I talked with a lovely young man by the name of Taylor who set everything up for me perfectly. He got me a deal so hot that the provider was amazed when I rang to set up the bill payment. Cheers broadband compare, you are indeed the real deal!
Pros
Talking to a real person is wonderful.
Cons
Nil be great if more providers signed up to your service that’s all.

There is nothing wrong with Spark broadband. The set up was easy and moving house was also easy. It's just cheaper at the moment to take a bundle with our power provider
Pros
No fees for extra use. We only ever paid one fee each month
Cons
Obviously cannot beat the price of a package with our power server

We joined when it was Actrix - and were reasonably happy with it. Then it was taken over by Voyager, who continued charging us what Actrix had charged us - even though their own equivalent was markedly cheaper. Hence the change of ISP!

I am reluctantly leaving Farmside after about twenty years. They have been a great company to work with. I am only leaving because they can't connect me to fibre in our area.
Pros
Great Help Line . Wonderful staff who can relate to your problem and get it sorted quickly.
Cons
No Cons! Highly recomend their service.

Please look else where for an internet plan. Most of the call center personnel are unhelpful and rude. Very untrusting net provides who would lie to you face about incentives if it wasn't for phone communication, preferred method! They are rubbish!
Pros
Some of the call center personnel are wonderful, but it's a jackpot if get to talk to them.
Cons
Untrustworthy!

Worst ISP ever. Connection frequently stalls or drops out. Router requires restarting often. I used to think which ISP you were with made little difference - how wrong I was. Since switching to Bigpipe we have been plagued by issues daily. Customer service just make excuses or literally deny the problem you report exists. We will be paying to exit our contract early it is that bad.
Pros
Sign up offer seemed good at the time
Cons
Connection is awful, customer service is just as bad. Everything.

Moved to NOW 4.5 yrs ago after being hugely mucked around by previous landline and internet provider. BEST DECISION EVER! Have moved and installed fiber recently and still fantastically fast, efficient service
Pros
Local call centre, fast phone answering (no being put on hold or in a queue) easy to understand call centre operators, obliging, patient teckies, brilliant followup to check everything is OK
Cons
None
