Earlier today an earthquake hit the Philippines near the city of Cebu. Many of our dedicated Customer Support employees are based in this region, and our thoughts are with all of them and their families as they deal with this disaster.
The office building where our employees are based has been evacuated. However, we are pleased that no employees are believed to have been injured or harmed.
As a result of this disaster, our phone, chat, and email customer support operations will be temporarily unavailable. We are working to get support in place and ask for your understanding and patience while we work through this.
You can still visit our Online Customer Support portal for any queries or help you may need.
Thanks for your understanding
The eBay team

Call Forward
Isn't it great to know that you can be anywhere you need to be and never miss an important home or business call. That's freedom!
Call Forward transfers calls from your home phone to a number you choose, be it your mobile, answering service or another phone. It has different settings according to whether your phone is engaged or unattended.
You can select to forward:
Pricing
Standard call charges apply for all forwarded calls. Call Forwarding standard feature (all calls) is free of monthly charges for most on Telstra Voice® Plans.
Availability
Call Forward is available in most areas throughout Australia. Call forwarding of selected numbers or of all calls at selected times is not currently available if you have a Digital Voice Service on the NBN.
Anything else I need to know?
Call Forward Immediate overrides all other Telstra Voice Features except Call Forward Selected Callers.
Call Forward No Answer – default is 20 seconds (approximately 7 rings) before a call will be forwarded. Can be set from 5 to 60 seconds.
Call Forward Selected Callers overrides all other Call Forwards. Calls can be forwarded to most numbers in Australia. Before using this feature you must activate your PIN on your home phone.
Call Forward Set The Time overrides Call Forward Busy and No Answer. Before using this feature you must activate your PIN on your home phone.

It would really rock if those employees in the Philippines were paid at Aussie rates.

Philippines minimum wage (Wiki) . . . . 205 pesos per day in nonplantation agricultural sector in the Ilocos Region to 456 pesos per day in the nonagricultural sector in the National Capital Region.
Just to condsider . . . 1 AUD = 41.6021 PHP (Philippines peso)
205 pesos = 6.00997 AUD

And, they now have the added insult of earthquake trauma to contend with.
Makes a person stop to think, doesn't it?
Well, it should.

I guess you're talking about Facebook, trustmee ?
I never had a facebook account. I feel too insecure to put my private life up on the 'net for all to see.
