How hard is it to cancel 2degrees?
2degrees scores 45/100 (grade D) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the NZ — a poorly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via phone.
Cancellation of Pay Monthly mobile or broadband plans at 2degrees requires calling 0800 022 022 (or 200 from a 2degrees mobile); no online, email, or app-based cancellation is currently available, though 2degrees states they are working to add self-serve options. Charges apply through the next billing date with no mid-cycle proration — timing cancellation just before the billing date is advised to avoid paying for an extra month. Broadband customers may be liable for recouped plan discounts received at signup and must return any modem and Wi-Fi extenders. Power plan cancellations are initiated by switching providers, who contact 2degrees directly.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
