Broadband with a helping hand.

We’re here to help. It’s what we do differently and what makes us great. It’s why we were founded in the first place after all. Whatever the problem, no matter the solution – we’ll do everything we can to get you and your tech sorted. 

At Now we pride ourselves on helping you enjoy more of the internet and less of its frustrations. While our nationwide network delivers everything you'd expect, it's our ability to get closer to your home and its unique needs that sets us apart. Our plans come with unlimited access to our technical support team (don't worry, they speak your language). If it takes more than a phone call, our friendly team of Techsperts can come to your place and help get any issues fixed.

We are in a semi rural location just outside Napier, with a Unison fibre connection and NowNZ ISP. Our ping speed to the ISP server is usually 3 to 4 ms (yes that is nit a typo, that is our normal ping! Measurement on Speedtest). The few times I have had questions the help desk has quickly responded and assisted with advice crafted to my level of understanding. Added to this their plans and optional hardware is well priced (high end routers at prices cheaper than traditional NZ online suppliers). ...read more

Great Service. Always get a human on the phone within minutes if I have any issues. Once I upgraded my plan to the ultimate package and it wasn’t running as fast as it should. NOW sent out 2 technicians to sort out the issue, which they did with some router changes and without cost (bar the $99 router required to get the top speeds). Overall just great service.
Pros
Everything. Great service, Great Speeds, very good pricing, but hey don’t we all want everything less expensive.
Cons
If I was to say anything it might be fractionally over priced on their top plans but that is subjective because no one else can really provide the speeds they do on their top plan.

Started off brilliant, speeds were as advertised for the first 6 months. Then had major speed issues, NOW had no interest in sorting this and kept blaming it on my home setup which had not been changed at all since I first joined NOW. I dealt with NOW's 3rd party tech who confirmed issue wasnt at my home and passed on his findings to NOW who thru shear arrogance by Kent in support would not believe the findings and kept insisting it was an issue at my home rather than the exchange. NOW refused to go to chorus and get the issue sorted. Four months went past and NOW still wouldnt do anything about my issue but advised me via email that they were terminating my services since the issue was unresolved. Avoid if you can! ...read more
Pros
Good initially
Cons
Very poor tech support and failure to sort issues.
