722868 2008-11-25 22:09:00 If you have to pay $99 to join or pay some stupid fee, forget it

Thats why I went to Xnet .

And why I didnt stay with Ihug

Why on earth would you say this?? If you don't know the facts, it's best to stay silent .

I have just moved from Xnet to Xtra and not only did I not pay "some stupid fee", they gave me a $60 credit!!

Tip to Xnet customers . Don't moan about their incredibly bad service - jump ship .

722869 2008-11-25 22:34:00 Problem is if you jump ship every time you have a slightly bad experience, it'll happen on a month-by-month basis.. I remember it was only a few months ago when Xtra had big problems... Vodafone at the start of the year would send / receive email to Xtra / Hotmail / MSN customers ... stupid stuff like that...

I had an old workmate, changed ISPs 6x in 5 months ... crazy!

Coz I can, and most ISP's used to but probably dont now.

And according to the Xtra site, if they give you a modem, you have a contract, break it, you pay 199..

It maybe different, if you have your own modem

And if you dont have home phone whatever is it, you pay $10 extra.

722872 2008-11-26 03:15:00 Only way youre going to fix it, is to change ISP

The slowness has been around for a while, and its probably here to stay

722876 2008-11-26 06:18:00 whats an exchange? Xypher (14353)
722877 2008-11-26 12:22:00 An Exchange is where all the local ADSL connections for your area "meet" and then get fed down a fat pipe eventually leading into some description of internet backbone.

Ive just started a download now, getting >350KB/s! :)

Whats your general "region", e.g Central Auckland, New Lynn, Avondale, Wellington CBD..
