Since switching to NBN, the landline can only receive incoming calls but can’t make outgoing calls. It has the dialtone but when making a call, you always heard the voice” the number you have dailed is not available from this service, OCA 0163”. The internet works fine.

I'm having exactly the same problem, how can we fix this?

There is no problem with the telephone line, you can even use the phone to call TPG customer service directly. The problem was that the outgoing call function was suspended due to insufficient funds in the account.

Hi @Kwickett83

 

Welcome to the Community!

 

We received your PM and checked the account. It shows that your phone status is 'unfinancial', which is why you are not able to make calls.

There's a pending payment that you need to settle as well.

 

We'll raise this with our Accounts team and have someone to call you before 3PM today.
