Your December Welcomm Newsletter.

As usual December is proving to be another busy month and with Christmas fast approaching we have some fantastic promotions and news to share with you. Plus with O2 recently announcing their  4G trial in London, we also highlight the benefits that this super fast broadband service will offer you. Please also find below our opening hours over the Christmas period.

Many thanks
Aidan Piper, Managing Director.

 Happy Christmas

 

   

On behalf of Welcomm I would like to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a prosperous new year. 

This year we have taken the decision to make a donation to The Stroke Association instead of sending out Christmas cards. The Stroke Association is particularly close to my heart, so I am proud for Welcomm to be supporting such a worthy charity. Our support for The Stroke Association will be on going and we are in the process of planning several fund raising events throughout 2012. 

Thank you for your continued business and support throughout 2011 and have a Happy Christmas. 
 

Chris Stanton, Chairman.

O2 roll out UK's first 4G service

 

 

O2 are the first network to switch on their super fast 4G service, as part of the UK's biggest trial yet of this new technology.
During this nine month trial in London around 1,000 individuals will be equipped with the latest O2 4G technology, offering them a glimpse into the future of superfast mobile broadband.
Over 25 4G sites have now gone live across the capital, covering a combined area of 40 square kilometres, stretching from Hyde Park to The O2 in Greenwich.
At these speeds, the time to download a 500MB file could be as fast as under one minute, compared to over 5 minutes on 3G. The 25 4G London masts can carry more data than O2's entire national 3G network, demonstrating how they will offer faster broadband speeds to allow users the bandwidth to be able to gain a full range of advanced IT services, including cheaper calls through VoIP.

 
     
Super Fast Broadband from BE and O2

                                                       

Following Telefonica's acquisition of BE Broadband in 2006, O2 have managed to become the 2nd largest fixed line providers in the UK, behind BT. In addition O2 are the only provider in the UK that can offer a fixed line and mobile network.
With extensive investment over the next 2 years, O2 plan to increase the number of their exchanges 4 fold.  O2 currently has 1,300 exchanges enabled for Broadband (with 70% coverage), and this is due to increase to 5,500 exchanges enabled for FTTC (Fibre to the Cabinet) in 2013, which will be more than BT and Talk Talk Business combined. With this ongoing development by 2015 O2 will become the biggest network provider for business in the UK.

This super-fast broadband network, offers a high quality, uninterrupted connection with download and upload speeds up to 150% faster than any other DSL provider on the market. What separates BE's service from other providers is that data speeds are unaffected by peak time traffic, as the network is constantly upgraded to ensure peak traffic remains at 70% capacity.
This next generation broadband service, uses fibre to ensure high quality data bandwidth that support Voice over Internet, Video, Cloud hosted services and data streaming, all offering business significant cost savings.
Find out if you are lucky enough to be in a BE exchange area, by contacting us on 0800 0646464.
