I choose the Broadband/Power/HomePhone/Cellphone bundle with Broadband unlimited both in speed and amount downloaded. Performance during the period since connection of all services has been excellent in every way. Just can't fault it and initially I had a couple of questions which were dealt with fast, professionally and talking to someone in NZ for support made it quick and easy as well.
Monthly account via email is detailed and easy to follow. I've got mine on auto payment, so the whole deal is carefree. ...read more
Pros
Top end performance, care free at a great price overall.
Cons
Power price is a bit higher than I would like. See how that goes through the winter months.

I have been with Spark for many years and have found that the cost of having a spark account too expensive. I am on a low income and cannot afford to have spark as my provider
Pros
Good staff with excellent communications skills
Cons
Too expensive.

Email servers and some websites are either blocked or throttled. I've contacted Slingshot multiple times - They promise to get back to me after they have investigated - 2 months later, still no response.
Pros
its cheap
Cons
its useless. I'll leave them as soon as my contract is up.

My broadband is portable, so I can take my modem with me when I travel and the signal is strong in most places. That's awesome. The customer service is amazing, very personal and helpful, always fast service.

The customer service for Skinny is shocking. I was charged 3 times for my initial payment and connection fee and did not receive a refund for 5 days. I was on the phoneline for and hour and a half waiting to speak to someone about this issue but never got though. I received an email telling me my modem would be there is 5-7 days and asking what fibre connection I had which I promptly replied to. I waited 14 days for my modem and it never came. I had to email asking where it was and was responded to with an automated impersonal email. I wrote an email complaining about the service I received and was asked for evidence and now ownership was taken. Would not recommend Skinny at all! ...read more
Pros
Internet is fine.
Cons
Customer service is awful and very disrespectful.
