KB Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Hi everyone, For anyone contemplating using the Sensis directory service number, 1234, DON'T! Sensis, as you may or may not know, is a subsidiary of Telstra. The 1234 number is replacing the Telstra 12456 directory assistance number, but this time with outrageous costs attached: 40c to call the number, then 4c A SECOND! By law, Telstra have to provide a FREE directory assistance number, because they are still majority owned by the government. They choose however not to pass this number on to the public. What's the number?............ 1223 Thumbs up to Telstra for finding a way to charge for a service that is supposed to be provided for free.
