I dumped Bitime and went on the Pro plan . See my current speed. The Bigtime Plan is rubbish

I wouldn't touch anything Telecom with a 10 foot pole.

I currently use Orcon for Phone and Internet and Vodafone for mobile (Since 2003)... Would consider 2 degrees if switching.

Hmm yeah, but they had the cheapest for the largest amount of data (unlimited).

We were on Vodafone paying I think $90 a month for landline + 20 GB and although it was fast, we ran out about 10 days into the month.

I'm in a flat in Dunedin so there are 4 people using the net.

Well, I just ran speedtest to Wellington from the US. You can make your own conclusions from that.

Ahem

Christchurch is a long way from Wellington.

But that sux's you get better speed that what I get to Christchurch

Completely unrelated to Telecom, but my connection is ridiculously asymmetric.

Title is misleading! I thought I was going to see a kiwi bird using a phone or something.
