Keep your 08 number
Nothing to port. Set your existing 08 line to forward to your Silux Voice number — every call, or only when you’re busy or don’t pick up — and callers in Darwin keep dialling the number on your van, sign or website. Prefer a fresh number? We allocate you a local Australia number.
A local number, on Darwin time
Keep your existing 08 number and forward it to your receptionist, or take a local Australia number we allocate for you. It runs on Australia/Darwin time, so opening hours, bookings and your morning summary follow Darwin’s clock, and your plan is billed in US dollars.
Holidays: Australia Day (26 January) and ANZAC Day (25 April) are national; most other public holidays, such as the King’s Birthday and Labour Day, fall on different dates in each state and territory. Set your own closures and it tells callers you’re shut rather than booking them in.

Questions from Darwin
Will my Darwin customers still ring my 08 number?
Yes. You forward calls from your existing 08 number to your Silux Voice number — every call, or only when you are busy or don’t answer — so customers in Darwin keep ringing the number they already know. Nothing has to be ported. If you would rather have a new number, we allocate you a local Australia number.
Does it follow Darwin opening hours and bank holidays?
You set your opening hours and holiday closures, and it answers accordingly on Australia/Darwin time. Australia Day (26 January) and ANZAC Day (25 April) are national; most other public holidays, such as the King’s Birthday and Labour Day, fall on different dates in each state and territory.
