Am I responsible for helping to get a mobile phone? What about co-signing on a bank account for the guest?

We do ask you to take your guest to get a mobile phone and bank account when they first arrive as they will not be familiar with New Zealand or their surroundings. Hosts should help guests understand options, contracts, and commitments but never co-sign or pay for services for the guest. Your guest should be responsible for their own personal business, with your help and support.
