Safe TXT

You're heading home. It's dark. You're alone. And no one knows where you are. So TXT us for free so everyone can know you're safe.

With Safe TXT, you can TXT us your location and your plans, and we'll keep them on file. Should anything happen, the Police will gain a valuable lead on your last known whereabouts – and a valuable head start in finding you.

How to use Safe TXT

Whenever you'd like the security of someone knowing where you are, just TXT us free on 7233 (SAFE) and tell us where you are and where you're going.

For example:

  • Heading off on the Mt William walking track, expect to be back later today
  • Leaving Viaduct, walking home to Ponsonby up Franklin Rd
  • Checking in at the Hungry Bat Backpackers in Waikopapai

Each TXT is recorded, together with the time and date. If anything happens, we can let the Police know.

With Vodafone, you can even use the service overseas. (Roaming TXT charges will apply, and you must be using a Vodafone New Zealand SIM in your mobile.)

Remember, if you feel unsafe call 111 (or the local emergency number, if you're overseas) immediately and ask for the Police.

So programme 7233 into your mobile, and be sure you and your friends TXT in your movements when you're on your own. It helps make our communities a safer place.
