| 1284998 | 2012-07-01 05:53:00 | Does anyone have Compass as their ISP or have past experience with them? Would like to know whether they are any good for broadband. | Odysseus (9186) | ||

| 1285001 | 2012-07-01 09:13:00 | Bugger. OK thanks will stay away from them and look for someone else with naked BB. | Odysseus (9186) | ||
| 1285002 | 2012-07-01 21:03:00 | Try Snap. | pctek (84) | ||

| 1285004 | 2012-07-01 22:49:00 | I have had many hours of dealing with the Compass 'Helpdesk' over a number of days and they are bad, bad news, period. If I was you I would have nothing to do with this badly run rip-off called Compass Communications. It is an off-shoot of Vodaphone using overseas held-desk people with poor English, overly officious, stick to the rules types. They cut off the phone and the Internet with no written warning and then refused to see why the person concerned, not me, was having trouble contacting them and that the Internet was needed urgently to complete work for a qualification that one of the children was completing, then started complaining that I had no authorization from the person concerned to get them back on line from my phone as the original phone obviously was not working. Very frustrating, save yourself heart-ache and sign up somewhere else other than Compass Communications. |

| 1285005 | 2012-07-02 00:35:00 | I have been with Compass ISP, BB over phone line, for several years and have found them satisfactory. They have needed a bit of prodding to fix occasional faults but they are probably no worse than other ISPs. On the help line you are talking to people in Auckland although some of the accents are a bit hard to understand. | IanS (924) | ||
| 1285006 | 2012-07-02 02:04:00 | Snap, Orcon, HD ... Wouldn't go near Slingshot or Telstra though, just personally :) I'm intrigued as to why you wouldn't go near Telstra. Admittedly I have never needed their help desk but apart from that have found them good. Have just upgraded with them and now on full speed 40gb + phone + backyard for $80 a month and for 12 months it is not going to cost any more than I was previously paying for a 1gb plan at reduced speed. Will see what offers they have after the 12 months are up. |

| 1285007 | 2012-07-02 02:27:00 | Yeah just wait until you need their Helpdesk... Or, I should say, pray you never do! ;-) Otherwise, they're decent, quality of their broadband etc is usually good... It's just the helpdesk has literally deterred me for life :p |
