Is Southern Phone legit?
Legit, mixed reviewsStarted by local councils in NSW, Southern Phone is a genuine regional telco, but it is changing hands: from July 2026 its services move to a company in the Aussie Broadband group. You cannot choose your transfer date, and afterwards the biller code changes and paying by phone or at the post office stops.
What we checked
- Telco founded in 2002
- Head office in Moruya, NSW
- Ratings on other review websites: 1.5/5
Watch out for
- A Telstra-network mobile or satellite internet service, which cannot move across in the transfer to the new company.
- Going over your mobile data after the transfer, when your speed drops to 1.5Mbps instead of a paid data boost.
- Your mobile number being moved to another provider by someone else, a trick scammers have used to get into bank accounts.

Is Southern Phone now part of Aussie Broadband?
Yes: Aussie Broadband bought the AGL telco business that included Southern Phone, and the purchase was completed on 15 June 2026. Southern Phone's website says that from July 2026 services are being transferred to Energy Telco (South) Pty Ltd, trading as Southern Phone Company and part of the Aussie Broadband group, and that plans stay the same. While the move to new ownership is under way, Southern Phone has put sales of new SIM plans and new connections on hold.
Keep the notices about the transfer and your last bill from before it, so you can compare the plan, the price and the inclusions afterwards.
Bill after the transfer not matching the plan you had? We help you write the complaint in minutes, with the old and new bills set out side by side.
How do I cancel Southern Phone?
To cancel a Southern Phone service, call 13 14 64 and ask Southern Phone to confirm in writing the date the service ends and any charges still to come. Moving to another provider works differently: the new provider usually arranges the connection, and a mobile number should be ported to the new provider before the Southern Phone service is closed, or the number can be lost. Check your plan for any handset, modem or other equipment payments that fall due when you leave.
Keep the cancellation confirmation and check the final bill against it, line by line.
Charged after the date your service ended? Bring it to us through our complaint process: our trained AI opens a case for you and keeps coaching on what to reply and when to push again.
Can I complain to the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman about Southern Phone?
Yes: in Australia, the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman (TIO) takes complaints from people and small businesses about their phone and internet problems, and Southern Phone is a member of its scheme. The TIO generally expects Southern Phone to have had the chance to put things right first, so keep a record of every contact, with dates and reference numbers.
