1433818 2017-04-05 22:08:00 I've moved back home and want to re-join Flip for my ADSL2+ Internet access. They'll charge me $55 per month for 100 gigs per month plus $25 setup. That's fine (I usually use about 5 - 10 gigs per month). But I can only get this on a one year contract, which is a problem 'cos I might move before then.

Does anyone know of a deal without any contract?

thanks

1433819 2017-04-05 23:40:00 Skinny are doing ADSL/VDSL now, for a pretty good price with no contract $68 per month for ADSL. Bigpipe are always a good option too although they may be $10 dearer a month.

Had you considered skinny's 4G fixed wireless? No contract, $40 a month for 40GB (assuming you are in a suitable area). It's not bad for the price. I think it's pretty heavily traffic shaped though, although If you're in a good coverage area you could see around 80Mbps on a good day.

If you don't go with the contract, its just an additional $10, so $64.95 from Flip.

I await to hear what you decide.

1433822 2017-04-06 22:42:00 Yeah the Skinny website was having a few issues yesterday, was talking to a mate about it who's a fair distance away from his Exchange and was looking at 4G.
$68p/m for unlimited ADSL with them, the others are
Otherwise, unlimitedinternet.co.nz do it for $68 too without a contract

Haven't heard the best things about Flip, speed-wise. Mixed reviews about Unlimited Internet, they bought a bunch more bandwidth towards the end of last year which helped out a lot. No problems with Skinny in my experience :)
