CellC Whoosh - A quick survey

[OMB]

There's been a lot of debate around the CellC Whoooosh experience since it was launched, some people seem to have had a great experience and others have been fairly vehement in terms of their bad experience.

So I thought it would be interesting to do a quick and dirty survey to get a feel of how many good experiences vs how many bad.

Please post to this thread answering the following:

1. How long have you had your SpeedStick?
2. Is it 21.6 Mbps or 7.2 Mbps dongle?
3. Huawei or ZTE?
4. Have you had any problems with your CellC connection Yes/No?
5. If yes has the problem been rectified to your satisfaction Yes/No?
6. If no how long has it lasted?
7. Are you happy with the current speeds you are getting?
8. On a scale of 1 to 10 rate your CellC experience, 1 being totally P'd off, 10 being CellC is the best thing since sliced bread

Please just answer the questions, no stories as I'm sure those have already been posted elsewhere, I'll collate the data in about a week or so depending on the response.

My experience below:

1. 6 months
2. 21.6
3. Huawei
4. Yes
5. Yes
6. N/A
7. No
8. 7
