Slingshot went awry last year during their Fibre rollout. Tech came and put it "mostly" right. Never a good solid landline connection. This year they employed "bully boy" tactics when trying to get me to put in Fibre. Even though it was up to my landlord they kept trying to insist I go ahead without permission. In the meantime my internet has not worked at all for the last month and I still need to pay for it as I refuse to have another technician come and put on a leaky patch. I will not use Slingshot again. ...read more
Pros
Always willing to shift blame.
Cons

Don't touch with a barge pole - had internet with them for 2 years and every single time I needed customer service they made the process an absolute nightmare. Nobody ever got back to you and they had no idea what they were doing. Also internet often cut out and not cheap.
Pros
initial set up was fast
Cons
everything

After 30yrs with Telecom/Spark and finally after advising them that my contract had terminated. Spark can’t offer a similar deal that I had for the last 12 months. Which is $65 /m on unlimited 100/20 fibre naked boardband. The can’t only offer $89 for 12 month contract. They are other ISP that can do better than Spark. But Myrepbulic was a good deal. And I had friends that are with them.

Ive been a slingshot customer of 3 years and everything was fine until I changed plans to combined power & fibre. 4 month in and still haven't received fibre, instead being overcharged on several occasions now. Customer Service has been terrible, of course everytime its a different agent with very strong (indian) accent that is often not to understand and the left hand doesnt seem to know what the right hand is doing. Would like to change providers.

They never answer the phone anymore have waited 25min 30min and more every time I need to call. Their fritzbox modem has no range at all and will not reach all 5 rooms in our house
Pros
they matched theoffer I got from another company when moving house
Cons
There is no customer service anymore just a phone line with distorted crap music. They say go online but I have been unable to log in to my account for days despite being very careful to enter the saved details that use to work. when I reset my password it works once then says it does not recognise my login name ...read more

Easy to sign up but got the wrong sign up address. New fibre was installed at an agreed time with no fuss.
Pros
Simple dign up. Installation cost not quoted up front. Fast turn around from order to install
Cons
Not many really except the hiccup about installation address.
