Important things to know
- Home wireless landline is only available in certain 4G coverage areas. 4G coverage isn't available everywhere. We also have copper and fibre landline plans available in many areas. Fibre is only available where copper or wireless are not.
- You may only use your Spark wireless modem to receive the service at the installed location. If you use it at another location we may suspend, disconnect or restrict your home wireless landline service without notice. If you move house, let us know beforehand so we can check the options available at your new house and get you set up for your move.
- The Spark wireless modem requires mains power. This home wireless landline comes with a power back up, also known as an Uninterrupted Power Source (UPS). If there's a power failure the Spark wireless modem will continue to work for up to four hours. The handsets require batteries to work. The cordless phones we supply have rechargeable batteries in them which you might need to replace from time to time. Make sure there are always batteries in your phones so they'll keep working in a power outage.
- If you have a monitored alarm that uses your landline, you’ll need to update it to a wireless option. Most medical alarm providers offer wireless monitoring solutions. It's important that you arrange this with your provider.
- Home wireless landline doesn't use a copper connection or phone jackpoints in your home. You can use portable cordless phones if you need multiple phones in your home. These are available from Spark.
- *We have a Fair Use policy in place to make sure people don’t take advantage of our great calling rates. This is based on the average of what most people use in a home setting. If we think you’re going too far over this, we’ll get in touch and ask you to keep an eye on things. If you don’t cut down your usage, we might need to charge you, or even remove the service from your account. The following uses would be considered excessive:
- Business use
- Automated call messaging
- Monitoring services
- Broadcast fax
- Outbound call centres.
- Call any national landline for $0.24 per minute and never pay more than $3 for up to two hours per call. After two hours, our standard rates apply. National calling applies to direct dial voice calls from your home line to landlines in New Zealand and excludes:
- Calling cards
- 059
- 0161
- Premium numbers (0900 and any international equivalent)
- Calls made via Home 0800 or international 0800
- Call any New Zealand mobile for $0.39 per minute and never pay more than $5 when you talk for up to two hours per call. After two hours, our standard rates apply. This doesn’t include calls to overseas visitors roaming in New Zealand.
