If you have a phone number with another carrier you would like to keep, select the “Transfer number to Telstra” option when shown. We’ll ask for your existing phone service, the carrier,  the service type (if you pay monthly on a contract or if it’s a Pre-Paid number), and potentially your account number. Once you have entered these details, we will submit an application to have your phone number transferred to Telstra.

If your existing mobile plan is with another carrier and you transfer your number to Telstra, you’ll no longer be able to use your existing plan/service.

If you are in contract with your existing service, you may need to pay early termination fees for your plan, hardware and/or services. If you are transferring your number from another carrier, fees and charges may be applicable when transferring your mobile number, including any contract cancellation fees with your existing provider.
