Slingshot have been up front with their set up and costing even covering the price difference, winter/summer. My internet speed is a vast improvement over my last provider and no problems as yet!
Pros
The offer of "bundling" worked a treat, cost wise!
Cons
I only needed help, once and that took ages to come. So maybe, more staff needed.

Service in my books is almost non existent. They do not compare with what other providers are providing or offer anything better or at the same price as other service providers.
Pros
Difficult to find any benefits
Cons
No contact with customers. I feel we just pay for the service and thats about it.

I'm always on the look for the cheapest, which generally means I'm on a Fibre 100 plan locked in for a fixed year term. Slingshot proved to come out on top with a $68 monthly subscription which included land line.
Pros
It worked when it worked. Cheap.
Cons
I had to reset (switch on and off) the modem/router supplied by Slingshot everyday. If not their modem, then the repeater it connected to, or my device itself, or the odd time the fibre router, or a combination. Basically something needed to be reset every single day for a year. My support case was never followed up on. My subscription ended this week and while Slingshot are again the cheapest, I chosen a more reliable ISP based on reviews. ...read more
