Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / Australian Group / August 2006New '0500' mobile numbers out??
Noticed a new mobile number starting with '0500 xxx xxx' for the first time. Have they finally run out of 04xx numbers?? I thought the 05xx numbers were old analog numbers? > Noticed a new mobile number starting with '0500 xxx xxx' for the first time. > Have they finally run out of 04xx numbers??

Perhaps you saw one of the old 0500 numbers (if you had one you could set it up to try you at various numbers until you answered... eg if someone called you on 0500123456 the network would try your home, then mobile, then ..., until you answered). Have a look here http://www.acma.gov.au/ACMAINTER.65636:STANDARD::pc=PC_1681 > Noticed a new mobile number starting with '0500 xxx xxx' for the first > time.

Just a redirect service, brilliant idea but nobody would ring it cause they thought it was a premium price number. Analogue numbers were prefixed with 018 (&019 from memory) >> Noticed a new mobile number starting with '0500 xxx xxx' for the first >> time. Have they finally run out of 04xx numbers??

As others have stated that is the 0500 prefix you have seen. -- The views I present are that of my own and NOT of any organisation I may belong to. 73 de Simon, VK3XEM. <http://web.acma.gov.au/pls/radcom/client_search.client_lookup?pCLIENT_NO=157452> >> Noticed a new mobile number starting with '0500 xxx xxx' for the first >> time.

They became crap after MNP, because you couldn't do double-diversion. Mine was directed to an Optus mobile, and it would then go to Optus mobile voicemail. Come MNP, that stopped happening and there was nothing they could do to fix it. |
