Listen to our service options more slowly

Based on feedback, we've introduced a new service so you can listen to the options more slowly when you call us.

You can call the slowed service on 0800 700 334 (from New Zealand), or +64 483 25260 from overseas (charges apply).

All our usual options are available on this line, but they are presented more slowly.

Make an in-person appointment

If you'd like to make an appointment with us, we can arrange for a New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) interpreter to be present.

You can ask for an appointment by emailing us.

[email protected]

This email address is only for arranging appointments supported by an NZSL interpreter.

When you click on the link, an email will pop up asking for the details we need to arrange your appointment.

Please add your responses under each line, then send the email.

We will contact you within 7 days to confirm the appointment, once we have arranged for an interpreter to be available. We will arrange payment for the NZSL interpreter.

If the email does not pop up containing the details we need, please add the details below to the email.
