Keeping you supported and connected
Woolworths Mobile is here to keep you connected and up to date about COVID-19 (Coronavirus). Our number one priority is the wellbeing of our customers and team members. We encourage you to follow the guidance of the Australian Health Department on how to protect yourself.
Due to the increased COVID-19 containment measures, Woolworths Mobile’s contact centre is experiencing longer wait times for customers contacting us via phone or online messaging.
We know how frustrating this can be and we are working hard to improve the situation to get to as many of you as possible.
You can continue to manage your account via the App or My Account. If you need further support you may be able to find the answer in the FAQs section of our Help & Support page. If not, our virtual assistant Olive is available to help you 24/7.
Thanks for your patience as we work through this.
