Email servers and some websites are either blocked or throttled. I've contacted Slingshot multiple times - They promise to get back to me after they have investigated - 2 months later, still no response.
Pros
its cheap
Cons
its useless. I'll leave them as soon as my contract is up.

Worst ISP EVER!!!
I was a loyal customer for over 8 years, always in credit. Never complained. After moving house and unforeseen circumstances, my account was canceled. Missed an invoice and that was that. Five years of business emails, personal emails gone!! Wiped out with no way of retrieving them. Customer service was non-existent. When finally getting through and making sure I was in credit and try to retrieve my emails, the lady on the phone's exact words were "Nope". *** Slingshot!!
Pros
NONE!!
Cons
WAY TO MANY!!

Horrible. I asked them to cancel my plan after my contract was up, looked around and decided to stay with them but try a different plan/more expensive plan as they were going to give me a $15 discount. Fine. Fast forward a month they say I have to send my modem back and if I don’t they’ll charge me $100. So I ring them, they say it’s a mistake. Same day I try use my internet, seems that they never cancelled the disconnection, so then I ring them to query it, again a mistake. They’ll need to recconnect me. I then check my billing and see they didn’t apply my discount, the $15. By now I’m well and truely over it. ...read more
