SPK- Spark NZ (TELCO)

[Cyclical]

Also SPK is one of the limited club which may or may be seen directly affected by C-19 (Okay indirect effects still to come)

I was thinking about this and reckon that although they may gain from increased domestic demand for broadband and the likes and maybe some of their weaker competition falling to the wayside, they'll probably suffer with the loss of some businesses using their expensive Data and Voice products which are very lucrative. And other businesses that come through will be looking for cheaper alternatives (WAN services for example) to do the same job. But C19 will be an excuse to slash Spark's expenses too, so they'll probably come out on top.

Almost a month since there's been any comment on the SPK thread, once the biggest and busiest stock on the NZX! To get the ball rolling, what's the verdict on their Spark Sport offerings? ( From a former techo who left class after mastering Windows 95's mysteries.)

I watch the F1 on it via my smart TV - have fibre but TV is Wfi from the router - works well 99% of the time occassionally the picture degrades - not sure if it is them or me!

Woo-hoo, broken through $5.00!

No complaints about the premier league football. Works well on Spark

Does anyone else remember getting a letter from Craigs circa 2010 or there then incarnation down ramping Telecom as it was and encouraging them to sell?
Couldn't believe it.
