Kiwibank innovations this week: Secure Mail and Mobile Banking
This week looks good for us Kiwibank customers - a few new things have been introduced.
Secure Mail
Too afraid to talk over the web to banks about your problems using conventional email?
Kiwibank has introduced Secure Mail:
Here's the contents of that introduction message:
At Kiwibank we take internet banking security seriously - that's why we've introduced a new secure way for you to contact us using Secure Mail.
What is Secure Mail?
It's a totally secure, free service that lets you email us through internet banking.
You can ask us in private about your accounts or anything else you want to know - without having to pick up a phone or visit your local Kiwibank.
How it works:
- As you may have noticed, when you log in to internet banking, Secure Mail shows on your Welcome Page.
- To ask a question, click "create your message", type in your question, then send
- You'll receive a reply within two business days in your Secure Mail inbox on your Internet Banking Welcome Page.
Secure Mail is protected by the internet banking security firewalls, so the information you send and receive is completely secure.
Mobile Banking on the Web
Their mobile site has been improved to include Windows Mobile and mobile browser users as well as more improvements to the exisiting iPhone presentation like enhanced landscape views.

Vodafone NZ releases new iPhone plans
Well, here we are again. Staring once more into the abyss that is the iPhone section of Vodafone's website. Only this time, rather than bang our heads against something sturdy, we give a low grunt and move on to something far more important.
Why the sudden change? Why am I writing it this way? The answer to the latter may never be known but the answer to the former is quite simple: The new iPhone plans are out!
Yes, Vodafone has released the new iPhone plans for New Zealand customers. However, is there any improvement?
From what I’ve seen so far, the answer is yes. But have they fixed it enough?
Well, the $250 1GB plan has been scrapped as an iPhone exclusive plan for one thing (now avaliable for any handset), replaced with the lowly 500mb $130 plan. Obviously there are now four plans, as opposed to three (two after a few weeks).
However, the greatest improvement overall is the addition of a $40 plan. However, at that price you'll have to settle for only 20 included minutes, 100 included texts and a super small 250mb data cap. But for someone who isn't likely to be wanting to catch the latest 'will it blend' video on the move, this plan will be a godsend.
Of course, a few additional minutes would've been nice.
Well, at least the $40 plan phone is subsidized a fair bit.
Anyway, enough from me. Here are the plans:
