Dear Felix

 

Thank you for your email.

It has been forwarded to the appropriate staff member, who will respond if
necessary.

Your RealMe username and password can be used on various participating
websites, saving you from having to remember different usernames and
passwords for each service you use. You can find which government services
are using the RealMe login service by going to www.realme.govt.nz
<http://www.i.govt.nz> and selecting What’s RealMe then Where can I use
it?

 

Need to change your RealMe details? You can do this at any time, just go
to www.realme.govt.nz <http://www.i.govt.nz/> and click on ‘Manage my
RealMe’ select ‘Manage my Login’  and log in.

 

From the ‘Manage my login’ page you can change:

·      your password

·      your username

·      your security questions and answers,

·      and more.

 

If you use a RealMe service that sends your mobile phone a security code
by TXT message, the 'Manage login feature allows you to change or
de-register your mobile phone number.

 

You can also change your email address and contact phone number here.

 

Keep your RealMe username and password safe, check the usage of your
account regularly, don't share your account details with anyone and don't
write down your password anywhere.

 

The 'Manage your RealMe login' feature lets you view where and when your
RealMe login has been used. If you think someone has used your account
without your knowledge, you should contact us straight away.

 

Need help with your RealMe login? You can contact us at the RealMe Help
Desk 24 hours a day, 7 days a week:

Dear Mr Lee

 

I refer to your email of 1 July 2013, regarding how much businesses are
charged to confirm their customers identities using RealMe? The Department
is not the custodian of this information. The RealMe service is provided
in Partnership with the Department of Internal Affairs and New Zealand
Post. New Zealand Post has responsibility for private sector use of RealMe
and setting charges.

 

Rather than to refer you to New Zealand Post separately, the Department
has consulted with New Zealand Post on the matter. We can confirm that the
information requested is commercially sensitive to the organisations New
Zealand Post is partnering with in supplying the RealMe services under
confidential commercial contracts. Therefore we are unable to disclose the
information you have requested.

 

Regards

 

RealMe Support
