Southern Cross Telco, also known as Southern Cross Mobile or Southern Cross Telco & Mobile, is an Australian communications company, offering landline phone, mobile phone and internet services. They are based in Hobart, Tasmania.
Their phone services use the Telstra GSM and CDMA networks and they resell Optus internet access services, including dial-up, broadband, and ADSL 2+.
They are a subsidiary of Australian company Orion Telecommunications, which bought the European former parent company NewTel in 2004.
In 2005 Telstra took legal action against them, alleging their telemarketers were misleading Telstra customers. [2]
