My Daughter is in Brisbane on the Optus network (Mobile).

I'm on UK on BT landline.

Why when I ring her mobile she has to pay to receive my call.......But when she rings me via her landline to O2 my mobile, it does not cost me a penny.

Is there anywhere we can get around her using minutes and credits when receiving my call ?

Both use smartphones with an App like viber and talk for free?

Advise your Daughter to leave Optus if at all possible and take up a no contract offer from ALDI or Amaysim. The cost will be reduced.

Gosh is that new? I don't recall ever having to pay to receive a call on my mobile unless I was overseas on international roaming and then, of course it was like haemorrhaging money.

Just use Skype Out and Skype Number and you get a local number to call, I pay $10 a month for unlimited crystal clear calls to the UK and back.

My friends call my UK Skype Number and I call my local Sydney number. However if I'm in LTE (4G) coverage zone I just use Skype app on the phone.

She doesn't pay to receive your call. If she thinks that Optus are then she needs to call them and ask that they explain the bill to her.
