So we've had Snap for over 2 years now and even moved house (from Halswell out to Lincoln).
First thing we did when we moved in was get UFB installed and apart from the lawn getting a little messed up, the install went very smoothly.
Over the last year we've got to know a lot of our neighbours and they have also swapped to UFB.
BUT, there appears to be 2 groups of UFB users:
(1) Happy UFB users
(2) Not-so-happy UFB users
The first group - the "Happy UFB users" - are the people that listened to me and swapped to using Snap internet.
The second group - the "not-so-happy UFB users" - didn't listen. If they went with Spark, they found that the solution really didn't offer much benefit over ADSL. And as for the Vodafone users - well, when they finally got properly connected (after a number of connectivity issues), they found the internet connection wasn't consistent and the phone system frequently failed.
Moral of the story: if you live in Christchurch and want a good quality internet link over UFB, go with Snap.
