telecom unlimted vdsl i am pulling 32down and 12up with 6ms to local spark hub and 18-20ms to auckland from Rangiora near christchurch (technically the whop whops infrastructure wise)

Why are you not on fibre yet bitch? Enabled rolled it past your house just after I moved out!

$$ unless your paying for it.

and thanks speakman I am enjoying Spark, same speed, same service, cheaper price, and i notice my ping does not skyrocket in peak times like it did with snap.

so service and cost wise your argument is null in my case

Not all ISP's charge more for different connection types - there are some that charge same rate for ADSL2+, VDSL & UFB.

I honestly can't comment on the help desk, last time I called them a year ago they were great, haven't needed to since.

Mines still a dream, no slow downs, wife watches HD netflix, I play BEEF with no hiccups or spikes, if I had a 2nd monitor I could probably stream my midget porn in 4k 3D and not break a sweat.

My track record with spark is terrible, port a number from 2 degrees to them, 6 weeks of continual fuckups, non stop talking to people in india to fix it. Kept it for a week and ported it straight back to 2 degrees. Spurk are fucking useless if you have problems.

Agree Spark support is shit, but i spent ages arguing with snap about massive slowdown and ping increases in the evening and price and caps on plans..

Article already states the merger of the call centers and offices..


You never know, 2D could end up taking a lot of customer service related learnings from us and upping their game massively.

I've been here before with another ISP - it nevers works like that.

Installs are free, and the monthly should be less than VDSL.

nope unlimited VDSL = 90 per month getting 40mb down 12 - 15up.

fibre = 12 month contract or 299 for installtion, and $105 (naked) Unlimited at 30mb down 10mb up or $135 for 100mbdoen 50up
