Telstra reviewing silent number fees for Family Violence Victims

Posted on February 26, 2013September 7, 2016 by Kim

Telstra has announced that they will be reviewing the fees that they charge for silent numbers.

This is in response to the need for family violence victims to have their personal details protected due to the personal safety risk.

Tip: If you or someone you know has a silent number due to family violence, now is a good time to check online to make sure it has not been published by accident.
