If you have My Favourites on your mobile

Please note that My Favourites is not available on the new Smart Prepaid plan.

You can choose to either:

  • Stay on (or move to) our 69c/min Pay As You Go plan, with up to three Telecom My Favourites numbers, or
  • Give up My Favourites to enjoy our new 44c/min rate on the Smart Prepaid plan.

If you use My Favourites already, you should receive a text message from us advising what your best option appears to be, based on your calling history.

If you have My Favourites and you'd like to move to our new Smart Prepaid plan to enjoy 44c a minute calling to any NZ network, please call *333 and follow the prompts.

If you use My Favourites but are on an older 89c/min plan, you'll still save by moving to our 69c/min Pay As You Go plan. To do this you should also call *333 and listen for the appropriate message.
