Kia ora GZ

Just wanted to let you know that after 2 years as social & digital media manager at 2degrees (and one of the 2degrees team members on here), I’m finishing up end of next week as I’m going to the UK with my British partner. It’s been wonderful getting to chat with you here and on our other channels like Twitter, and have really appreciated you bringing issues and compliments to light, your knowledge, and sharing feedback which I’ve always passed onto our team. I know they’ve really appreciated it also.

Just wanted to introduce you to Sarah: @SarahRykers who is my replacement and will be your new 2degrees go-to – if you have any questions etc, feel free to check in with/ @ her.

Thanks again, and all the best!

Good Luck @morganbrowne the UK is an amazing place

Except broadband is not real fibre over there, its VDSL falsely marketed as “Fibre”

It's mostly crap with a few good bits really. My parents in a tiny village in Wales actually have proper fibre thanks to an EU project but we all know what happened with that..
