App is trash

Absolute joke, overpriced and the app is always bugging out.

App broken

The app just randomly decided to stop working with no explanation: "something went wrong. Please try again later"

Terrible

Logs me out constantly and won’t let me change password.

TAKING MY MONEY THEN RUNNING

I just signed myself up for financing a phone, when the spark app logs me out, and refuses to log back in. Ok cool, I’ll just click forgot password, won’t do that because it’s a social account. BUT IT WONT LOG IN THROUGH MY GOOGLE SO NOW IM GONNA FOREVER OWE MONEY TO THESE GUYS. Not to mention every single time Ive called support the line hangs up on me because I can’t check my app for a verification code. I wonder why….

No good

Spark really need to fix this app it’s too difficult to navigate it is full of errors and this latest one doesn’t even open… wrong format !

Useless

Completely rubbish app. Set up banking payment does not work set up auto top up does not work. Sends 8 texts 3 of the exact same ones dont waste your time with spark they are useless

Go with another carrier

Every thing I've tried to do with this provider I've had problems with. I can't add minutes and had problems making an account and have spent hours on hold and on the phone with no resolution.

Total of one

Usage/one-off changes

Since the new update it wouldn’t open

Having installed the new update I was unable to log in and stating different format. Contacted Spark, great help! YEAH RIGHT. AI Generated.

Good when it works and you don’t have to do anything on it

Bought add ons that have just not worked, not much in the way of customer support, frustrating to manage

Bad Wording

Said I was late on payment then when checked said on the app it’s fine and will be taken with next payment/direct debt. Then they go ahead and slap extra charges on when I was already prepared to pay, this app is definitely catered to create ambiguity around this and create more late charges/income for spark, I would not recommend this company or app until they ensure they can communicate correctly

Worst provider

All other providers you can use the app without data to be able to purchase more. How come i use 2gb in one day but when i was on a monthly plan i wouldnt use even close to 1gb a month you guys are a scam

slow and buggy

the spark app is a slow and buggy experience, with poor design that is very clunky to use

Balance of prepay?

Awesome I can easily see how much data is there but not the money balance. The data visibility is equally useless for me as we have a no data plan for a minor.

Trash

Almost as worthless as the last version. I can only assume that Sparks app creators were the same children responsible for the scribble they call a logo

Good overall

“Something is wrong, please try again later” EVERY time I want to something that isn’t buying a value pack so annoying

SPARK invoices

Why is it that SPARK do not give dates on their monthly invoices? And it’s impossible to find out from them What dates you are paying for. With their coverage even one day would be an awesome bonus.
This is not ACCOUNTABLE Spark!

Appalling

I seriously can’t believe it 2 hours wait and didn’t even offer a call pack!

And seriously all the nicknames taken! Absolute have because I know all the people in NZ with my name! What the 🤪🤤😮‍💨

Generally good but…

…I’m sick of managing multiple payment cards across dozens of apps so it needs ApplePay. Sign-in could be cleaner with Passcodes too.

Frustrating App

The app keeps crashing and I can’t login or open the app really frustrating
