Port Lincoln: landline numbers and carriers
Port Lincoln is one of the town-level numbering areas the ACMA register uses under area code 08 (SA, WA & NT). The register lists 45 number blocks for it with about 54,300 allocated numbers, held by 20 carriers. A landline that calls you from one of these blocks was issued for the Port Lincoln area — though the line may since have been ported, and caller ID can be spoofed.
