What about CityLink? We use their dark fibre services and they seem very competent.
What's cheap? The LEB offers I've seen in NZ only exist due to HD (hd.net.nz) in Auckland.
I know QuickWeb (an old LEB favourite) has a presence in Christchurch: http://quickweb.co.nz/quickweb-nz-xen-vps.php
I know for ZappieHost, they have servers in NZ, have VPS with them and all good for past few months.
I would want to at least have 100 GB of bandwidth, and they charge $149 for just 80 GB.
Yep, I don't think you're going to find what you want in Christchurch or Wellington. If you're after international bandwidth you're best bet would be Auckland (due to the undersea cables being there).
Here's a list of LEB-ish providers I know of in Auckland:
@jamesme NZ is hard, I have a node there for cjdns peers with KgoVPS, and I get 250GB BW a month with rollover and 128mb of ram for under $25/quarter with Xen on quarterly billing. I know if I go over that, Kro (main guy over there) will let me either go over it for free or cheap so long as other users aren't eating a ton of b/w, so I stick with him.
ZappieHost is a better deal if OpenVZ is fine, but I don't care to rock the boat and (for NZ) service has been stable on KgoVPS, usually running a few months of uptime on my boxen. Not going on 9+ months uptimr like some boxes I have stateside, but I can't and do not expect that in NZ.
