| 1160889 | 2010-12-12 05:55:00 | Haven't gone over your data limit? No, they tell me when I do that they have allocated 10 more gig at my request. Barstewards. |

| 1160891 | 2010-12-12 07:05:00 | Don't mean to hijack here but can't seem to find it on their site. Does anyone know if they offer FS/FS with 10gb? I only see 20gb for FS/FS. |

| 1160892 | 2010-12-12 07:35:00 | Don't touch them with a barge pole Wolf. Cicero is correct, we are getting broadband as "fast" as 0.8Mb/s in the last few days, and fastest I ever got was 3.6Mb/s. Me too rang the helpdesk at 1.10pm on saturday and had a chat to a technician at 2.06pm who proceeded to telling me my 0.82Mbps result was nothing to be sneezed upon. I am currently scoping Snap Internet (from ChCh Wolf) and Actrix internet. At this stage Actrix seems to have the lead mostly because I make a lot of calls to uncle silvio berlusconi in Italy (just kidding about the little dictator) and Snap don't have a capped rate for that country. |

| 1160893 | 2010-12-12 08:02:00 | Small problem there - already with them. On the FS/128 10gb plan and just wondered if I could upgrade to FS/FS and keep the 10gb. Aside from disconnection issues my speeds haven't been too bad, better than Telecom back in the day and Xnet once it turned to crap. Did a test on their website and got like 18mbps down, which doesn't mean much I know. But the thing that keeps me with Slingshot is the free off peak hours in the morning. Set all my downloads for then. |

| 1160894 | 2010-12-12 08:14:00 | I'd get a new ISP. General consensus on here seems to be that Slingshot are useless. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
