Setting up an Internode NodeLine Business Service

If you already have a business phone service: Transfer with a $0 setup fee

Most business phone services can be transferred to NodeLine Business as a simple 'churn' - these are currently $0. Please note that ISDN services cannot be transferred to NodeLine.

Further details on transferring an existing phone service to NodeLine Business are available on the Transfer page.

If you don't already have a phone service: from $59 to $179

 First ServiceAdditional Services

If any non-standard work is required, there may be additional setup charges - you will be advised by the technician if this is the case. This includes cabling past the first socket or network boundary point, trenching, or more difficult installations.

From 30 June 2016, the setup fee for the first service on a new line installation has been changed from $299 to $99. The setup fee for the first service on a telephone line connection with technician visit has also been changed from $125 to $99.

Line activation
For premises that already have a physical phone line with dial tone - excludes
brand new houses and apartments. This normally takes 2-4 working days.
$59 $59
Telephone line connection with technician visit
For premises with a socket and line, but no dial tone. Normally takes 5-7 working days.
Cost may vary depending on whether a physical connection is also required.
$99 $75.50
New line installation
For new homes, homes with no history of phone activity, or pre-existing homes that
need additional lines.
$99 $179

Early Cancellation Charge

An early cancellation charge of $99 applies within the first 3 months, to cover administrative costs. Internode will waive this charge if you are converting your NodeLine Business service to Easy Naked Business.

If you 'ported' your number into NodeLine from a non-Telstra network, a separate early cancellation charge applies. This is uncommon - most numbers are already on the Telstra network, and can simply be 'churned'. Don't worry if you don't know whether your transfer is a port or a churn - we'll take care of it.

  • If you've requested a transfer to NodeLine and it turns out to be a port, we'll contact you. Internode does not currently process ports, so your order will be cancelled without any cost or penalty to you.
  • In the past, Internode processed ports into NodeLine. For these services only, an early cancellation charge of $250 applies for the first 12 months.

You will never have to pay both cancellation charges. If the port cancellation charge applies, then the 3 month cancellation charge will not apply. Ports are fully explained in the NodeLine Transfer page.
