Hi,
My parents live in New Plymouth and would never switch from Telecom so I was just wondering if there's any plans on a UFB launch in New Plymouth?
I assume this is not for open discussion but marswell try anyway.
Cheers,
Tom

cbrpilot: Hi Tom, work is underway to get UFF signed up and to enable connections across the UFF areas (Hamilton (incl outlying areas), Tauranga, New Plymouth and Wanaganui). Commercial launch dates etc are commercially sensitive, so won't be announced here. They are also dependant on UFF being able to nail the customer experience that Telecom is after.
So until then, hold tight, but be assured we are working on it.

You mean keeping the legacy piece of copper that the fibre network is meant to be replacing? Hehe :)

coffeebaron: Hehe, yea I know it's not all about copper; and at least you guys have fibre plans into a few more areas than some other ISP's. Got a few customers who I'm about to move ISP due to no fibre plans yet, alas I can't send them your way as they are in UFF areas too :(

cbrpilot: Closer. There are very good reasons why it is taking longer than any of us would like.

What are those reasons?

DjShadow: Would it be fair to say life would be different if Chorus won all regions in NZ? (as in easy for a ISP to deploy to all towns)
No matter who won the UFB contract, if there was only a single supplier, then it's a given that it would be easier for all service providers. That said, there are downsides to only having a single provider too from an industry perspective.
Like I said in my previous post, Telecom is working very hard to be able to serve Ultra Fibre in all areas where it is available. We appreciate people's patience. We need to get it right.
