As the newest competitor, Bigblu has a lot to offer in terms of speed, services, and installation to rural homes and businesses that have trouble connecting to the internet - more users from outside major cities can finally access the internet with faster download and upload speeds.
As some areas in NZ do not have fibre connections yet, going for satellite broadband will be the best “genuine alternative” to enjoy streaming videos, movies, and working from home.
Satellite connection is typically faster than the standard DSL internet, but it’s not as fast as cable streaming or fibre internet. It’s great for browsing, emailing, and watching movies online.
You will need someone to install a satellite dish at your property, as well as a modem inside your home with wires linking it to the satellite dish and, in most cases, a wireless router.
Anyone can get a satellite broadband service in NZ, particularly those who don’t have fibre connection yet.

Jordan was patient, pleasant and took the time to answer all of my questions. She made sure that I understood all the steps and was clear and concise in her replies. Jordan first verified that I was the person paying the bills and ascertained that my husband had already expressed a change to Pulse but wanted to speak with me first. As we are both older, we appreciate that Jordan had taken the time to ensure that we understood the importance of a smart meter as there are two dwellings on this meter.
Filomena had amazing customer service! She was very polite and respectful. She also was great at listening to my needs and offering solutions with options that had great savings. I would give her 10 stars if that was an option. If I decide to go ahead I would choose to go have her help me again. I have not had the best experience in the past with customer service reps so I would like to thank her for making this experience a good one. Kind Regards, Selena
Very clear and concise information. Great price comparison for saving money on our monthly bills! Thanks Issac and Glimp! I can't wait to pass these savings on to my hard working family Adding onto my review as I think this is totally unacceptable to have people call you about switching companies and you agree to change and go through the process with Glimp and then get phone calls from supposed companies BEFORE you even get the email offer from supposed companies.
Thanks Josh. A good savings for me and my family. That’s $30 a month saved and you were patient with me with all my questions. As a suggestion…. Please speak more slowly as I was a bit hard to understand at it E other than that…. Thank you
Was an amazing ecperience to finally take a leap for change with the best offer. Excellent customer service provided and the most amazing help in detail and understanding. Very grateful for the persistence and patience. Thank you kindly
