Palm Island: landline numbers and carriers
Palm Island is one of the town-level numbering areas the ACMA register uses under area code 07 (QLD). The register lists 36 number blocks for it with about 23,200 allocated numbers, held by 20 carriers. A landline that calls you from one of these blocks was issued for the Palm Island area — though the line may since have been ported, and caller ID can be spoofed.
