Xt sucks cos the credit departmentripp you off after billing accounts go into arrears. I never can get to pay less than 200 dollars per month for an account that went into arrears months ago. they always find a way to keep broadband expenses high. never tell you if deactivated accountts shouldnt continue to be billed. Fuck you telecom credit department
XT is good. I get coverage in more places than my Vodafone friends and another thing is where ever there is coverage its 3G. i.e. internet/data etc...
Gutsy great ad. Hav to say I'm lucky & had no problem with XT which goes fine on my iphone - loads of support from Telecom -so can't complain. I know lots of people inconvenienced but they have to do PR and to me this looks great!
This Scottish wank stain ain't even ON the Greenstone track lol he's near Elfin Bay which is an open area at the Caples/Greenstone river as it comes into Lake Wakatipu, I can guarantee ya'll NO cellfone coverage on any of NZ's hiking tracks, this cunt is full of shit. Change network.
@tedoolpunk usually when one goes to a place like that its to get away from things like cellphones and other people, why would you WANT cellphone coverage??
plus, i doubt ANY cellphone company has coverage in a place like that, so changing networks wouldn't make any difference.
and watch your language. this is a public forum, your kids could be reading this.
@hamfish225 yeah i see your point but what i'm saying is this prick is trying to make out like you'd get coverage anywhere, which is bollocks. and who are you kid to be telling me or anyone else what to say and think on here dumbass. public forum, lots of opinions, get over it. FAG! lol.
Absolutely terrible advert. I hate Telecom even more from seeing this. I would never use them as a Telco anyway. This is a very smarmy summary of there absolute disaster effort of the XT network. Shocking.
This is so badly judged and smarmy. People were severely inconvenienced by that network failure - unable to call emergency services etc. To make a joke about it just reeks of self-congratulatory ad agency douchery. This guy needs to get back to his desk and sort his stupid company out.
How can XT say "we New Zealanders" when this Paul Renolds is a Scottish import. Least they can say their Top Gear promo boy resembles an accurate representation as he seams to 'crash' everything he drives!
What an arrogant snot, going on about Kiwi values and what not, while he's fly fishing no less! I wonder how much of a bonus he gave himself for doing this commercial, it's more contrite then his apology over XT and an embarassment to the telecommunications industry
