• local and national calls at just 10c each
• mobile calls, first 200 calls or 400 mins are free*. Then 27c / min

How much will I save?

Right now, you're probably paying way too much on your phone bill. Most phone companies charge a connection fee (you have to pay even before you start talking!) and have per minute rates that are astronomical. You also probably have to pay extra for value-add features such as caller ID and call waiting. Add monthly line rental to this, and your monthly phone bill gets out of hand pretty quickly. With engin, there are no hidden charges, and we help you save big bucks:

• Call Costs - With a BEST VoIP plan, there are no connection fees. Local and national calls are either a flat 10c per call, or are free! Our overseas rates are dirt cheap, and some of our plans offer flat rate or free calls overseas too.
• Features - Every BEST VoIP phone plan comes with a bunch of features you would normally expect to pay for. Caller ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, Voicemail, V-Mail (voicemail to email). All free.

Telstra winback team harrassing BEST telecom customers

BEST telecom have had many recent reports from their customers that when they have changed to BEST telecom that Telstra have been harrassing BEST telecom customers to change their services to Telstra. What is even more alarming is that these customers were not previously with Telstra. What this clearly indicates is that Telstra Wholesale is passing information to Telstra Retail's winback team of inform what customer's are changing retail providers on the Telstra. This conduct is not only alarming but highly illegal and anti-competitive. If you are a customer that has received these calls, please contact BEST telecom.

  $1.50 maximum cost per call up to 20 min, 24 hrs, 7 days
