They get u to sign up and then say the number isnt available and offer u a more expensive number. Dont use this company. Here is their reply.
It was regards your order. Unfortunately the number you ordered has expired.
We can offer you another number from our Gold range at good price?
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I had 17 email communications with David of phonenumbers.net.au and in almost of them I showed scepticism towards his service, especially after reading a bad review. However I got the number I really wanted through Lebara, who David dealt through to get my phone number. And I now have the use of my old iPhone again with an easy to remember number. I gave David a really hard time, but he continued to respond to my concerns, and went beyond the call of duty to look after me. My phone number is as good as 04 06 06 6784 and I bought it for $85 as a Bronze level phone number. I couldn't be happier.
Tip for consumers:
Select a good easy to remember number.
Products used:
New easy to remember mobile phone number.
Thanks Garry for your detailed review. It was a pleasure dealing with you.
I don't use Sitejabber often and concentrate my efforts on Google Review (lots of 5 Star Ratings), eBay (! 00% Positive, over 550 feedback) and Gumtree (Highly Rated). Seek out those reviews from my thousands of happy customers.

Hi Scott,
I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused and the obvious distress this has caused you. As I explained via email (the above quote is only part of a long conversation - Scott has edited it to his advantage), in very rare cases numbers may expire or be faulty. In those rare instances I do my best to replace or offer an equivalent number. The similar numbers I offered cost only a few dollars more (the extra cost which I was willing to forgo). Unfortunately you did not like the offered replacements - which I can understand as number choice is a very personal thing. Thus in your case I gave you a full refund. This refund was given the same day of your order. Beyond that I was not aware of your further displeasure until now.
Please feel free to revisit my website as I constantly have new stock and hopefully you find a number you like (currently over 300 numbers available).
If you contact me I can give you a similar discount as I originally offered you to make up for the inconvenience.
BTW, my business has been operating for over 16 years and I am the biggest seller of mobile phone numbers in Australia. I have sold thousands of numbers to individuals and businesses. I am a Dealer for a number of telcos. I was recently featured in the national media due to the uniqueness of my business.
Thanks for your feedback.

UPDATE; It is now 2022, four years later and Scott unsuprisingly never got back to me. There are people out there who you can never satisfy despite your best genuine efforts.
