A good service but they have been dominant for too long. and now others providers are offering just as good or better services at a cheaper price...and they try harder.
Pros
Good speed, reliability, service. Nice cheap international calls with 0161
Cons
Expensive. Not good value for money. Not making any efforts to keep customers.

Spark, one of the big two broadband providers in New Zealand has announced a raft of changes to its broadband plans as it responds to the changing demands of a data hungry nation that New Zealand has become.  There was a press release today that announced Spark has responded to growing demand for data by increasing broadband plan allowances by 50%... however this does also mean a change to some prices.
