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.
Promotional
Since my phone flagged the call as "Suspected Spam," I chose not to answer, and no message was left.
User supplied: Good
The direct line belongs to Shinal Chand of Brendon recruitment. Her performance is ineffective.
JB Morrison seems reliable; the call was clear and professional. I'd trust this number again.
Scam targeting immigration.
A woman called claiming I’d won a contest and asked me to verify details to claim the prize. I responded only with grunts, aware they could record my voice, just to test them. She asked where I shop most, whether I own a cat or dog, and if I’d like to support a charity, mentioning St John’s and the Salvation Army. She grew irritated by my minimal replies and ended the call. The number reaches a voicemail if called back.
Multiple attempts were made, each time the line was cut off. We have no contacts in that area.
User feedback: Good
User flags this as Caution.
Even after you reject the call, they keep dialing back repeatedly without ever leaving a voicemail.
User indicated the data is bad and advised caution.
Spam call: they claimed to be from "global insights" economic research but couldn’t answer basic market queries, hung up, then called again 15 min later from another Australian mobile labeled -Nandi. Avoid answering – looks shady.
ASB indicated they placed my card on hold because of suspicious activity.
User rating: Bad
Received two calls today with no voicemail left; the number lacks a +64 prefix, indicating it likely originates from Wellington.
Unaware of the caller's identity, I advise not to call this number.
Scam about data usage urges you to download software that grants them control over your phone or PC
Kahu Bastion seemed reliable; the conversation was clear and courteous.
