Hi,

Just in the process of looking at either a UFB connection from Spark (100mps unlimited) or a Cable connection from Vodafone (100mbps unlimited) and I'm wondering whether anyone has had experience dealing with both. On one side I can get a UFB connection for $109 (including the $10 discount for having mobile bundled) or go for Cable for $89 (including the $10 discount for having mobile bundled). I'm located in Lower Hutt if that may/may not impact the Vodafone cable reliability/speed/etc.

I'm personally leaning towards Spark since that is what I've already got so why change a good thing but I'm open to considering what the competition has to offer. I'd also love to hear peoples experience with Spark's own UFB's offerings as well.

If you can get UFB then dont even think of getting cable.

I think it would be crazy to pay for a cable installation of what is legacy technology. If the service isn't good you are stuck with Vodafone - UFB is the future, will get much faster (maybe next year it will be 1gbps - who knows...) and you can change ISPs if you don't like your current one.
