Spark customers offered special deal on Lightbox

Spark home broadband customers who sign up to the new Internet TV service Lightbox will receive six months at half price.

Announced today, the offer is in addition to the 30 days free that all Lightbox customers are entitled to.

Spark Home, Mobile and Business Chief Executive, Chris Quin, says he had trialled Lightbox himself over the past few weeks and "now couldn’t imagine life without it."

“It’s great to see Lightbox using the power of the Internet to give New Zealanders access to insanely good TV," he says.

"With the service launching today, we want to encourage Spark customers to be among the first to jump on board – and what better way to do that than to give them a great deal.

“From Breaking Bad to Boston Legal to Dora the Explorer – and exclusive new releases such as Vikings, Outlander, Arrested Development and 24 - there’s something for everyone.

"Once you start watching, you’ll find it difficult to stop and I’m confident Spark customers who take up this deal will soon be as addicted as I am.”
