So, how long do the UFF people have to wait? Telecom^WSpark and Vodafone have finally arrived in Whanganui, beaten by such major players as Inspire, Orcon and Compass...

It's not a simple process to roll out to multiple regions.  Most ISPs have picked one to begin in, and then added more slowly over time. It requires a good amount of investment as well as deals with the other LFCs, new handovers and so on.

Spark was the first RSP to cover all regions and handovers.

I can't give you an answer on anything outside of Auckland I'm afraid.

That's some sweet, sweet pricing right there.  Looking forward to ditching Spark and ultra mobile and going Big Pipe and Skinny.

Signed up for the 200/200 plan yesterday, only $20 more than I'm paying Snap for UFB 30/10.  Can't wait to try it out :)
