EPLUS RELEASES INTERNET, TELEPHONE RATES AND SPECIAL
PACKAGES
Press Release: March 31st, 2004
With high anticipation of the rollout of
EPlus Broadband’s fiber optic services, Jackson Energy Authority
has released their competitive Internet and telephone rates as well
as special packages for customers on all three EPlus services of
cable, Internet, and telephone.
Under EPlus’ Internet Services, no
modems are required and customers will enjoy super high speed and
quality with NO DROPPED CONNECTIONS GUARANTEED! There are three
services levels provided (Basic, Intermediate, and Premium) with
prices and speeds for every budget.
All customers will benefit from EPlus’
telephone services as well. Kim Kersey, JEA’s Senior Vice
President of Telecommunications, says that with the changeover to
telephone services, customers will be able to keep their existing
phone numbers allowing for a smooth, easy, and seamless transition
from their current provider.
Like the Internet services, the telephone
division of EPlus also has three levels. The first is Basic Telephone
Package. For $15.95 a month customers will have local service with
Touchtone plus Call Waiting, Call Return and a $.07 long distance
rate.
The Standard Package will include all the
basic services plus a local area-wide service within a 40-mile radius,
Call ID, Three-Way Calling, Call Forward, Call Return, and a $.06
long distance rate.
The final package called Premium is $44.95
a month and includes all Basic and Standard features plus local
calling within the 731/901 area codes, Call Pick-up, Repeat Dialing,
Ringmaster, Call Block, Speed Dialing, Voicemail, Web-based telephone
management, and a $.05 long distance rate.
Aeneas Internet Services is currently the
only provider for EPlus’ Internet and cable services. However
other providers will join EPlus soon for more choices for customers.
Those customers who sign up for all three
EPlus services of cable, Internet, and telephone will see even more
discounts with the extremely affordable Triple Packages. These three
packages (Standard, Preferred, and Ultimate Triple Packs) are built
for every customer on any budget.
JEA officials say they want to make sure
their customers received the extra benefits and conveniences for
having all services thru JEA – water, wastewater, gas, electricity,
cable, Internet, telephone.
Under the Standard Triple Play Package,
customers will receive standard cable of 80 analog channels, basic
internet, and basic telephone services for only $74.95 a month saving
nearly $5.00 a month on already low prices.
The next level is Preferred Triple Pack
which includes 150 analog and digital channels, intermediate internet,
and standard telephone for $99.95 a month saving nearly $10.00 a
month.
Finally there is the Ultimate Triple Pack
