Service centre numbers
To send and receive text messages you need the telephone number of your
network’s text centre. If you accidentally delete the send or receive service
centre numbers you will need to re-enter them in order for your text service
to work. The send and receive centre numbers are pre-populated for Telstra’s
PSTN text message service but you can change them to another service if you
want to. Telstra’s text message send service number is: 0198339100 and the
receive service number is: 0198339100.
