Why? Its not as though there is any real competition; they are clearly
in the "milk it" phase of "free enterprise." If you were a

they are not likely to lose - or are you arguing for the good old days

To an extent that depends on whether people wanting to find you use
the book, or just the internet version. But I do sympathise, if a
service is worth doing, it should be to a reasonable standard. A phone
book is just a listing from a database; there is really no excuse for
missing a section of surnames from that listing. I do expect there
will be another book, but it may be a few years away.
The government do have many systems that work well for related lists -
motor vehicle registration is one, and chances are they have a reverse
phone listing avaialble to police and security services so that they
can identify people. from a phone number. It should be fairly easy for
either government o a number of private organisations to run a list,
but the fashion now is for government to get others to do things for
them - often at higher cost and lower quality, or to just not do
things at all, and let people fall through the cracks - business
profits are more important than people or our society.
I suspect printed books will disappear at some stage - too many use
mobile phones which for some strange reason do not get listed, and a
lot of people don;t want to be found. The French put electronic
devices in each home with a directory service built in - it was
overtaken by later technology, but at present we seem to have the
worst of both worlds.

No we don't. You can opt out of being in the directory and you can opt out of receiving the phone books and just use the whitepages.co.nz or google.
The paper books simply reflect whitepages.co.nz at the time of printing.

If you are one of the 30 listings there you can be found in the online
phone book.
.........
Thank you. I'm in that list.
I think this latest book may just be for people with home businesses.
Perhaps they will deliver a book with all listings later.
But as they leave the books up by the mailbox anybody could pinch them.
The printing is too small to read anyway.

Geo - the printed version of the telephone directory represents a
technology that 'the internet' has rendered redundant. Back then an >annually-distributed printed directory was all we had. I well remember
that businesses that missed out on an up-to-date yellow pages
directory listing could well fail because of that. However now we
have access to an electronic directory that is updated far more often
than once a year.
To find a phone number, look at whitepages.co.nz - no printed
directory needed - and if you can use Google you will find the number
far faster via the search facility.

Very annoying for all us Dorans!
Yes, I've sent Spark an email. It seems we have to contact our phone
providers.
Don't throw last year's book out before checking this new one. The
small
print makes it unreadable anyway.

It's not suprising they make the odd mistake in the printed directory. >>>The online white pages is absolutely hopeless. Perhaps they need some >>>competent staff.
Why? Its not as though there is any real competition; they are clearly
in the "milk it" phase of "free enterprise." If you were a
shareholder I'm sure you would applaud them wasting money on a product
they are not likely to lose - or are you arguing for the good old days
when things like a phone book were propvided by the state-owned
telephone systtem?
(Its a slow day on nz.general - I'm probably like most people that
hardly ever use the printed phone books any more)
..............
I need to be in the book so people can find me.
Perhaps it's time the government ran the postal service and the phones.
Geo - a quick whitepages search showed this:

If you are one of the 30 listings there you can be found in the online
phone book.
.........
Thank you. I'm in that list.
I think this latest book may just be for people with home businesses.
Perhaps they will deliver a book with all listings later.
But as they leave the books up by the mailbox anybody could pinch them.
The printing is too small to read anyway.
Everybody seems to have mobile phones these days.
If I start using taxis I'll need a mobile to call one when away from home. >I've got St John's button of course for home and garden.
