The NZ Compare Awards are back... and we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time returning as an in-person celebration with a Gala Awards night hosted by Mike McRoberts in Auckland on December 1st 2022.

Recognising excellence, leadership and innovation in the New Zealand utility sectors, the NZ Compare Awards are back for the 6th year and in response to consumer demand, we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time.

As the boundaries between the utility industries continue to blur the organisers have responded to growing demand to increase the categories and industries celebrated by the NZ Compare Awards and will now recognise excellence and achievement within New Zealand’s BROADBAND, ENERGY and MOBILE sectors for the first time.

Award categories are consumer driven and informed by the 300,000 Kiwis who use NZ Compare websites each month. Winning carries real gravitas with the Kiwi consumer and the awards represent an opportunity to be confident in the talent and vision your company has worked so hard towards. This significant event will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services across these essential industries.

The NZ Compare Awards are supported by a wide range of companies including Movinghub, Vector Metering, Chorus, realestate.co.nz and Neighbourly. The prestigious awards will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services in their industries. With a range of different categories including best home and mobile provider, best customer support, fastest service, best rural provider and best broadband innovation.

Winning an NZ Compare Award depends on a combination of criteria. These include consumer surveys and reviews on the NZ Compare websites and decisions from our expert judging panel.

"Judged by an independent panel of New Zealand experts and presented at our gala awards event, the NZ Compare Awards provide a unique stage on which we recognize and reward the achievements of the New Zealand utility sectors." said Gavin Male, CEO of NZ Compare.

So what do you think? Give a shout out to your favourite utility provider here - not just for doing their job... we want to hear about those that go above and beyond! Who should be a winner?

Hi

My charity NZ Gifts of Love and Strength has launched a pick me up appeal for those affected by the devastating floods in the Upper South Island.

We know from our appeals for Mid Canterbury and Westport / Buller floods the importance of receiving something after all the volunteer helpers have left and you are dealing still with the clean up and insurance etc. Stress is very high. We want to ensure they do not feel like they have been forgotten about.

We have got Lions Host Club Nelson and Lions Havelock dispersing to those most greatly affected in approximately 3 - 4 weeks time.

SVA will be collecting the following items ONLY from our collection points:

A card handmade or bought ( do not seal envelope) write a nice message or even write a poem on a piece of paper it does not have to cost a lot of money. It's the thought that counts.

A small packet of lollies , or packet of individual packets of lollies or chocolate

A small flat knitted or sewn handmade heart/worry worm etc that will fit into a card envelope.

Drop off points are :
all New World Supermarkets
Super Value Lyttelton
Paper Plus New Brighton
Rangi-Ruru Boarding House
Silver Boutique Bishopdale
Dominator Doors
TC Transcontinental (airport business hub)
St Albans Community Centre
Hornby Community Centre
PIPS charity Wainoni

We would love schools, retirement homes, craft groups to be involved.

Please email us on giftsofloveandstrength@gmail.com if you would like to be involved.

The pictures are our first donation from a family that came on at Preston's New World and a good example of what we are trying to give those affected by the mud /floods.
