Yeah, hence I thought Spark might try and finish up the BigPipe brand and wrap it into Skinny 🤷‍♂️ all the DNS servers etc. all point to Spark infr. now anyway. Same concept as people running off to different insurance companies without realising they're mostly underwritten by the same set of corporates anyway 😂

They probably have data that shows they keep more customers if they have the different brands because people like to swap for deals. Probably make a fortune on the $15 router shipping fee when they surely don't pay more than $3 under their bulk contracts.
