How to unsuspend your iiNet services (Overdue invoices)
- Check your email and/or mobile phone for any email or SMS notifications from us.
If your iiNet invoice isn't paid by the due date, you'll receive an email/SMS notification advising the earliest possible date your services may be suspended, BEFORE suspension occurs. Suspension can be prevented entirely by paying the amount owing before the advised suspension date. - If your iiNet invoice remains unpaid and your iiNet services are suspended, all you need to do is pay the amount owing. You can do this by:
- Making a payment in Toolbox; or
- Calling us on 13 22 58 to make a secure credit card payment over the phone; or
- Using any of the alternative payment methods listed on your invoice. - Once your payment has cleared, your iiNet services should automatically unsuspend within one business day.
If you are experiencing difficulties making this payment, then please see our Financial Hardship Policy for information about your options and how to speak to someone about your circumstances.
How to unsuspend your iiNet services (Security incident)
- Check your email and/or mobile phone for any email or SMS notifications from us.
Due to the unpredictable nature of security incidents, you'll be notified AFTER your services have been suspended. We may also attempt to contact you by phone using the contact details listed on your account. - The notification you receive will explain the nature of the security incident and outline what needs to be done in order to resecure your account. In general, this will include:
- Changing your iiNet account password(s)
- Running antivirus and malware scans
- Ensuring you are using secure passwords for your home network (i.e. WiFi and router access, particularly if a remote management feature is in use) - Once we've spoken to you to verify your identity and ensure that measures have been taken to resecure your account, your iiNet services may be unsuspended.

What are the consequences if my service is restricted?
Service restrictions are typically related to spend management tools and may occur when you have used 100% or more of your service inclusions, such as data. Restrictions do not necessarily indicate that your services are at risk of suspension or disconnection.
If one or more of your services are restricted, you will not be able to use select features of the services. For example:
- If you have a Mobile service and have used all of the monthly mobile data included in your plan, the ability to use mobile data will be restricted and you won't be able to access the internet. Other features of the service, such as receiving calls/SMS and making calls/SMS that are part of your plan’s included value, will remain available.
- If you have a Fetch TV service that has exceeded the monthly spend limit for Video on Demand content, you won’t be able to purchase Video on Demand content such as movies or TV shows. Other features of the service, such as viewing TV channels, will remain available.
You will need to wait until your next billing period begins for the restriction to be removed. Alternatively, you may call us on 13 22 58 to make arrangements for increasing your monthly spend limits.
For prepaid mobile services, you may choose to top up your Prepaid Balance in Toolbox to purchase a mobile data block.
What are the consequences if my service is suspended?
If one or more of your services are suspended, you will not be able to use those services.
For example, if your suspended service is a fixed or mobile voice service, you won’t be able to make calls (except to emergency services like 000) on your phone or handset or use mobile data. If your suspended service is an internet service, you won’t be able to connect to the internet or use services that require connection to the internet like email, VoIP phone or Fetch TV.
You may not purchase additional services while one or more of your services are suspended. Ongoing monthly plan charges will still apply while the service is suspended. You will need to pay all overdue amounts owing before the suspension is removed. This can take up to 1 business day after the payment has been received.
Failure to pay overdue amounts after services are suspended may lead to your services being disconnected.
What are the consequences if my service is disconnected?
Unlike suspension, disconnection of your service is permanent.
Disconnection means you will lose your telephone number, username and any email account(s) with us. You will need to reapply for a new service, which may incur new application costs. Following disconnection, the plan for your particular service may no longer be available.
For example, if your voice service is disconnected, you won’t be able to use mobile data or receive or make any calls on your handset or phone (for some fixed line services, even calls to emergency services like 000 cannot be made or received after disconnection). You will also lose your telephone number and you will need to reapply for a new service, which may incur costs. If you have an internet service, you will lose access to the internet, including any service that requires internet access like email, VoIP phone or Fetch TV.
We may also require you to immediately stop using and return to us, or allow us to remove, any equipment or material belonging to us. We may delete all of your data from any storage media, such as email servers (you are solely responsible for backing up your data).
You will still have to pay all charges incurred before disconnection, including any applicable cancellation fees. Failure to pay may affect your ability to reapply for a new service with us.
Disconnection will also activate our debt recovery process. This will involve referral to a recovery agent or solicitor and may result in a further claim for the costs associated with recovery action. The debt recovery process may also be reported, see our Credit Information Management Policy for more information.
How to make payment
You can make a payment by following the instructions on your invoice or using a credit card to pay via Toolbox. Alternatively, you may call us on 13 22 58.
If you wish to discuss your account, or don’t have your original invoice, then please contact our Support team via email or by calling 13 22 58 (open 24/7) and we’ll be happy to help.
