Do more people call 1800 phone numbers than local phone numbers with an STD code?
Great question and one that we don’t know the answer too! However, 1800 phone numbers are often perceived as being a national phone number which can be dialled from anywhere in Australia at a cost cheaper than if the area code + phone number was called. This is because the caller understands that the 1800 phone number is free from any land based phone anywhere in Australia.
