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.

Two calls were placed within five minutes, but no voicemail was left.
They used my full name, referenced a survey I supposedly completed, and attempted to pitch car insurance—odd since I don't own a vehicle or drive, yet the survey supposedly offered a discount on insurance.
Got a brief connection, but couldn't tell what it was for. Probably just a regular business line.

Identical
An automated call keeps dialing several times each day, mentions your name and claims it isn’t a marketing pitch. It’s best to block and report it.
User supplied details: Negative and warning.
