Talk2Me in South Taranaki

South Taranaki is home for us. Our office is on Ketemarae Road in Hawera, and our team lives and works in the district, so we know the towns, the rural roads and the places where a connection can get tricky. That local knowledge shapes the advice we give, from Patea to Opunake.

Phone numbers and calling in South Taranaki

South Taranaki businesses and homes use 06 numbers, and Hawera lines are typically in the (06) 278 range. With Talk2Me you can keep the local number you already have, or take a new local number, and answer it on a desk phone, a cordless handset or an app on your mobile.

What is internet calling (VoIP)?

VoIP carries your calls over the internet instead of an old copper line. If you already pay for internet, making calls this way is often a lot cheaper, and it unlocks features the old network never could. Keep your local 06 number, answer it on a handset or an app, and get help from a team in Hawera rather than an overseas call centre.
