Batemans Bay: landline numbers and carriers

The register lists 38 number blocks for it with about 66,000 allocated numbers, held by 19 carriers. A landline that calls you from one of these blocks was issued for the Batemans Bay area — though the line may since have been ported, and caller ID can be spoofed.
