Spark made no effort to retain me as a customer once fibre became available and we could upgrade from the copper net work.

Pros

Much faster and cheaper service

Cons

None so far

Urged to go to 4G. Good for 3 months then started slowing. Eventually speed test said - no latency. Changed to copperwire - wonderful. Took two months of problems (still had to pay) to connect- all Spark problems. Then received letter saying copperwire monthly price going up and go back to wonderful,reliable 4G to avoid increase in charges. Spark customer service denied anything wrong with 4G and my problems were normal.

Pros

Features on paper were good

Cons

Arrogant staff responses - with two exceptions.
No service - yet still paying
Talk at you - not to you

Delighted with this company but since they depend on 4G mobile network and this isn't available where I am going to move, I have to stop using them. Sad.

Pros

Price and service superb

Cons

We ran out often two days before the end of the month and it got tricky learning to renew online.

I have been with many different ISPs over the years and Spark, by far, is the worst company to deal with.

There was nothing wrong with their service, the internet worked. But every month they would find a new way to overcharge me.

They are also the most expensive.

Pros

Internet worked, most of the time.

Cons

In 3 months. I've had to spend 6+ hours on the phone with them sorting out billing issues that originated on their side.

Their modem also needed constant resetting to work at full speed.

Offered a $79.95 plan should I change from sister company FLIP internet. Did so and so far despite numerous emails and phone call to customer service been billed everything other then the $79.95 promised. Dont trust them

Pros

Still trying to find one

Cons

Agree with other review. All they are interested in is $$$

We've got an excellent RBI signal strength but the speeds are regularly 2MBpS or less - Don't touch this company. The problem is at there end of the service - and that service dead useless!

Pros

None

Cons

Useless support.

All round pretty great! I never had to interact with them.

I don't remember my service ever going down.

Pros

Reliable. Cheap when i signed up but other companies ended up catching up with them.

Cons

No perks

$125 for vdsl and a mobile on the $39.99 plan what sticks in my craw is the 20c per call to your voicemail for the mobile.

Pros

Works network was ok not too bad for VDSL

Cons

comes down to what the cost is
