Ready to unlock your 2Degrees device?
Start with ESNDoctorHow to find the IMEI of a blacklisted 2Degrees phone
Even if it's not working on your 2Degrees mobile network, you can still easily find your IMEI number to clean a reported device. Since the IMEI is embedded in the phone, you have several ways to find it!
Original Packaging
Look at the original packaging box or receipt, as the IMEI is usually printed there.
Physical Device
Look for it on the SIM tray or under the battery, as there should be a printed label.
Start your unlock process as soon as possible once you have your IMEI!
Is 2Degrees connected to international IMEI databases?
That's correct; since 2Degrees is part of the Telecommunications Carriers Forum (TCF) with other network providers, they have a direct connection with the GSMA database. Even though not all phones get reported internationally, 2Degrees still has the possibility to inhibit the connection to any network worldwide as long as they are part of the GSMA. If you want to make sure that's the case, you can use an IMEI checker and see if, besides the regular blacklist, you also have an international lock.
How often is the 2Degrees blacklist updated?
The TCF database (which includes 2Degrees, One NZ, and Spark) is updated daily by all major mobile network operators in New Zealand. Additionally, when a device is reported lost or stolen, it can take up to 48 hours to be added to the blacklist and blocked across all NZ networks. For devices tied to fraudulent activity, this process can take up to 120 days since they need to investigate and ensure the phone is associated with the fraud charges or not.
What to do if your IMEI is blacklisted by mistake on 2Degrees
Unlocking my phone with 2Degrees will make it work overseas?
Yes, since you basically unlock a phone from the blacklist using the 2Degrees service, your phone should work on any international network as long as you don't have a SIM-locked phone. Additionally, you have to make sure your smartphone is compatible with another network and SIM card, as that will affect its usage and the plans or data you will have while traveling.
- Works internationally after blacklist removal
- Must not be SIM-locked
- Check network compatibility
Common mistakes when trying to unlock a blacklisted 2Degrees phone
Since your phone is locked and you are looking for a way to reestablish your 2Degrees network, there are some common mistakes you need to avoid if you want to make this process easy and efficient. Keep in mind that this list can also apply to other tools or services like ESNDoctor, so it is good to check them out before you try to unlock your 2Degrees phone:
Network Lock vs Blacklist Confusion
Don't confuse network lock with blacklist: unlocking a phone won't fix a blacklist issue.
Wrong Ownership Claims
Trying to unblock a phone you don't really own: Only the original account holder can request blacklist removal with official methods.
Skipping IMEI Status Check
Not checking the IMEI status before buying a second-hand phone: Buying a blacklisted phone can leave you with limited options if you want to unlock it.
Missing Proof of Ownership
Failing to provide proof of ownership: Remember that 2Degrees requires documents like a receipt and ID to reestablish the connection to any New Zealand network.
Expecting Instant Results
Don't assume it will be fixed instantly: This process can take several days, meaning that the restriction will still be active during that time.
Testing Other NZ Carriers
Inserting a SIM from another NZ carrier: Blacklisted phones are blocked on all NZ networks, not just 2Degrees.

Yes, a blacklist history can reduce your phone’s resale value. Even if it’s no longer blacklisted, buyers may see it as risky or unreliable and may not be interested in it.
All mobile devices are unblacklisted by default; unless something happens to them, you don’t need to worry about random reports when buying a new phone from official retailers or a 2degrees store.
