Other things to note:

• With Apple Watch you can have one call on your phone, and a different call on your watch if both devices are connected to the cellular network and one is on Wi-fo calling.

Daily Roaming charges can be activated by using either your phone or watch. However, you will only get charged the Daily Roaming price once (not per device).

You can only have one watch/OneNumber add-on per eligible Pay Monthly plan. You can connect your two watches to separate mobile plans. For example, if you use one plan for business calls and another plan for personal calls you can have one watch linked to your business Pay Monthly plan and one watch to your personal Pay Monthly plan. You'll need to follow the steps to activate with each watch separately.

Your watch will automatically work with any new mobile number. You don't need to do anything.

Otherwise, call us 777 or stop by a One NZ store.

Still being billed for OneNumber after you cancelled it? If you have OneNumber active on more than one mobile plan, check you cancelled OneNumber for the right plan. Otherwise, call us on 0800 800 021 or visit one of our One NZ stores.

If your watch is connected to your business account number, you won't be able to pay for OneNumber yourself. This is because OneNumber is billed with the Pay Monthly mobile plan it's linked to. Reach out to the My One NZ account holder of your mobile plan to find a solution.

Got two mobile plans on your phone - one for work and one for personal use? Making sure you buy OneNumber for the correct mobile plan is easy. Simply follow the prompts in your watch app and select which mobile number you want to activate OneNumber for.

OneNumber employs encryption and secure authentication protocols to ensure the privacy and security of your calls and messages. We recommend you keep your devices updated with the latest software updates and follow best practices for device security to enhance protection.

Every SIM has its own phone number which in turn has its own mobile plan. And many phones offer dual SIM capability, meaning you could have two SIMs in one phone. Often, one will be an eSIM and the other will be a physical SIM. You can use both SIMs on one phone to make and receive calls and texts.

Most dual SIM phones are Dual SIM Dual Standby (or DSDS). If your phone supports DSDS, you can assign each SIM to voice, data and/or texts. To discover how to turn a SIM on or off, check your device's user guide.

You can only use one network at a time. For instance, if you are on a call on one line, you can't get a call on the other SIM at the same time.

You can purchase a new prepaid connection on eSIM online. Also, if you are an existing One NZ prepaid customer you can walk into a OneNZ store and swap your physical SIM for an eSIM.

Tablet plans aren't available to purchase online. However, you can go into a One NZ store to purchase a plan and opt for an eSIM.

You can get a One NZ eSIM on any phone that supports eSIM. But we can't guarantee eSIM will be supported if your device is locked by a telco in another country. Come into a One NZ store and we'll help you out.

Once your eSIM has been activated, you can remove the physical SIM card, which can be reused in another phone. You'll need to have a new plan connected to the physical SIM as it can't share the plan with your eSIM.

Your eSIM itself cannot be moved. But you can transfer your mobile number on an eSIM to a different mobile network through the porting process. You'll need to get a fresh QR code from your new mobile network and set up a new profile on your eSIM or new physical SIM.

If you have two mobile numbers, they don't both need to be on the same network.

If you want to move your eSIM profile to another device, you can simply reuse a QR code that you have previously scanned.

• Make sure you're connected to Wifi (not phone data)
• Delete the eSIM profile from your current phone
• Leave your current phone for a few minutes
• Scan the QR code you already have onto the new phone.

You should then be able to add the eSIM to your new phone.

Make sure your eSIM is enabled on your phone settings. If your new eSIM card has not started working after 2 hours:

• Ensure the new SIM is in your phone/tablet
• Turn your phone/tablet off and on again.

If it's still not working, call us on 0800 800 021.

If you bought your phone online and chose eSIM when ordering, we emailed the QR code to the email address you gave us:

• Double-check the email address you gave us, or
• Check your spam folder.

If you have an eligible phone that you didn't buy from One NZ:

• Check with us, or
• Come into a One NZ store for a QR code

If you're having trouble scanning the eSIM QR code:

• Make sure you're connected to Wi-fi or a hotspot
• Do not scan the QR code through your camera app - go through the phone settings
• Check you're using the QR code emailed to you when you placed your order
• Try scanning the QR code again.

If the eSIM profile download fails partway through, restart your device and try downloading the profile again.

Some people find calls drop or will not connect, after activating eSIM.

• Take out your physical SIM card or set the eSIM as the primary profile
• Check you have a physical SIM card and an eSIM (Dual SIM). If both are turned off, the call will fail.
• Make sure the profile you want to use for calling is turned on and set as the primary profile.

Is your phone is lost or stolen? Call us now on 0800 800 021 (+64 9 355 2007 if you are overseas) to block your old SIM. You can get a new eSIM for your new device from any One NZ store.
