We are with Telstra and both DH and I have worked there and can Honestly say that if you live in Wellington, Kapiti or Christchurch at this point in time your internet will ALWAYS be better with TCL as they have fibre optic cabling in those areas.
However if you live outside those areas you even if you are with telstra or any other network you are running on telecoms lines so will get the same no matter who you are with so find the cheapest!
I loved cable broadband when living in Kapiti, super duper quick but now we are Rural levin we are with them still but are technically on telecoms cables and its not so hot.....hope this helps!

I had Telstra dial up at one stage for myself and OMG their customer service was crapped when I told them I didn't want it anymore  They kept sending me a bill every month and after 4 months or so of telling them the same thing they finally got the meassage
