We've tried to make this site as simple to use as possible, so it should be fairly self-explanatory. Note that you must read and agree to the rules and conditions before placing a listing or using this site. Finding someone.Due to NZ Privacy laws you can search or 'reverse search' only for information which is alreadyin the public domain, or where the parties involved have given approval for this. We have added a 'yes/no' button so users can allow or disallow publication of their information, thus allowing data to be on file for emergency purposes, while remaining invisible to the public. Another 'yes/no' button will allow or block 'reverse searching' of phone numbers. Default is NO. Note that we can NOT provide anyone with information about another person or their number under any circumstances. If such information is necessary, contact the Police. To find someone, you can look through all the listings if you wish. Just click the 'Alphabetical' button to see many pages of alphabetical listings. That's the hard and slow way to find anything. While it's probably more fun than trying to read the tiny print in the already-out-of-date-when printed phone book, you'll find it's much easier to use the 'Search mode.' Click the "Main Search" button, then to see all listings in an area, say Auckland, type Auckland in the "Search by Location" button, leaving the Name area blank. Now Click Search. Both the Suburb and City data will be searched and any results displayed. You can also type in the suburb name too (say Mount Eden). That will help cut it down a lot, but it's not the easiest way to find anything. The easy way? Type the Surname or Business name you want to find into the Name panel. Type the City, Area or Suburb name into the Location panel. Click Search. Now select the correct result from those shown. If you get no results at all, try a different spelling or a partial name. Of course if the details aren't in our database, they won't show up. Can YOUR information be found when needed? Are YOU listed? Getting Listed.There are two types of listing.1: A free, basic, one line only entry, showing a Name, Address, and phone number, similar to what you'll see when looking in a paper phone book. 2: A paid listing. There is a once only payment for a permanent listing. This allows you to have colors, like a Bold name on a yellow background with selectable colours or layouts for the Name and Description areas, plus 'user-clickable' Website and Email addresses. Some example listings are here. Your listing once placed is permanent. It will be removed only by you, or us at your request, or if in breach of our rules, New Zealand Law, good taste etc. We reserve the right at all times to modify, remove, or refuse any listing. You can place your own listing by entering the details online yourself, using a computer, tablet or Smartphone. If that doesn't work, text or email us the details (see 'Contact Us' above) and we can do the entry or updates for you. Your entry will consist at a minimum, of a Name, City, and Phone number, those items being required. You can also enter your Street address, Suburb, and Home Phone number if you so wish, but for privacy and security reasons these are not compulsory. If not required, don't enter anything you don't want shown online. If you enter your details online, you must also provide your Email address for us to contact you, and for verification purposes, however note that for privacy reasons email addresses are NOT shown in a Personal listing. If you want your Email address shown you must use a paid listing and enter it yourself somewhere. Paid listings allow you to have a BOLD name on a yellow background panel, plus your Email and Website addresses will be made 'live' and clickable, allowing users to go directly to your website, or send you an Email. You also get a 200 character Description area to promote yourself. You can see samples by clicking here. If you enter your listing online.... A confirming Email will be sent to the email address you provide. You should reply to this promptly, to confirm to us that you are in fact the true owner of that email address, that the listing details are correct, and that you did enter or approve the listing yourself, rather than someone else posting false information. Provided you always use the same device your listing was entered with, you will have 24 hour online access to your listing to make any alterations, or to even delete it. The Email address and IP address of the poster, and some other information is recorded and stored in our database. This allows us to trace and take action against any person placing false information etc. NONE of your information is released to other parties. If you choose a paid type listing with colors and links enabled, you must pay any fees due before that listing will be fully activated. Until then it will appear as a 'free' type one line black and white listing only, and certain details will not be shown. To avoid offensive, fake, or misleading entries, any listing (or changes made to one) will need to approved by our staff before ythat listing fully appears. Until then the listing itself, it's phone numbers or some of the other details might not be displayed. Any information we record other than for listing purposes, is for security purposes only. No information is given out except where required by law, or for emergencies. Please Remember: We are not mind readers. We don't know if your number or details change, so please update your listing promptly yourself, or contact us to do it for you. Thanks. |
