Information about your new Meridian account

Your account is now on our new system. Here’s everything you need to know to get started.

About your new account

What changes can I expect to see?

Here’s what’s new

  • You’ve got a new account number: Your new account number will start with “A-”. But don’t worry about updating your payment reference – we'll still match up your payments just fine.
  • Fresh new look: Your emails, bills and online account have had a makeover to make things simpler and easier to use! We can’t wait to see what you think.
  • New contact info: We're now using a new email address for service stuff like bills and account updates: hello@hub.meridian.co.nz. Pop it in your contacts so you don’t miss anything from us.

How do I access my new Meridian account?

You can login into your account on our new system through your web browser or through our new mobile app.

Here’s how to get started

Log in - no password needed

Enter the email address that is registered to your account. We’ll email you a one-time log-in link, open it to get started. (The link expires after a short time; you can request a new one anytime.)

You can use your account in the mobile app or in a web browser on your phone, tablet or computer.

Now that your account’s on our new system, the old app and online portal will no longer work for you.

Helpful tips:

  • Use the same email address that’s on your account.
  • Open the link on the same device you requested the link from.
  • Can’t see the email? Check junk/spam or request a new link.

Why can’t I access my new account?

If your account has not yet been moved on to our new system, you will not be able to login on the new mobile app or online portal. 

You’ll still be able to log in to your account as normal through our website or if you already have the Meridian app downloaded, you can continue to use this.

How do I know if my account is on the new system?

You've already been moved if you've received an email confirming that your account is now on our new system. This email was sent to you as soon as the move was completed. Click here to see how to login to your account on the new system.

If you haven't received an email notifying you that your account has been moved to our new system, don't worry! We're still working on migrating all our customers. You'll get an email from us as soon as your account is moved. We're in this together, and we're making progress on getting everyone updated. Your patience is appreciated, and we'll be in touch soon.

Have my account or rates been changed?

Your rates and plan are the same! You’ve got a new account number and a fresh new experience. Nothing else has been changed. 

Will I still be able to do everything I used to?

We’re rolling out features gradually, so some functionality may not be available yet. If there’s anything that's missing, feel free to let us know using this SurveyMonkey form or by sending us an email to hello@hub.meridian.co.nz.

Can I switch back to the old account?

Nope, we’ve moved your new account on to our new system which here to stay, and it’s built to be better, faster, and future-proof.

Do I need to do anything else?

If you currently pay by credit or debit card you may need to re-enter your credit/debit card details on your account. We'll handle everything else for you.
