Find out more about the four easy steps to get your free connection to ultra-fast, reliable fibre broadband.

Nominated by Bob Mitchener from Taupo: "Incredible India restaurant, Taupo. Not only do they make the most authentic, delicious Indian food I have ever tasted, but perhaps more importantly they are: Generous: these guys donate all left over food of the day to the homeless or hungry in Taupo. Service: Their service is thoughtful and kind. We always feel appreciated for using their establishment, either by the warm greeting we get, the offer of a drink if we are waiting for take out and their cute hand written messages on the carry bag of dinner. They certainly put the effort into the whole package not just making money."
