Been with Hotshot for 3 months. Great prices, really keep costs down. Agents seems to be overseas but response calls extremlly fast, and they understand lots technical stuff and what you need, rather than just reading the script. Call center closes after 6pm but fine for me.

They always step up to the mark if you have a problem. Contact is VERY good, and promotions help in a real way.
Pros
Specials that feel like gifts.

Suddenly received an overdue bill and a threat to disconnect my service if not settled when I had already paid my bill (I have bank statements to prove it) and my next one wasn't due for another week.

Emailed and pm'd their Facebook page to sort it out or I'm taking my money else where.
Pros
Cons
Totally unorganized.

I joined NOW in March 2024 and I am very pleased that I switched from my previous provider. NOW was recommended by Geeks on Wheels and so far I have found the service and support to be 1st class
Pros
Support, Support, Support!
Cons
none

I have dealt with customer service a couple of times since I signed onto Now and each time was given superb customer service. There is nothing worse, when you are phoning any customer service, than being given a range of options then being put on hold for minutes at a time before eventually speaking to someone from overseas who cares little about your problem. This does not happen with Now. Far from it. You are speaking to a person (at least I was) within a couple of minutes and having your problem dealt with in a friendly and professional manner. They, on both occasions, have gone the extra mile to help. I am more than happy with this company. ...read more

Adrian sets the standard for a great service and support. After years of trying to work from home on an unreliable service from a big NZ Telco, we moved to Fast Internet and now have a fast , reliable and consistent connection. If you ever do need support, you are talking to an expert who can help on the first contact - not being transferred around trying to get to the right team.
Pros
Great Service and Support.
Cons
none

Awesome service from Now. Agents are polite and friendly and know what they're talking about (unlike other companies like 2degrees where they have automated everything so agents cant actually help with anything outside their script) Excellent value for money as well. Easy to set up and get sorted when connection went live.
Pros
no
Cons
no

We were with HotShot for two years.
Pros
They are a very affordable provider. They work well most of the time. During opening hours callcentre does pick up quickly.
Cons
We had to keep calling them because speeds would drop. They would then pick back up for a while. I suspect throttling. We also started to experience a lot of packet loss. Changed ISP and the problem has resolved itself. Often poor English (not always) in the contact centre which has limited hours. ...read more
