    Customer service is extremely poor...

    REVIEW:

    Customer service is extremely poor, as someone said they just want to hang up. Off-peck speeds are disgusting, I usually get around 2Kb/s! Usually during the day the connection from the ISP and my modem randomly disconnects! Over all a really bad ISP! Just use Xnet, nice costumer service and lightning fast!!!

    Very poor ISP in my opinion.

    REVIEW:

    Very poor ISP in my opinion. Have been with Slingshot since 2006 when they were excellent - looking to move now. Things have just got slower and slower. Customer service very poor - long waits and don't call you back when they say they will. Very surprised at the good reviews here - mind you a few years ago I couldn't fault them. Look around some more before making a decision based on the above reviews.

    Do not waste your money...

    REVIEW:

    Do not waste your money on All you can eat Unlimited plan if your main downloads are for movies as my download average at around 5kb/s(yes 5 kb/s not typo) most of the time. I called tech support and they said there's priority on download speed and movies download are at the last priority hence the slow download speed.

    Slingshot is great IMO.

    REVIEW:

    Slingshot is great IMO. I have recently upgraded to FS/128, and speeds are excellent. I don't use customer support very often - mainly just email or online help.
