Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone knows an ETA for Skinny 4g in Hamilton?
When that comes on stream, I'll sign up based on current offerings.

Thanks,

Skinny uses the Spark network, so when ever Spark has it, Skinny will too

And Spark has had 4G in Hamilton for quite a while now, along with a large build out of band 28 700Mhz 4G.

You can see coverage here by selecting "4G 700".

Might be worth adding that 4G on 700mhz is going to be useless to you unless you have one of a handful of newer handsets (HTC One M8, iPhone 6, Xperia Z3 for example).

The 1800mhz 4G coverage footprint in hamilton i believe is still quite low. This is curious because vodafone and 2degrees have covered most of the city with 4G on 1800mhz.
