Premium Text Services.

What they are.

Premium Text services are offered by a number of independent content providers in New Zealand and overseas. You can use premium text services to buy ringtones, wallpapers and get a variety of other things delivered to your mobile. Generally, any number you see published in a paper or on the TV that has three or four digits is a Premium Text number and will be priced differently. The cost for using a Premium Text service should always be made clear in the advert.

Who provides them.

Premium Text services are managed by other companies and 2degrees doesn’t accept responsibility for them – beyond making sure that they comply with our strict content standards.

If you come across a Premium Messaging service that doesn't work with your 2degrees mobile, that's because we haven't signed them up just yet. But don't worry, you won't be charged for that. Just one note, we’re still working on getting TXT-a-park up and running. We’ll update you as soon as we’ve got it sorted.

Here's a list of all the Premium Messaging Partners and services that we currently support.
