Residents and businesses in Ameila’s Ward, Linden will become the latest in Guyana to access GTT’s Fibre internet service, as the telecommunications company expanded its cutting-edge broadband technology to Region Ten.
The Ameila’s Ward, Linden roll-out keeps GTT on course to achieving its goal of “Reliably Connecting our Customers” by delivering GTT Fibre to ten thousand new homes in 2021, providing subscribers with more bandwidth over a greater distance and better prices, the company said in a press release.
The company recently unveiled its GTT Fibre service as a major upgrade to the former Blaze service, offering significant increases in upload and download speeds and reliable connectivity at reduced rates.
GTT’s Chief Operations Officer for Home Solutions & Fixed Services, Eshwar Thakurdin said it is a proud moment for the company to deliver its fibre optic internet service to Lindeners.
“We are extremely pleased to add Linden to the growing number of residential and commercial districts in Guyana now benefitting from GTT Fibre. GTT Fibre offers fast and reliable internet for all communication needs whether it be for education, entertainment, or supporting you in developing your careers and businesses, even in a pandemic” he said
“We have been working since the beginning of this year on this expansion. The current global challenges in acquiring vital equipment and resources to make this happen did affect us but did not deter us. Today, we are happy to deliver on our promise of reliably connecting our customers in Linden,” he added.
Chief Executive Officer of GTT, Damian Blackburn said the company is happy to deliver on another promise and reminded of the company’s continued investment to bring its 21st century highways vision alive.
