Cable & Wireless launches new NI business package

International telecommunications group, Cable & Wireless, today launched a new voice package for Northern Irish business customers.

Cable & Wireless claims their Business Talk package will provide a minimum of 15% savings over certain BT services on call charges, with no hidden costs, such as set-up or minimum call charges.

Gareth Murphy, regional director, Northern Ireland, Cable & Wireless, said: “Cable & Wireless is taking a bold step to re-invigorate the voice market in Northern Ireland by delivering real cost savings and enhanced services, coupled with simple, hassle free migration to our network.

"We are aiming to increase our customer base by challenging BT’s dominance – a tactic we have successfully adopted through the launch of our carrier pre-selection services, used by customers such as Lloyds TSB and Tesco to address the residential market. The promise of instant cost savings that are easy to implement is appealing to Northern Irish businesses of all sizes.”

Targeted at Northern Irish businesses of all sizes, Business Talk will be available both directly from Cable & Wireless and through its network of channel partners from December 1.
