Hey all this may be a how long is a piece of string question but I thought I would ask anyway the channels are being dug and the fibre pipes installed in them over the last couple of days just wondering apptoximately how long until Enable will be able to provision connections so I can get off of Vodafone FibreX.




Here is my Quic referral https://account.quic.nz/refer/39513 if you are keen to change ISP and to get free setup (save $29). I will get a $50 credit if you use this.  Thank you very much if you use my link but I'm sure there are quite a few others who could share the same on here, no hard feelings if you use a different link.

Its usually a few months before its ready as it all needs to be provisioned in the back end.

 

A pamphlet usually goes out to the mailboxes when Fibre is ready to be ordered.

Or in my case, a small box of weetbix.

Fibre went in street in August, and they said fibre would be available by Christmas. Then January. Then March. Latest in April. So 7 months?

All depends if it wasn't a straight forward provisioning, back log etc

 

Can be anything that causes it to be delayed

Well I got my weetbix yesterday so not too bad about 6 weeks from ripping up the road to ready for fibre.

I'd love to see a pic of what they send out. Weetbix sounds pretty creative.

A printed sheet wrapped around a weetbix with 2 weetbix in it.
