2degrees Welcome

Except for their brand image they've released very few information so far. Those who are interested should rather have a look at Forum: 2degrees instead of 2degree's empty website.

It launched yesterday (on the 5th)

There seem to have been teething problems for some customers signing up, though despite the headlines the network says not many were affected

It seems the regulator didn't like a leak about the termination rates deal between Vodafone and 2degrees

NZ regulator censors Vodafone leak: News - Communications - ZDNet Australia

and there are MVNO arrangements about to appear

Unfortunately it doesn't work the other way around
Nothing received from Wind ITA , Movistar and Personal Argentina

So far only Austalia Vodafone has been received

If there is anyone else that would like a test to NZ 2degrees send me a PM
with a number to try

The lack of bundled SMS and Voice offers won't be attractive to heavy users !!
