Vonage expands in B.C.


MISSISSAUGA – “After months of suffering with substandard phone service, British Columbians can now fire their phone company in favour of a better choice,” said Vonage Canada on Wednesday – taking a shot at the incumbent, Telus, and its recent labour woes.

The U.S. VOIP company announced the availability of its flat-rate service to six new communities in British Columbia beyond Vancouver and Victoria, where Vonage is currently available. These new communities are: Penticton, Abbotsford, Kamloops, Kelowna, Richmond, and Vernon.

"Over the last couple of months residents of BC have seen a considerable reduction in the level of service provided by their incumbent phone company,” said Bill Rainey, president, Vonage Canada. They deserve better. Vonage Internet phone service provides a true alternative by offering what we call ‘more phone and less bill’ and superior customer service."
