Was fine until purchased by Vodafone, at which point their plans could not be upgraded. We considered moving to Vodafone, but after 25 mins on the phone to an utterly incompetent sales rep (he didn't even know what an 0800 number was!) gave up and moved to Now.

Pros

Always quickly responsive when I called (unlike Vodafone)

Cons

Plan was limited to download of 30Mbps

I have NOW service at 3 locations which use a number of not so common features that need to be configured. NOW staff understand the technology and what needs to be done.

Pros

Local, Responsive,Client Focused, Prompt.

Cons

Horrible "In Your Face" Phone Answering System. It belies the real people and real service NOW delivers. VODAFONE has the voice [but not quite the service]

Loved the humour and the accurate identification of the issues with other providers.

Pros

Top marks so far

Cons

nothing negative

I paid for the fastest fibre bundled with electricity. Worst decision was using Contact for internet. They do alright with electricity but internet speed was the worst. Always slow and sometimes very slow. Request to fix the problem went unanswered at first. I used speedtest.net and ethernet cable to verify they never able to provide a third of the speed that I paid for over a year. I was the only user, with only 1 device connected. When they did respond to my request, they d ...read more

Pros

Electricity works but internet not.

Very Very Very Very Very Very Slow
