'Urgent' SMSs from One NZ about the 2G and 3G shutdown, and how I won't be able to make emergency calls after the 23rd.
Iʼve been getting these messages since the end of 2025 and none of the predictions have come to pass. #OneNZ
Imagine making this family's life so much harder, just because you can.
Large companies have all the
power.
#OneNZ - Never use them if this is how they treat customers.

Still canʼt access @Mojeek on #OneNZ. The DNS has always been sus, and with Christmas maybe no one is keeping an eye on it.
Anyone else on #OneNZ and can’t get to @Mojeek? There are other sites unreachable, too, but I thought I’d ask about this one since it’s one of the better known …

A week or so ago, the little 3G symbol on my phone turned into HD. Iʼm guessing this is 4G? If so, it looks like the switch-over was a success. And none of the dire warnings designed to get us to buy new phones came to pass. #OneNZ
In my blog
One NZ keeps changing its tune about the 3G shutdown

Scaremongering SMSs from One NZ saying that I might not be able to make emergency calls on my phone. This is a likely ploy to drum up sales. For most of the year, they claimed I would not be able to make any calls after the 3G shutdown. One NZ is like the boy who cried wolf.
Sounds like old bollocks to me. Am I to believe that 111 calls do not work on standard cellphone frequencies? #OneNZ #CryWolf
Your phone may lose network functions It still looks like your phone connects to 4G calling and data, but it hasn’t been tested by us (as it wasn’t sold by us). This means we can’t guarantee it to be able to make 111 emergency calls after December and we don’t know how it will work overseas after. If you have any concerns about this, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to an approved phone as soon as possible.
For the first time ever, #OneNZ admits that my phone can handle 4G. After about a year of repeated SMSs and voice recordings saying that I was in danger of losing connection once 3G shuts down. Still scaremongering about 111 calls, which they know and we know is absolute shite.
The SIM card status on my phone, showing that the mobile network type it can handle is 5G_NSA.
I hope #OneNZ switches on 5G in this area before getting rid of 3G. There is evidence a signal exists, but little evidence of its continued availability. And I know my phone is capable.

SMSs from One NZ saying their 3G network is shutting down and going on about phone upgrades.
#OneNZ (the telco, not the fascist group) keeps delaying my calls by telling me that the 3G network is shutting down, texting me each time, and saying I should get a new phone. This is not going to happen. The simple solution is to stop connecting my 5G phone […]

The first ad was interesting, but now I no longer care about that kid who went to Scotland to find his birth family. #OneNZ #TVC #NZ #Aotearoa
Thanks One NZ for telling me to suck eggs on a fault with your own system. My DOB might start with a 19 but I’m not tech illiterate! #onenz
I’m sure this why old people are grumpy! 🙄🤯

Vodafone/ONE NZ are you kidding me?
I cancelled all services a long time ago but I keep getting a monthly invoice:
* Last month's balance: $0.00
* This month's charges: $0.00
* Total due: $0.00 Includes $0.00 GST
🤦♂️
Get your systems in order.

En Nouvelle-Zélande, #OneNZ est le premier MNO au monde à lancer un service national permettant sans frais l'envoi et la réception de #SMS même sans réseau mobile, en utilisation les satellites de #Starlink. Bonne chose pour résorber les zones blanches difficiles d'accès.

En Nouvelle-Zélande, #ComCom intente une action en justice contre l'opérateur #OneNZ qui promeut une couverture mobile à 100% grâce aux services de #Starlink. En effet, cela ne concerne notamment à ce stade que les #SMS et #MMS, ce qui est vu comme trompeur… À suivre.
