Our thoughts are with the communities affected by Cyclone Gita. To help our customers stay close to family and friends, we're crediting all landline and mobile calls and texts to Samoa and Tonga from 9am Tuesday, 13 February (NZT) until 9am Thursday 15 February.
High volumes of calling could affect the performance of mobile networks there and make it even harder for families to get in touch with loved ones. We’d recommend texting for the time being, as this is a lighter load for networks to manage.
