We’ve been privileged to help Kiwis get the essentials needed to work, study, and stay connected. It’s led to huge demand and some orders are taking longer to deliver. We’d really like to apologise to the customers who’ve experienced these delays.

To help get it sorted faster we’ve quadrupled our Customer Care team, and expanded our order fulfilment network so we can get thousands more orders delivered each day. Plus our remote Tech Solutions service will be free until May 11 to lend customers a hand with technology advice or setting up.

Thanks for your patience, everyone. We’re getting there.

Counties Manukau Health to move to telephone appointments.

We are now switching to telephone outpatient clinic consultations from healthcare providers at Middlemore Hospital and the other clinic sites such as Manukau, Botany or Pukekohe clinics.

Please do not come to clinic appointments unless we contact you by phone.
You should only come to your outpatient clinic appointment if you have received a telephone call advising you to come.

Patients who have not been advised to come to the clinic will be sent a text or we will telephone you to advise an approximate time we will call – for example, sometime between 10-11am or 2-3pm.

However, if the doctor, nurse or therapist decides a face to face consultation is required, this will be arranged with staff wearing the appropriate clothing.

These telephone consultations are designed to keep everyone safe from
potentially catching the Coronavirus (Covid-19).
