Yes but naked we'd have to pay another $25 on top of that. I've already explain why we can't change phone provider.

1332714 2013-03-14 09:11:00 Snap's base price is $75 for 50GB naked BB, here's their "addon" prices:

$15 Additional 100GB data
$25 Additional 250GB data
$45 Additional 500GB data
$70 Additional 1000GB data

So for $100 you could get 300GB data, or $80 for 150GB

100 is pretty good for 300gb.

Are the speeds managed? The only problem i've found with Kinect as during peak hours the speeds are managed if that makes sense. I'd also love to know what the latency is like with snap. But it does sound good.

1332716 2013-03-14 10:18:00 Nope, all full speed. Idk about the 1am-7am unlimited data time but my torrents seem pretty fast during those hours :D we get a solid 10mbps or 1.2mb/s here. Standard ADSL speed for our distance. Ping is ~40-50 ms to auckland and welly.

International speeds seem fine too. We run 10 people off our connection and it's holding up sweet tbh.

1332717 2013-03-14 10:42:00 Compass are horrible, same for Orcons unlimited plans.
As far as NZ goes, because of the cost of getting data across the southern cross cable, when it comes to unlimited, you get what you pay for basically... If you're only averaging < 150GB, then definitely go for a paid-per-GB plan.

1332718 2013-03-14 11:25:00 Compass = nothing but trouble, stay away from them.

Based on personal experience. Bad customer service, bad organization/co-ordination in calling out Chorus, bad billing practices, repeatedly.

Seriously.

The sooner this bunch of clowns go out of business the better.
