| 1195997 | 2011-05-06 06:00:00 | JFYI, I signed up. It didn't give me the option of choosing capped rate or pay the excess. I read the fine print and it does say any excess usage will incur more $$$, should not be that hard to maintain, the 30GB is cheaper than my 10GB at present. After 12 months I can just switch again ... I don't use their email address anyway .. Unused data is not carried over to the next month. |

| 1195999 | 2011-05-06 23:29:00 | Is a week enough for the switch to take place, cos that's when my new billing begins. | Nomad (952) | ||
| 1196000 | 2011-05-07 12:22:00 | Usually yes, 3-5 "working days", though they've been doing customers in less than that in many cases lately. | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1196001 | 2011-05-08 03:45:00 | I am with Orcon Gold plan 20GB Broadband and Phone. All New Zealand calls are free and overseas calls very reasonable. By monthly bill averages $104.00 depending on the number of overseas and cell phone calls. Help service is very good. My problem is that I am too far from the server. A Cabinet is due to be installed in September which should improve things. |

| 1196002 | 2011-05-10 08:59:00 | I've switched over . Well Actrix emailed me to confirm the switch . I kind of felt bad cos Actrix has been v v good, no problems can I fault them . Never any queues on the phone and all be v professional and v clear in their speech . When i rang Orcon, the person wasn't that clear . It did take Orcon a wee while more to put the BB on active after my prev ISP was disconnected . When I switched to Actrix - it was all automatic right thru . . . Add the username in and it was already all go . . Unfortunately the deal was so good with Orcon, esp the unmetered sites . Never had I had the freedom to watch whatever I wanted . Speeds the same but on TV on Demand - less congestion with Orcon . I could download Masterchef Masterclass at full speed while Actrix was only at 100KB/sec . |

| 1196003 | 2011-05-10 09:23:00 | China also has 100x more people per square-meter than we do. Or something to that effect... No dispute on the above. But I think their Govt is more efficient and more productive than ours. |
