Skinny Jump limited offer

The ŌCHT/Skinny free Skinny internet programme has finished.

Services users will have received an update by letter or email, and our digital coach visited community lounges to help users get ready to use and update their Skinny accounts.

Here’s more of what you need to know!

  • there’s still no credit checks

  • you get free 15GB on the first day of each month

The offer before December 2025

ŌCHT teamed with Christchurch fibre company Enable and Skinny Jump to offer two-years free wireless internet to digitally excluded community housing tenants.

Qualifying people got a free Skinny modem and up-to 210GB free internet on the first day of each month.

The programme finished in December 2025. By then, users needed to be ready to move to the paid Skinny wireless plan.
