Long time 2Degrees mobile customer, but haven't used roaming for a while.

 

Now been overseas a little while and just got an alert about my spend limit being approached. I check my bill and I am being charged $7/day - not expected.

 

Reviewing the 2degrees website it seems this is their new package, but I was never notified or got any 2Degrees txt message on arrival overseas. However, I understood the $7 was only if the plan was used e.g calls / outgoing SMS / data. Most of my days have zero usage but are charged for. Is there any way to find out more...I have sent a message to 2Degrees but suspect I may be waiting a while for an answer.

 

Potentially relevant is my setup; iPhone 11 Pro with 2Degrees physical SIM (mobile data turned off) and overseas eSIM (mobile data turned on). I'm using mobile data extensively and it is coming from the eSIM, and I haven't been making call or SMS on most of the days I have been charged.

 

Any ideas how to resolve this would be great, or point our my (mis)understandings!

Hey GZ!

Hope you’re all well.

 

Just wanted to give you an update on this: it looks like there was an error in our internal process that was causing accounts to not be credited when they should. We are currently going through everything from mid- November 2020 and will apply the backlog credits in cycles.

 

This should happen automatically however if you do want to talk to the Customer Care team you can give us a call on 0800 022 022 or head over to Facebook or Twitter and send us a private message.

Thanks,
Sarah

KiwiSurfer:

 

Any timeframe on the refunds/credits? I don't see any on my account yet. Is it meant to be done already or only at the end of the billing cycle etc?

 

 

Just to add that the refund appeared on my bill so no trouble there.
