Use free VOIP calls by avoiding 13/1300 numbers

In the last few years, there has been a shift in telecommunications companies to offer unlimited local and now with VOIP, even unlimited national calls. However, the exception is the 13 and 1300 numbers which still get charged $0.30c which is quite frustrating when you have unlimited free calls! One such phone plan is iiNET's talkpack which gives you free calls to local and national numbers. Here are some telephone banking numbers which would allow you to avoid the 13 number and call for free on VOIP and other similar phone plans.
  • Westpac (02) 9293 9270
  • HSBC (02) 9005 8187
  • NAB (03) 8641 9083
  • ANZ (03) 9683 9999
  • Everyday Money (1300101234) 02 8276 0144
  • Ubank (02)87560947
  • Commonwealth Bank Netbank (02) 9999 3283
  • Qantas Sales, Booking & Flight enquiries, Frequent Flyer enquiries : (03) 9658 5302
  • 3 Customer Care (02) 9964 4646. You have to ask the operator for "3 Customer care"
  • iiNET residential sales (08) 9214 2222
  • Bankwest (08) 9449 2840
  • Australia Post (03) 8847 9045

    It's also worth noting that most large corporations in AU have a number for 'international' callers which lists the non-1300 and 13 numbers which is usually found at the bottom of a 'contact us' page.

    1300 numbers are designed to benefit the callers that are not local to the business. The voip age has made things a little different now.
