that's going to be painful I'm use to downloading without any sort of caps so do download anything & everything I fancy - I might have to be a bit more selective

Man, you'll have to be careful. One of our friends got a $1000 internet bill after her daughter came home from Uni and downloaded dozens of movies. That was an interesting conversation.........

Default Compare broadband providers

Is there a site that compares (or lists) broadband providers?

There's not that many providers available, and most of them are only resellers of Telecoms services!

Telecom (Xtra) is my preference because you can get faults sorted immediately on the phone, whereas most others need to contact Telecom for you, so you can be held up while that happens. Their customer service is pretty poor though, they all run by pre-written scripts and if you can't solve a problem from their script, they make up rubbish to get rid of you.

Slingshot are supposed to be excellent with customer service, but I've never dealt with them.
