Unknown calls in New Zealand
Unsure about a New Zealand number? Explore concise community notes to judge calls and texts. In Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Hamilton you’ll see a mix of legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) and waves of robocalls or phishing. Prefixes like 09 (Auckland), 04 (Wellington), 03 (Christchurch), 07 (Hamilton) and 02x mobile ranges don’t reliably prove location or identity because of portability and VoIP.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices and never share one‑time codes by phone. Use device/carrier blocking for repeat issues and leave a short, factual note here to help others.

Looks like a scam, just saying.
The advertisement was very pushy; I decided to block the number.
I called back and discovered it was Raisers Hub, a telemarketing company.
Unsure of the caller, I answered and the line was hung up on immediately.
Unknown caller, probably a wrong number.
User suggested proceeding with caution.
User rated it as good, plus additional comments.
The line quality was terrible; they claimed I’d entered a draw and urged me to enter again.
Pertains to finance.
Someone speaking with an Indian accent claimed to represent Yelp (unverified) and said they needed to ask questions to suggest better solutions for our business. Because I was busy and reluctant to share details with an unknown person, I asked for an email instead. He seemed displeased and cut the call short, making it feel like a rude telemarketing pitch. Please stay cautious with calls like this.
Survey call that felt a bit scripted, not very helpful.
