Best Home Broadband Price and Speed?

Keith from Avondale

Hello Neighbours,

A very happy New Year to all of you.

My home broadband Contract with Vodafone is ending soon and they have offered me a 20$ discount per month to renew my contact with them for another year. I will be paying 72$ a month for super Fast Broadband or what they call Fast Fiber they promised speeds of 1800 MBPS when we joined two years ago but its never reached that speed or even half of it and during peak times their speed is zero!. Vodafone provided us with cylindrical dish's two and then three dish's with a Voip landline to anywhere in NZ and calls to five mobile phone numbers free this is for unlimited data.

We are only two users and sometimes we have to struggle because their fast net reception is very slow.

I would like to know which is the best Home Broadband Fast Net Fiber provider or Hyperfiber provider which is supposed to be even faster but more expensive more than 100$ a month.

What sI need to know please is what services you are subscribing to speed at peak times, with which provider and the monthly cost.

I am told not to go to the small retailers as they do not have the resources to support their services.

Thank You for your time,

Kind Regards,
Keith

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
