flow, since it asks for the number the service will connect to.

The pricing page also lists three add-on services — Call Tracking Numbers ($5 per month), an IVR Keypress Menu ($35 per month) and a Postcode Prompter ($250 per month) — published as services that help manage and analyse incoming calls.

Virtual number questions

Is a 1300 number a virtual number?

The published pages describe 1300 and 1800 numbers as inbound business numbers connected through the signup flow's answering-point question; they do not use "virtual" as a product term. Judge the published facts — caller cost, plans and connection — rather than the label.

Can I get a virtual mobile number or SMS number here?

Not from these pages. The published products are 1300 numbers, 1800 numbers and Phonewords; virtual-mobile and SMS-number services are not part of the published product range, so this site cannot answer queries about them.

What does a business number cost per month?

Published 1300 and 1800 plans start at $10 per month, and Phonewords start from $40 per month with availability and desirability affecting the price of a specific word.

Will callers pay to dial my number?

For an 1800 number, no — callers call free in the stated Australian 1800-number context and the business pays the call charges. A 1300 number is shared cost between the caller and the business.
