Products & solutions

  • If a customer has a valid Health Care Card they may be eligible for Telstra’s $30/month Value Mobile Offer, which is the $45 Extra Small Mobile Plan with a monthly recurring $15 credit.

    Find out more about eligibility requirements.

  • The Legal Lessee is the individual legal entity responsible for the Telstra account, and is usually the person who requests connection of the service.

    A Telstra service may only have one Legal Lessee who is responsible for all charges on that service. If you are the Legal Lessee, you can request for your bill to be sent to joint names, and you may appoint others as authorised representatives on your account to act on your behalf. However, the legal liability remains with the Legal Lessee.

  • We offer a range of ways to pay your bill that will fit your needs and budget.

    • Direct debit: choose to pay either a one-off, fixed amount or have automatic deductions made from your nominated bank account or credit card.
    • Centrepay: organise an automatic deduction from your Centrelink benefit payment.

    To find out more, visit the billing choices support page or call 13 2200.

  • We have several billing choices available including receiving bills by email or viewing them online. To find out more, visit the billing choices support page or call 13 2200.

    You can organise Braille or large print bills by calling the Telstra Disability Enquiry Hotline (Monday to Friday 8am – 5pm EST).

    • 1800 068 424 (Voice)
    • 133 677 (TTY)
    • Email us
  • You can request call barring to certain types of calls being made from your Telstra home and/or mobile phone, for example 190 premium rate calls or International calls.

    To find out more call 13 2200.

  • Centrepay is an automatic deduction that you can nominate from your Centrelink benefit.

    If you’re a Centrelink customer and a Telstra home phone customer, you can nominate an amount to be regularly deducted from your Centrelink payment (minimum $10 a fortnight) to your Telstra account. You remain responsible for paying any outstanding amounts.

    To apply for Centrepay:

    1. visit a Centrelink Customer Service Centre
    2. apply from your myGov account
    3. go online to find more information and apply for Centrepay
    4. call Centrelink on 13 2300.

    Note: The Centrepay deduction form will ask you for your “Service provider’s Centrepay Reference Number”. For Telstra, this is 555-052-438-T.

  • The Legal Lessee is liable for all charges incurred on their Telstra phone service. To change the Legal Lessee, the existing account must be cancelled, and a new account created for the relevant connection fee.

    Where two people have lived in the same residence and the Legal Lessee moves out (or becomes deceased), the remaining person can have the service transferred to their name without cost if they keep the same number, take over any existing liability on the account, and the connection and disconnection occur at the same time. Otherwise a new service will be connected for the relevant connection fee.

    Where a Telstra service is in the name of a partner who has passed away, it can be transferred to the surviving partner without cost. Otherwise, a new service can be started for the relevant connection fee.

    To find out more, call 13 2200.

  • When applying for a new telephone service, an external credit check may be undertaken by us through an external credit reporting agency. If your application for a telephone service is unsuccessful because of information supplied by the credit agency, you are entitled to ask the agency for a copy of the credit information it holds about you.

    We also list debts that are in default with two external credit reference agencies.

    • For Dunn and Bradstreet (Australia) Pty Ltd, call 1300 734 806.
    • For Veda Advantage Information Services and Solutions Limited, call 1300 762 207.
  • Telstra’s Disability Equipment Program gives you access to a range of phones and accessories to make calling easier. Products include big button phones and teletypewriters (TTY). The program offers specialised telephone equipment to eligible customers, which can be rented for the same cost as a standard telephone handset.

    For more information:

    Visit our disability services page or call our Disability Enquiry Hotline

    • 1800 068 424 (Voice)
    • 133 677 (TTY)

  • For life threatening emergencies call 000. Tell the operator what you need – fire, police or ambulance – and you’ll be connected.

    When reporting an emergency by calling 000, the telephone number and address you’re calling from may be given to the emergency service so that they can respond quickly. All calls to 000 are recorded.

    People who use a teletypewriter (TTY) or a computer with modem to access the telephone network can contact emergency services (police, fire and ambulance) via the National Relay Service on 106. This service is not available to people who do not use text-based communication.

  • If you need a payment extension, please contact us as soon as possible after you receive your Telstra bill or reminder notification.

    InContact has no monthly access charge and can be used to receive calls (except reverse charge calls) and make calls to emergency numbers (such as triple zero (000)), Telstra customer service, selected service difficulties and faults numbers and all 1800 Freecall based services. Other outgoing calls can be made using a Telstra PhoneAway card.

    InContact is only available to new, eligible customers for a maximum period of 12 months (except in certain circumstances such as financial hardship or for medical reasons). We may contact you from time to time to verify that you are still eligible for the service.

    Customers wishing to apply for an InContact service must meet the eligibility criteria and hold a current, valid and eligible concession card. Eligible concession cards include a Pensioner Concession Card issued by the Australian Government Department of Veterans’ Affairs, Centrelink or the Australian Government Department of Human Services, or a Health Care Card issued by the Australian Government Department of Human Services or Centrelink carrying an eligible payment code.

  • Having an unlisted number means that your name, home phone number and address will not be published in the printed and online White Pages or available from Directory Assistance. There is no fee for an unlisted number. Find out more at Telstra Privacy.

    To request an unlisted number call us on 13 2200

    It’s important to know that being unlisted will not stop all unwanted telemarketing calls. Find out more about how to reduce unwanted telemarketing calls.
