4G Wireless Home Broadband

Unless I'm missing something (easily done on the extremely messy
webpages all ISP have for their plans!), Spark's Unplan stupidly
over-priced:

$65 for up to 60GB
$75 for up to 120GB
$85 for over 120GB

Technically it is unlimited (due to automatically rolling-up a tier
depending on how much data you use each month), so it might work out
cheaper than buying a new block of data in other companies plans, but
you can get far more data for far less cost elsewhere anyway.


Vodafone has better deals:

$40 for up to 60GB
$55 for up to 300GB
$65 for unlimited (within "fair use")

There's also a 4G/5G option for $55, but I can't see if there's any data cap.
(I also can't work out why my 300GB connection, which they
automatically upgraded from an older more expensive 120GB plan, is
costing me $65 per month!)


Even Spark's own sister company Skinny has better deals:

$45 for up to 60GB
$55 for up to 120GB
$60 for unlimited




* All prices are from their websites for 4G wireless home broadband
without having a mobile phone plan with the same company and doesn't
include any free sign-up freebie offers.

So what is your question/request?

Skinny is Spark with sensible(lower) prices and no doubt some service cuts.

The question would be "Why the hell is anyone using Spark 4G Wireless
Home Broadband"?? Or "You at Spark needs to pull their finger out and
re-do the pricing??"

Spark (and Vodafone too) is trying to push 4G/5G wireless home
broadband on customers so the company can side-step Chorus charges, but
at those prices nobody should be silly enough to use Spark.
