FREE CALLS TO THE UK FOR OPTUS CUSTOMERS

23 May 2017

Our thoughts go out to everyone affected by the terrible events that have taken place in Manchester.

Optus consumer post-paid mobile and fixed customers will receive free standard voice calls to the United Kingdom from 12:01am AEST 24th May 2017 until midnight 28th May 2017. This includes calls to mobile and landline numbers. Calls made to the United Kingdom during this time will not be charged to your next bill.

Pre-paid mobile customers will receive zero-rated standard voice calls made to the United Kingdom from 07:00am AEST 24th of May until midnight 28th May 2017.

The high volume of calls on the telecommunications network around Manchester may impact calls getting through. Customers may experience busy tones, recorded voice announcements, or the call might go straight to voicemail during busy periods.
