Exetel VOIP Services
Provision of VoIP Services From Exetel
Exetel provides VoIP services by connecting customers via their Exetel ADSL or Mobile Broadband service to its own VoIP switches and then delivering national calls and international calls and calls to mobiles over Toll Quality lines from Verizon.
All management of a customer’s VoIP service is done by Exetel personnel and all billing of a VoIP customer’s calls is done by Exetel in house systems.
Payment of VoIP
Payment for VoIP services is due on the 1st of each calendar month; in arrears for Exetel ADSL or Mobile Broadband users.
Pre-paid VoIP services are also available to non-Exetel users or to Exetel users who wish to use VoIP on a pre-paid basis.
Exetel Monthly VOIP Plans (ADSL)
Exetel provides VoIP plans which are billed one month in arrears and are provided with a DID.
A "DID" (Direct In Dial) number is a valid PSTN dial number that is in the same format as a standard wire line number and allows calls from standard telephones to be made to your VoIP number.
Current numbers prefixes/ranges are;
Capital Cities: Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth
Regional: Newcastle, Penrith, Wollongong, Geelong
Exetel Monthly VoIP Plans (Mobile Broadband – Laptop/Desktop)
If you use Exetel’s Mobile Broadband service then Exetel’s VoIP is also available to you.Exetel’s Mobile Broadband service uses the Optus 3G mobile network and doesn’t require a land line of any type. This, depending on your personal circumstances, may allow you to discontinue renting your current land line and only use VoIP to make telephone calls from your desktop or laptop.
Before deciding that you can do without your land line telephone call ability please ensure you think through your personal circumstances very thoroughly.
Exetel Monthly VoIP Plans (Mobile Broadband – Mobile Handset)
Exetel can provide a Mobile Broadband service for use on your 3G mobile telephone handset via an Mobile Broadband enabled sim. You can also use the Mobile Broadband sim to make and receive ‘standard’ mobile telephone calls by selecting an Exetel mobile plan.
A better option, in many locations around Australia, is to use Exetel’s VoIP service instead of paying mobile call rates. VoIP is easy to set up on a 3G handset and the calls are, unless you have access to VERY special mobile call rates, between one half and one tenth of most current mobile call plans.
