Never had any issues, so support was given benefit of the doubt. Was on Fibre 200 plan, 200 Mpbhs was achievable up and down for local servers.
Pros
Quick
Cons
Price is high relative to other providers

Utterly poor service from Spark. Disconnected service without warning. Spoke to at least 24 people from Spark when I was passed off to different teams / had to follow up, but each time, no-one seemed to know what the status of my re-connection was. Poor poor service.
Pros
The only area Spark seemed to be capable in was extracting the early termination fee when I terminated the contract with them. Pity they are not capable in dealing with their incompetencies.
Cons
Spark disconnected my service without warning. Spark Blamed Chorus. No-one at Spark seemed to know what was happening. Get passed off to multiple Spark customer service representatives. Things not carried out when Spark said they would, so I had to chase Spark up. ...read more

We have repeatedly telephoned Spark and gone into their shop to ask for help and don't get anywhere. Now out of the blue they are trying to force us into changing to fibre. We have been asking about this for the last year and had no help of any kind. We had to buy a new modem which has since broken. We pay $100 a month for irregular and unreliable service. We have been with Spark for years. We had mobile phones with them which was also expensive. When we changed to 2 degrees they charged us an extra month on our bill. ...read more

As Above. No customer support. A big corporate company not looking out for the little bloke only interested in making money

Have had nothing but terrible service from Slingshot and after putting up with it for too long we are on the move. Very unreliable network and no difference in speed when upgraded to Ultra Fast Fibre.

After several bad experiences i will NEVER recommend Slingshot to anyone.

Cons
Everything

Excellent service. Went out of their way to help me get broadband to my rural property where no one else would even look at it. Really helpful and easy to deal with.
