If you are in immediate danger, call emergency services on 000.
If you are experiencing domestic, family or sexual violence, we are here to support you.
1300 Australia Pty Ltd ACN 108 792 016 has policies and procedures in place to protect the safety, privacy and wellbeing of consumers affected by domestic and family violence or non-domestic sexual violence.
We recognise that access to safe and reliable telecommunications is essential for safety, connection and recovery. We are committed to supporting affected persons in a respectful, trauma-informed way and to keeping consumers connected to their services wherever possible.
If your telecommunications service has been restricted, suspended or disconnected and you tell us this raises concerns about your safety, we will act as a matter of urgency to reverse that action. If reversal is not practical, we will offer an equivalent telecommunications service where available.
We recognise that domestic, family or sexual violence can be a reason for non-payment. Consumers affected by DFSV may be entitled to financial hardship assistance under the Telecommunications (Financial Hardship) Standard 2024. We will work with you to discuss available support options.
With your consent, we can provide additional support which may include:
agreeing on a safe way and time to contact you
applying a confidential DFSV safety flag to your account
taking extra steps to protect access to your personal information
reviewing fees, charges or credit actions that may affect your safety
You do not need to share details of the violence to receive support.
