Celebrity Phone-Out

The infamous Telethon phone bank is back with a modern day 022 twist.

Of course celebs, sports stars, and the nice folks at ASB will be answering the phones when you call with your credit card at the ready to donate, but here's the 'thank you very much' part; every hour there will be a celebrity phone out by our mates at 2-degrees to a random kind Kiwi that has kindly donated.

That means we could be calling you, yes you, live on the telly. 2-degrees could be connecting you at home on the couch or out & about to one of 23 celebs lined up to make a celebrity call out. This means you could be in touch with a celeb, chin wagging, live on air and not on ya facebook or twitter blabbing, but together, over the phone, just the two of you — as in 1 + 1 = 2.

And as if that isn't choice enough, 2-degrees are also giving you a 022 phone prize package. So, when you have donated by credit card on 0800 TELETHON, have your phone handy.

We might call you and you might have something to brag about come Monday; that 'you' are 2-degrees from an All Black, or a model, or an actor, or a sports star, or a fast car driver, or a comedian, or any one of the other 17 celebs 022 have lined up from home & away.

OK. That's enough of a blurb on the interweb. Hope to talk soon. Better that way.

PS When you have donated, remember the 2-degree rule. Tell the person next to you to do the same.
