Since the introduction of the NBN, Australia has been exposed to the potential of voice over internet protocol (VoIP). This technology allows phone calls and video conferencing to take place through an internet connection and is now the standard means for homes and companies to obtain a phone line.

But, the way you use your phone at home or in a small business will differ from how it works in a bigger or multi-site corporate system.

Our Phone Line service is designed to closely resemble how a classic fixed line functioned prior to NBN while also including all of the current features available in the new environment.

This basic service is available for a low monthly rate, including national calls to Australian landlines with a flat rate and calls to mobile phones having a timed charge. Adding a Mobile Saver keeps the flat rate to landlines while lowering the cost of mobile calls. And our Unlimited package includes all domestic calls to Australian landlines, mobile phones, and 13 and 1300 Smartnumbers.

Information about the service

Our Phone Line service provides domestic calls that are either timed and untimed depending on the plan, while International calls are charged for the duration of the call at a per-second rate.

The basic Phone Line includes the hosting of a single number and two channels. You may add additional numbers and channels if required.

The UNI-V service is a special case where a voice port on the NBN equipment is enabled. It is only accessible at Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) sites.

See Phone Extras for call rates and add-ons.

Factors that can affect service performance and reliability

Your phone service is supplied via the Internet and so is dependent on your Internet connection. Each call used around 100Kbps of uncontended bandwidth up and down. It is reliant on a fast (low latency) connection. If you are transmitting or receiving a large amount of data, the voice data may be delayed or dropped completely.

While every attempt is taken to deliver Emergency Service Calls (000 and 106), your phone service is carried across the Internet and third-party networks outside our control. As a result, we cannot guarantee that these calls will be completed.

Power Outages

In the event of a power outage, your Internet service may not function unless there is a battery backup unit installed. You should prepare for this loss and have the app installed on your mobile or tablet.

Compatibility

Security, Medical, Fire/Lift Alarm Services – You should contact your provider to assess whether your alarm is compatible with a VoIP service. They should be able to discuss available alternatives if your alarm is incompatible.

EFTPOS and Credit Card Services – These service will not work on a VoIP service. You should contact your provider to discuss available alternatives.
