1300 and 1800 Number Availability

Every number below is in our pool right now — free standard numbers and phonewords you can search, check and connect. No "check back later" rounds: what you see in the live search is what we can connect.

We've been connecting Australian businesses for 20 years, and you'll deal with David, the owner — he answers the phone for sales and support, and he builds the products behind your number. Depending on the type of number connected, some have no lock in contracts but others do have a rolling 12 month contract, specifically when leasing a premium number.

What's available right now

Find out what 1300 and 1800 numbers are available here.

The numbers that are available to you are broken into two categories:

• Free numbers
• Phone words

Free numbers which can be obtained for no upfront fees, they just require a monthly fee to maintain the service connectivity. The better option though is a Phoneword which matches your business name or feature brand as long as it’s available. 1300 number availability is pretty easy to check, use our Search Tool and you will quickly know what your options are.

You may want to even do some ideation to come up with some form of word or series of numbers that does work (just in case your first preference isn’t available).

What does a number cost?

Three ways to get a number, one ladder:

• Standard number — randomly assigned, no upfront or lease fee. You just pay the plan, from $10/month with no setup fees.
• Phoneword (spells your business name or service) — leased from $40/month on top of your plan. Lease prices for each word are shown in the search and in the table below.
• Premium short sequences — the most memorable combinations carry higher leases, quoted per number in the search.

Availability has narrowed over the years — the industry was deregulated in the late 90s, an auction market formed, and the obvious words were bought up long ago. The pool we search is the one that matters: our sister carrier 1300 Easy Dial specialises in inbound numbers, and its database backs the same search — so if a word is connectable for you, it's in there.

Available Standard 1300 and 1800 Numbers

The other option is opting for a standard number. These numbers are free in the sense of comparing them to the premium inbound number which have lease fees, they have no initial charge, only the ongoing monthly fees.

The downside of these numbers is – they won’t make a special word, or have a great memorable sequence of numbers. Also, they are randomly assigned. We have very little control over the numbers and by default we allocate numbers at random. If you have a particular objection to a number you receive – you can reach out to support and request that we switch the number. Obviously this needs to be done immediately so it’s cheaper for all parties involved.

Which ever way you go, the call management features that come with your 1300 or 1800 service will make it easy to identify incoming business calls, and make it easier for your customers to get in touch with you for the price of a local call. 1300 and 1800 numbers are a national phone number allowing your customers to enjoy a local call rate regardless of geographic location.

How can I find available 1300 and 1800 numbers?

The database that 1300 Easy Dial and we hold is available for searching through the Search Tool.

There is some groundwork worth doing before you search, too. Our guides on 1300 number lookups, the 1300 number directory and running a 1300 number search explain how the pool works and what the numbers in it mean. If you want to confirm a specific number is still free, the 1300 numbers available check walkthrough covers it step by step, and Queensland businesses can use the 1300 number lookup for QLD for a local view.

The same applies to the 1800 range. See how an 1800 number checker works, browse the 1800 numbers directory for Australia, or review what 1800 numbers are available right now. For a sense of what a good number looks like before you commit, compare a few 1300 number examples and 1800 number examples against the full 1800 numbers list.

Can you get me 1300 XXX YYY (insert your desired number/word here)?

Short answer is hopefully! We acquired 1300 Easy Dial in 2021 along with a massive database of numbers that are available for lease. Check the 1300 number availability here. If it's available – buy it. If your exact word is taken, try a variant: swap a digit for a word (4 for "for", 2 for "to"), pick a shorter or alternate spelling, or start on a standard number now and upgrade to the word when it frees up — the 1300 number examples and 1800 number examples pages show combinations that work.

How long does it take to connect my new number?

If you opt for a free standard number, it will be done quick as possible – usually we get this done within a few minutes during business day. If you opt for a premium number (that makes a word or sequence of numbers) then it can vary depending on the word load with the carrier, however we average around 5 business days for this type of connection.

When do new numbers become available?

New numbers do become available from time to time. Generally this is due to existing clients cancelling their subscription for the service connected. These get added back into our database and will be searchable again, so keep this link in your bookmarks and you can check on your Phoneword from time to time.

To be honest, it is rather rare, we would only be re-advertising 2 to 3 numbers per year. But having said that we have re-published 1300 MYDENTIST which still gets calls – if this suits your business (ie. you run a Dentistry practice in Melbourne) then this could give you free business.
