If you have no landline & only use 5-10GB a month wouldn't slingshot or others that do low users be good for you...don't know how much they are but a friend only paid about $15 a month for internet....don't know how much see used tho.

Jazzy from my understanding you still need a landline with most other providers. I don't need a landline I have a cellphone that does everything I need as DP is my bestmate so can call/txt/pxt him all I like and mum has me as her bestmate so she can call me when I need her. Everyone else I have enough minutes and txts to use.

I would need to look at naked broadband and from my understanding pretty much the only ones that do are snap, xnet, vodafone, and orcon

Actually I did just see that slingshot does but its expensive. There are low usage deals out there but I looked through them all when I first could get out of my contract with vodafone and they are just as expensive or just a little bit less then what I got at Vodafone.
For 10gb at Vodafone I would pay $55 for the same with slingshot or Orcon its $80+

We're going to trial it, we're moving anyways so our home phone will change.
Be interesting to see how many phone calls I make and how much they cost us over the month.
Calls to DH are free.

I have wireless home phone through Vodafone - it's only $25 a month, and offers exactly the same service as a landline, except it's run over the Vodafone cell network. I wanted to have the option of people being able to call me for free (i.e. Plunket, friends who also have landlines) without paying $55 a month. I have wireless net as well though. I pay $75 a month for 4GB net and my home phone ($70 for net, $5 for phone - special deal that they have). Haven't had any problems either.
