Happy 6 years, freedom Fiber!

By Britton Lightsey

In March, during the midst of all the storm work and damage, Tombigbee Communications connected its 16,000th customer to freedom FIBER. This month marks 6 years since we celebrated our ribbon cutting ceremony to officially announce the beginning of this journey. It has been a journey filled with both rewards and challenges. At the end of the day, the team works daily to overcome the issues to achieve the reward—helping improve Northwest Alabama. We are looking forward to helping more people as we continue to connect approximately 500 new customers monthly.

For those of you have been connected for a while, do you know we now offer a middle package for our residential customers? As more people are using more and more devices and becoming much more connect- ed, our 500 Mbps plan is our most popular. You can upgrade to this for just $10 more a month than our basic package. If you’re looking for the best of the best, we offer our 1 Gig plan for $79.95. Our service is symmetrical–your upload speeds and your download speeds are the same. This is something only achievable with a fiber connection. If you’re ready to make the change, please give us a call during regular business hours.

Next month, you’ll see information about our Annual Meeting in August. We are working on finalizing the plans for this now. Don’t forget–by sending in your ballots, you’ll receive a bill credit. We hope you have a good month and a good start to the summer season!
