Letter in Today's Dahlonega Nugget.
Windstream refuses to explain why they will not deploy the Gigabit Fiber Internet in Lumpkin County and elsewhere.
Windstream can
support economic
development in
our area
Dear Editor:
I read Ronald Chick's letter
("Inadequate broadband
internet service is costing
our area growth" in the Oct.
8 edition of The Nugget and
wanted to share a few comments.
Thanks to the completion
of a number of network
enhancements this year,
Windstream now provides 24
megabit-per-second Internet
service in Mr. Chick's area,
as well as to homes in many
parts of Lumpkin and White
counties. Speed is dependent
on a location's distance
from our serving equipment
however, so I encourage individual
customers to contact
Windstream at 800-347-1991
to determine what speeds are
available at their homes.
With regard to economic
development efforts, Windstream
can provide any level
of service that a business customer
needs, and we are eager
to help the community grow.
It should be obvious that it's
good for our business when
the local economy expands.
Of course, there are always
costs associated with delivering
Internet service, regardless
of who the carrier is, but
Windstream is a national
provider with an extensive
suite of business products
and competitive pricing.
We have a robust network
in North Georgia as well as
a strong team of managers,
technicians and sales representatives,
and all of us take a
great deal of pride in serving
our customers and serving
them well.
William L. (Bill) Scott
Area Manager-Operations,
Windstream
