Ting to offer gigabit fiber Internet in Fullerton, CA
April 08 2019 - 6:00AM
Ting, a division of Tucows (NASDAQ: TCX, TSX: TC) is pleased to
announce that Fullerton, CA will be the next town to get crazy fast
fiber Internet from Ting. Residents can pre-order now at
ting.com/fullerton.
Ting will provide service in Fullerton through a partnership
with SiFi networks, an international fiber-optic network developer.
This partnership model separates the construction, ownership and
operation of fiber infrastructure from the provisioning of Internet
service and customer support. With SiFi Networks taking on the
former, Ting can scale more quickly and focus on its core business
strengths of providing ultra-fast, low latency Internet service
with a top-rated customer experience. Ting will be one of two
Internet service partners on SiFi’s network. Once completed, the
Fullerton build will add just over 50,000 shared serviceable
addresses to Ting’s potential addressable market.
“Fullerton is a solid market for us, with a strong, dense and
diverse population of families along with colleges, beautiful
public spaces, and businesses big and small,” said Elliot Noss,
Tucows’ CEO. “Fullerton will be great for our business. We are
pleased to embark on a California footprint, to test the Ting brand
and customer experience through direct competition, and to see
alternative models emerging in the ongoing fiberization of
America.”
Ting is part of Tucows, a quietly, wildly successful Internet
company founded in 1993 that built its reputation providing
products people really want, and an outstanding customer
experience. Ting builds, operates, and provides service on fiber
networks in select markets across the US, and has differentiated
itself from its competition by offering crazy fast symmetrical
gigabit fiber Internet access, a deep local presence, and genuinely
human customer support. Fullerton will be Ting’s eighth market, and
first in southern California.
Ting expects to light its first customers in Fullerton towards
the end of this year.
Pre-orders are open for Fullerton
Fullerton residents can pre-order Ting crazy fast fiber Internet
now at ting.com/fullerton. A one-time $9 pre-order is returned as a
credit on a customer’s first Ting bill. Pre-ordering secures the
best possible break on start-up costs on Ting gigabit service,
including the full cost of installation.
Ting Internet offers symmetrical gigabit fiber Internet for
residential, small business, and enterprise customers. Home gigabit
Internet costs $79 a month. Business gigabit Internet costs $139 a
month. Enterprise Internet service levels, installations and
pricing vary and can be discussed with the Fullerton Enterprise
team.
CEO Elliot Noss, VP Networks Adam Eisner, Director, Market
Development and Government Affairs Monica Webb, and other members
of the Ting team are always available to speak with local and
national media. Well, not literally always but you’ll find they’re
pretty available and approachable.
