I used to have cable.

 

About 5 weeks ago I was considering internet options. There was listings for cable deals at my address, but there now doesn't seem to be, on either broadbandcompare and the voda/OneNewZealand sites.

 

Are Voda/One not selling cable plans anymore?

 

 

 

For interest, I dug out my old docsis 3.0 cable modem and had a peek:

 

 

Does this mean there's no physical installation needed?

 

Thanks team!

HFC is still being sold, I've just checked my home address on https://www.vodafone.co.nz/broadband/internet-plans/ and HFC is still there.

 

What options do you get on that page?

I'm assuming the lines at the bottom are boilerplate, because I'm not at all sure there's phone lines here.

 

The bottom lines just go to an offer summary https://main.prod.vodafonenz.psdops.com/_document?id=0000017c-3398-d1d8-a3fe-7bdc93590000

@maxinen Is this in your wheelhouse? I can see that there are at least some addresses on this street that are serviceable with HFC, unfortunately I don't have the access needed to check SAL or request address adds any more.

Voda care team have followed up via PM, fixed up some 'address validation error' so I assume I've now got that as an option. Thanks folks!

Always a pleasure 😁
