If you’re using your Mobile Phone in selected overseas destinations as set out in the list of Daily Roaming Destinations, you can use mobile data, call or SMS standard mobile or landline numbers in NZ, Australia, or the destination you’re located in (as applicable) for $8 (“Daily Rate”) per day. A day is defined as 00:00 to 23:59 NZ time (“Daily Rate Period”).
  2. Only your Plan allocation of calls, SMS and/or Data are included in the Daily Rate. Any Add-ons, special rates, promotions or offers are not included in the Daily Rate and may incur additional charges on use overseas.
  3. Calls and SMS made to any destination other than standard mobile or landline numbers in NZ, Australia, or the destination you’re located in will be charged at the applicable Standard Rates as if you had made the call or sent the SMS from within NZ.

    2. receive a call (or don’t answer an incoming call that diverts to your Voicemail); or
    3. send a SMS; or

    3. turn your phone off entirely.

General

  1. All roaming charges incurred are in addition to your monthly Plan charges and will be billed to the Account responsible for your connection. We will endeavour to capture all roaming charges on the bill following the roaming activity, but this will not always be possible, including where an external network provider is delayed in advising us of roaming activity and where this occurs, charges may appear on a later bill.
  2. Roaming pricing, destinations, and service availability are all subject to change without notice at any time. Please visit our website to check the latest pricing and destination inclusions that apply to you before you travel.
  3. We reserve the right to hard steer traffic to certain network providers and add or remove destinations included in Roaming Zones at any time without notice.
  4. Roaming calls are subject to any maximum call time lengths that our roaming partners may apply to each call made on their network.
  5. Roaming services are only available within the coverage of each of our overseas roaming partner’s networks. We do our best to select roaming partners that provide quality services to you, but you acknowledge and agree it is not possible for network providers to provide a fault-free service at all times and we will not be responsible for any issues or service failures relating to the provision of roaming services by third party network providers (including disconnection, lack of coverage or the performance of that provider’s network).
  6. Coverage and services may be adversely affected by radio interference, geographic or atmospheric conditions, outages, maintenance works, over-loading, faults or limitations in your Mobile Phone or the mobile phone or other device of the person with whom you are communicating, faults or other operational difficulties in our roaming partner’s network or any other mobile telecommunications network to which that network (or our network) is connected, or other circumstances or factors not wholly in our control. This means you may not receive all of the services in all areas all of the time.
  7. Coverage and services can also change as our roaming partners continue to manage, build, develop and improve their networks.
  8. We reserve the right to make changes to these Additional Terms at any time, if required by law or for security or technical reasons.
