Overall pretty good experience.

Pros

No major issues once up and running, helpful on the phone.

Cons

Sent incorrect type of modem initially, quickly sent correct one but still delays setting up. Dropped out at busy times.

this provider was terrible. we ordered broadband from copper, we were told it would take 6 weeks, it took over 6 months due to really poor communication. once we got it, it was slower than our copper had been and the coverage was worse! we rang for help several times but no one seemed that motivated to do anything, in the end, out of desperation we have changed providers. also when you ring their help line you wait for a REALLY long time!

Pros

none

Cons

long wait when ringing helpline, poor help service, bad communication, crap product

Possibly the worst provider in terms of reliability. The connection cuts of for long periods on a day to day basis. Wouldnt have internet connection when needed the most. Have to toggle between 4g and this like right now. Yes you guys do have courtesy 4g, but doesnt help me using a diff mobile provider. Frustrated!!

Pros

The price (which i got switching from another provider)- usually not competitive

Cons

Disrubted connection, slow!

Only found out I was in huge arrears with Spark when I called in a fault. My weekly AP had been in place since commemcing act however no one bothred to phone me to let me know

Pros

Cons

Need to make person to person contact about billing. Do not leave customers unknowingly in arrears and reap more money via penalty fees!!!

English not always a first language with support staff so communication not always clear but seem technically competent. Maybe a crash course in Kiwi-isms could be developed

Pros

Cheap, fast (enough for browsing / video, no idea about gaming)

Cons

Few teething issues with setup, particuarly regarding the VOIP line

I signed up for VDSL connection. The speeds are terrible, slower than normal ADSL. Also when you go to use the Internet for the first time on any given day, it takes about 1-2minutes for the internet to come up.. after that it is okay, but its annoying waiting for what should be an instant always-on service. Also, I had my own modem, and I configured it using the settings they give on their website. This didnt work, so I had to ring the helpdesk, who then took me through the ...read more

Pros

No Contract

Cons

Slow VDSL. Slow to startup for first use each day.

Glad to be back with them.

Pros

This is my 2nd Skinny period. Their broadband is easy to set up, great value and the support's been good too. Speeds are if anything faster than Spark which I used for a few months. Spark didn't send me all the cables I ...read more

Cons

There are a few glitches on their website, involving their login and card verification procedures. Fortunately their call centre was much better.
