Spark Broadband

Digital technology can make a significant, positive impact on our nation's social and economic wellbeing – enabling stronger, safer, more connected communities (even in the most remote rural areas), opening more opportunities for our children (regardless of their socio-economic backgrounds), and improving health outcomes for New Zealanders of all ages and walks of life.

It can enable Kiwi companies to compete - and win - on the world stage and become smarter, more agile businesses by harnessing all the benefits of new technologies such as Cloud services and the Internet of Things.

Spark's success is dependent on our customers in one key market: New Zealand. That's why we're passionate about using technology to be truly useful to our customers, helping make our country better and enriching the lives of all New Zealanders. We want to be the most valued brand in the home, and the most trusted partner for business.

Moving to new home. Waiting for fiber to be connected, so they gave us wireless broadband until fibre connected. Not expecting password. Will not refund our money.
I am going off spark after being with them for over 40 years.

one of the most hopeless, arrogant organisation I have ever had to deal with. I have been with them for many years but over the last few years it has been a steady dive in performance, service and support until it has reached new lows. Loyalty to a long time customer is some thing that they do not adhere to. A new plan is being forced on me but getting the swap over sorted is a nightmare. And then a bill comes and nothing has changed, except my old LL has been cut off. Trying to sort it is a nightmare that anybody could really do without. I am flabbergasted at the poor quality of knowledge and desire to help a paying customer through a change that they forced onto me. This is a new low in a steady downward curve over the last few years. ...read more
Pros
Some individuals put in the effort, but they (whilst appreciated) are few. Based on my experience. No Pros.
Cons
A helpdesk in the Phillipines is a problem because they do not understand local (NZ) conditions and expectations. The fault is not with these individuals but with what management dumps on them. All that matters is the money honey. No loyalty to long serving customers. Problem? What Problem? They just want to get you off the line ASAP. A constant feeling of management double-speak that is drilled into the overworked and underpaid underlings. ...read more
