From the end of 2025, NZ will be shutting down 3G networks. It’s part of a global upgrade to 4G and 5G technology, to deliver a more reliable experience for users, and to future-proof mobile connectivity.
If you’re using a device that may not be fully compatible with the 4G and 5G network, you’ll need to upgrade before the 3G shutdown to stay connected.
| What is it | How much | Do I have any other options |
|---|---|---|
| Voicemail | Calls to voicemail are FREE | Go for gold. And with unlimited talk and text on our plans, you can carry on connecting without worry. |
| MMS PXT | Not available | If you are a serial PXTer you are better to send your messages via a messaging app like WhatsApp or Messenger instead. |
| International calls & texts | $10 for 250 calling minutes and 50 SMS messages to use within 30 days with our International Add-on | You can also use an app like WhatsApp or Messenger to contact friends overseas while connected to WiFi or mobile data. If you're on Pay Monthly, if you call or SMS overseas outside of the International Add-on, you'll be charged per minute or per SMS at rates specific to that location. |
| Roaming | For just $9 a day you can use your NZ data, minutes and SMS in our Daily Roaming destinations. | Our Daily Roaming Add-on is a pretty choice option. Otherwise you can stay connected via WiFi or a local SIM when you're travelling. |
| Premium rate numbers | Calls/SMS messages to premium rate numbers (e.g. reply "yes" messages that are subject to additional charges) aren't available on our Pay Upfront plans. | To maintain our everyday low prices and remove bill surprises, our Pay Upfront plans don’t allow premium SMS or calls. That might mean for example that you need to call your dentist to confirm that appointment instead of replying by SMS |
