Porting, briefly
1300 Number Porting
Porting moves your existing 1300 number onto a new provider and plan. The digits stay the same; the rates and the routing platform are what you are changing.
- Digits unchanged
- Landlines portable too
- Plans from $10/month
Porting questions
Can I port my 1300 number to another provider?
Yes — 1300 numbers are portable, along with 1800 and landline numbers. The allocation moves to the new provider; the digits your customers know stay the same.
What do I need to port my number?
Authorisation from the account holder, your current account details, and the new plan you are moving onto — the providers coordinate the transfer from there.
Why port instead of getting a new number?
Because the old digits are printed everywhere: vans, signage, invoices, memories. Porting keeps them working; a new number means republishing all of it.
What does porting cost?
The number moves onto your chosen plan — from $10 a month — with the call rates published on the pricing page. Confirm specifics for your number when you start the port.
Porting a 1300 number is the alternative to republishing your advertising: the digits your customers know move to a new provider and a new plan, and everything printed with those digits keeps working. Here is the short version of the process.
What you need
- Authority. The port requires the authorised account holder's approval — sort out any account questions with your current provider first.
- Your details. Current account information and the exact number being ported.
- A destination plan. The ladder runs from $10 to $99 a month, with per-second call rates by origin published on the pricing page.
What happens
The providers coordinate the transfer of the allocation; you keep answering on the number throughout. Once the port completes, confirm the routing lands where you expect — answer points and rules may need re-entering on the new platform — and test from another phone.
The pre-port checklist
- Rates in writing — the new plan's monthly fee and per-second charges by origin.
- Feature parity — routing, recording and reporting included on the new plan, not re-priced as extras.
- The exit, both ways — the number must remain portable; portability is what made the move possible, so keep it true.
