One NZ is shutting down its 3G network starting Jan. 20, 2026, to make way for faster 4G and 5G services.
One NZ has started phasing out its 3G network, beginning in Dunedin on January 20, 2026, to free spectrum for faster 4G and 5G services.
The rollout will continue across New Zealand through March, with all sites now supporting 4G and many upgraded for 5G.
Most users are unaffected, but those on older devices or certain smart gadgets may lose service, including emergency calling.
Customers are urged to check compatibility by texting "3G" to 550 and can get affordable 4G phones starting at NZD $39.
The move follows similar closures by other carriers and reflects a global shift toward modern mobile networks.
