Just reading through the 2degrees Q3 results announcement:

 

 

The company achieved its third consecutive quarterly service revenue high, totalling NZ$148 million in Q3 2021, up 7% from NZ$138 million in Q3 2020. Service Revenue growth was primarily driven by growth in both the broadband subscriber base and ARPU, as well as continued growth in the postpaid subscriber base. More than 37% of 2degrees mobile customer base is now postpaid, compared to 34% a year ago, as the company continues to make progress in its long-term strategy of shifting its customer base to postpaid.

 

2degrees CEO Mark Aue said "Our 5G network is on track for launch in Q1 2022, with our first sites going live in Auckland CBD, followed by Wellington and Christchurch, bringing 5G to as many Kiwis as possible over time."

I’d guess that Huawei equipment will start to be switched out.

With some reports of folks waiting 1-2 hours for customer service, they need to place additional investments in customer service. They’ve got a modern platform, they’ve got simple pricing and good modems… it’s just let down by their customer service.

Walked past a new tower installed over the weekend on Wellesley St East, outside AUT.

 

Old tower (right) still there but wires all cut, old cabinet replaced with a new Ericsson.

2d are currently cutting over the mobile network to the new Ericsson EPC and planned work tonight

 

 

We have some maintenance planned on the 2degrees network between 21:00H on Monday 15th Nov and 06:00H Tuesday 16th Nov. Customers between south of Taupo to north of Wellington  may experience degraded mobile service during this time. We do our best to schedule maintenance at a time that will impact the smallest numbers of customers possible, though we do appreciate this will be inconvenient for some people. We apologise in advance if this affects you, and thank you all for your patience

I'm impressed by the density of sites in CBD vs the other two players. Should be good once it goes live.
