01x special services
The 01 range hosts special network services — satellite phones, data network access and other technical allocations.
What does calling a 01 number cost?
Costs vary by the specific service; none of these ranges are ordinary landlines or mobiles.

Risk assessment
Ordinary people rarely receive genuine calls from 01x numbers (other than satellite 014x). Treat an unexpected 01x caller ID as likely technical traffic or spoofing and verify before calling back.
Who holds 01 numbers?
The ACMA register currently lists 109 allocations in this family with a combined capacity of about 10,101.2m numbers, spread across 29 holders. The largest holder is TELSTRA LIMITED with 55% of allocations. The register names the holder of record; the service you reach when you dial is usually a customer of that provider.
