In Canada, the land-line phones offer unlimited local calling (for a monthly fee). When calling a mobile (cell phone) from a land line, the mobile owner pays for the call, it's still free for the caller. I believe that in Australia it's the call originator that always pays, never the call receiver. My question: does that hold true for international calls, say from Skype - would the mobile owner in Australia have to pay to receive an international call from Skype? And are you confident your answer is correct for any mobile provider in Australia? Thanks.
Do Australian mobile providers charge for incoming international calls?
If the caller is O/S and the receiver is in Australia (with AU carrier), the caller pays and the receiver doesn't.
If the receiver (who has an AU carrier and "GLOBAL ROAMING" activated), receives a call while they are O/S from anywhere in the world, both the receiver and the caller pay.
By the way, to receive a call while global roaming is activated is quite expensive, so try to limit the call time!
Reply:All overseas calls to an Australian mobile number are charged to the call originator. So if you call an Australian mobile from OS you pay.
