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 today, each without leaving a message.
I received calls from this number daily throughout the week, sometimes two or three times. I answered only twice hoping it was important, but was met with hold music each time. After a few seconds I hung up and plan to block the number.
User described this as annoying.
An unknown cell call went unanswered. If it mattered, a reputable business would have left a voicemail, unlike this number. I'm blocking it to stop further harassment.
I answered a call from an unknown source and got a vague sales script. Nothing useful.
The caller never leaves a voicemail; they call back shortly after, still without leaving a message.
While away on holiday, I got daily calls for a week and kept forgetting to block them. When I called back, an automated greeting chimed, "Kia ora, we are Alzheimers New Zealand…" offering news and prompting me to enter my number to opt out. I declined, hung up and blocked the contact.
Support for Air New Zealand customers.
Got a call from a telemarketer pushing an 'Acc scam'—very pushy and seemed like a typical scam pitch.
Received a text addressing me by first name, asking to collect a parcel from a depot. When I requested details, they said they were a courier company and gave no further info. The texting style feels unprofessional and the company doesn’t seem legitimate.
Requested a follow‑up call concerning a warranty issue for my Dyson vacuum.
They continued to call, which turned out to be a scam number.
