Furthering on our success in 2005, NewNet
once again picked up the prestigious Best Consumer Broadband award at the ISPA
event, held in London on Friday 14th March 2008, beating such well-known
rivals as Virgin Media.
The 10th annual Internet awards, organised by the Internet Service
Providers Association, is the premier event celebrating the cream of
the UK Internet industry and recognises companies who have responded to
the challenges of the past year.
The judges’ citation noted that they were extremely pleased to
see NewNet pushing the limits of broadband capabilities in a consumer
market by introducing its own Local Loop Unbundled (LLU) service,
offering download speeds of up to 24meg.
To put the award into context, it is predicted that UK broadband
subscriptions will reach around 21 million by the end of 2012,
comprising of 19 million consumer lines and two million business
lines. Despite intense commercial pressures, NewNet has
demonstrated commitment to offering real value for money with broadband
services starting at just £8.95 per month for up to 24meg and has
achieved an enviable reputation for UK based customer service.
John Mobley, Managing Director, NewNet plc commented: “With so
many major brand names in the UK broadband market place, our industry
has never been so competitive. We have responded by introducing a
leading edge up to 24meg connection in order to maintain our
competitive advantage. This ISPA award reflects and celebrates
the hard work and focus all teams within NewNet have put in to make our
broadband service the very best in terms of speed, performance and
excellence in customer service.”
