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.
When asked for my credit card information, I declined, stating that I would rather become a member, but the representative claimed this was not an option.
This number seems dodgy, and it's from the wellington area, so be carefull.
Seems like a reliable number, I haven't had any issues reaching them.
Apparently, the caller claimed to have gotten my number from a old address book, and they asked me about paying off my mortgage, but i had never contacted NZ Assist before, which was weird
Repeated calls from this number led me to initially suspect it might be from the authorities, but fortunately, a helpful comment here has alleviated my concerns.
They called multiple times without leaving a message, and unfortunatly I finaly picked up on the last call
Everytime it ring's me 3 time's and then hung up, when i try to call back it wont connect, thats really frustrating grrr.
Persistent calls are irritating; blocking the number only results in a similar number calling back with just one digit changed.
When I returned the call, it went straight to voicemail, playing a message that thanked me for calling Raiser Hub.
Usually just one call a day, but I blocked it so it never rings—only shows up when I view blocked calls. Today I got a voicemail notice, turned out it was the same number, but the caller stayed silent, whatever.
Random caler asked for me by name and then just dipped on me - weird
Numerous calls were recieved daily, and when I finaly answered, the line went quit and didnt respond for a wile before hanging up, very wierd.
The caller was seeking a donation to the coastguard, apparently
I just hung up the phone
A SkyTv deal was offered, but the call seemed suspicious as they knew my name
Its a online scam, dont fall for it, its suppost to be about amazon shopping.
Incoming calls from 03 565 0402 and 03 565 0415 leave messages and appear to be from scammers.
What’s with the "House Smile"? Confused.
Looks like there wasn’t any voicemail; likely just spam or an ad. yup.
