Perth, Scotland (PRWEB) September 17, 2006 -- Following the news posted today that one of Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise partners who has been providing satellite broadband services across the region has closed stranding hundreds of customers, Perth based Bridge Broadband Services Ltd has announced a support package for stranded users which includes free hardware for some sites.
The free hardware is available for customers selecting the office 500M package or greater, subject to a 12 month contract and a third party installation fee of about £300.
General Manager Keith Fergie comments, “It looks like a lot of customers will be left high and dry and for many satellite customers internet access has become their primary business channel and a vital home and community resource. Anyone who needs advice on regaining internet access is urged to register on our website, (www.bridgebroadbandservices.com / or contact Bridge Broadband Services on 01738 583220 during normal business hours or 07717 415008 out of hours and we will do our best to get them up and running again as soon as is practical.
“From a regional perspective it does leave a considerable hole in Scotland because of the work Ouranos/Aramiska has been doing with Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise, which from our perspective in Perth would be a great shame to lose the momentum,” concludes Fergie.
About Bridge Broadband services
Bridge Broadband Services was formed in 1998, initially to provide high-speed broadband services for more remote areas using satellite technology. This has seen the company develop business both locally and internationally meeting the need for secure satellite based high-speed networks in challenging and remote environments. A high profile success was with the Mobile Online Learning Initiative (MOLI) a training classroom in a coach that has travelled all over Scotland since 2003 hosting over 2000 people on the satellite broadband driven workstations. The same technology was used by Bridge to provide the connectivity for Robbie William’s European Tour. In 2004 the company launched the first version of its GuardianBox, offering secure broadband connectivity for home users and small businesses.
