The Guyana Telephone and Telegraph Company (GT&T) says it is almost two-thirds complete in its plans to upgrade customers across the country with faster internet.
The US-owned company is aiming at June month-end to finish the project.
In a statement, the company which has the monopoly on landlines and overseas calls, disclosed that three months after the launch of its enhanced internet service, some 60 percent of the work has been completed and “customers are now experiencing the fastest and most affordable internet in Guyana”.
GT&T’s internet customers were automatically upgraded to speeds as much as up to five times without having to pay more.
“Customer feedback has been extremely positive with customers indicating, that they are indeed experiencing the speeds that were promised, and are excited about all the things they can now do more efficiently on the high speed internet network.”
Service to current GT&T internet customers continues to be automatically upgraded.
“The services are being offered to both residential and business customers and are being sold in packages of Bronze, Silver and Gold within the speed range of 1.5 Mbps to 10Mbps. Free telephone filters are also provided for our customers with the aim of aiding in the experience of maximum speeds.”
GT&T said that a small number of customers that do not qualify for higher speeds because of where their homes are located, have been receiving 50 percent price reductions on their current plans.
“The roll out continues ahead of schedule with plans of completion by the end of June 2015.”
