2degrees (Home Broadband Plans)
Two Degrees Mobile Limited (as they are officially known) is New Zealand's newest full service telecommunications provider. 2degrees launched in 2009, significantly lowering the cost of mobile for Kiwis, but they've actually been around a little while longer.
Back in the 90s a visionary group of Maori challenged the crown through the Treaty of Waitangi and won the rights to 3G spectrum. Despite financial and regulatory adversity a Maori Trust (Hautaki) was established with the challenge of launching New Zealand's third mobile network.
Since then, they've been busy. 2degrees have the backing of a unique partnership of international and Kiwi investors that have enabled them to build a brand new mobile network, helping them to cover 97% of the places Kiwis live and work. In March 2015 2degrees also acquired NZ's fourth largest ISP, and now offer broadband services as well as mobile to Kiwis across the country.

Prepaid Plans
A 2degrees prepaid plan is perfect for those who are looking for a ‘no strings attached’ type of mobile phone plan. Also referred to as a ‘pay as you go’ plan, prepaid plans requires you to top up/add credit to your phone before you can start calling, texting or using data.
2degrees have a range of carryover combos, talk packs, data packs and roaming packs available on their prepaid plans. With their carryover combos - which includes unlimited calls, texts and 10G in data - you can call Aussie at no extra cost, and your carryover data and minutes last up to a year!
Pay Monthly Plans
Pay monthly 2degrees mobile plans are perfect for those who are looking for a ‘mobile phone bundle’ that includes calls, texts and data. Known also as a ‘postpaid plan’, 2degrees pay monthly plans lets you pay at the end of the month in exchange for your phone bundle.
2degrees are currently offering new customers 50% off monthly mobile plans over $40 for the first three months! As well as that, the more people you add to a mobile “Pool Plan”, the cheaper it becomes - a perfect option for families who are wanting to stay connected.
Unlimited Data Plans
For those who regularly run out of data each month, a 2degrees unlimited data plan is an ideal option for you. 2degrees have launched unlimited data plans that lets you tether or hotspot, and team up with friends or family to pay as little as $40 per month each!
2degrees unlimited data plans come with an unlimited data allowance - with maximum speed available for up to 40G - and offer hotspotting at no additional cost. If you’re a 2degrees mobile and broadband customer, you’ll also enjoy a $10 discount on your broadband bill each month.
Rollover Data Plans
2degrees over rollover data plans - also known as ‘carryover data’ - for both prepaid and pay monthly mobile phone plans. This type of plan allows your unused data or minutes to be carried over to the next month - and lasts for up to a year.
2degrees’ rollover data plans start from $30 a month on a pay monthly plan, or from $19 a month on a prepaid plan. If you connect 4 people on the same pay monthly plan, you’ll each only pay $25.63 per person for 10G of carryover data a month!

Frequently Asked Questions
How fast is ADSL broadband?
ADSL broadband has been in NZ for a long time. The speed of ADSL broadband depends on the quality of your copper lines. It can give you download speeds of up to 24Mbps and upload speeds of 1Mbps. However, the national average ADSL speed is about 10Mbps download and 1Mbps upload. This should be enough for basic things like emailing, checking social networks and watching bad quality videos online.
How much faster is VDSL broadband?
VDSL is much faster than ADSL. You could potentially get download speeds of up to 70Mbps and upload speeds up to 10Mbps. This depends on how far away you are from the cabinet (the closer you are, the better the speeds), your line quality and any interference in your house.
How fast are the Ultra Fibre plans?
Fibre 30 should deliver you the Fibre speeds up to 30mbps download speeds and 10mbps upload speeds. Ultra Fast Fibre 100 should deliver Fibre speeds up to 100mbps download and 20mbps upload. Ultra Fibre 200 can provide 200Mbps download and 20Mbps upload. Ultra Fast Fibre Gigabit can provide up to 1000Mbps download and up to 500Mbps upload.
Please note, your actual speeds can get affected by various factors, such as NZ and overseas networks, the type of modem you have, internal home wiring and potential environmental factors.
Should I choose Ultra Fast Fibre Broadband?
If you can get fibre broadband at your address, you should definitely get fibre connected to your house. This is the future and government is spending significant amounts to bring it to New Zealand. Additionally, your speeds will be faster and more consistent. It’s worth it.
Standard Fibre Installation
Most of the time your fibre installation will be standard. It will require a technician from your Local Fibre Company, such as Chorus. When they arrive, they will make sure to explain everything to you and that you understand what is required. The work will not begin unless you're happy with what's proposed.
The fibre installation work includes the following:
- Installing the fibre cable from the street through to your home.
- Installing and connecting the necessary equipment outside and inside your home.
- Making sure the fibre service is running.
- Disconnecting the copper broadband connection to your home.
- Minimise any impact on grassed areas. If hard surfaces are affected, they will be resealed.
Non-standard installation
If your house is more than 200m from the Fibre access point on the street, you will need this type of installation. Additionally, if you decide to install your fibre modem in a different place from the ONT and need additional wiring as a result.
The Local Fibre Company, such as Chorus, will let you know if your home needs a non-standard installation and the cost before they start any work.
