GT&T should not have internet monopoly

Dear Editor,

I am very unhappy and frustrated at GT&T’s continued monopolization of the internet. The promised upgrade of internet speed across the country has become such a long wait, and when you qualify for an upgrade, you can only get 1.5Mb. After paying $9980 for over five years all that you are getting is a reduction in price. How backward is this? I cannot get 5MB, because of the distance I am living from the exchange. This is the most absurd explanation which I cannot fathom.

Why promise faster bandwidths and then turn around and tell the majority of people that they cannot get more than 1.5Mb. I hope the new government removes GT&T from control over the internet, and allows companies like Digicel who have the capacity and are willing to offer people more, to become providers. GT&T is taking all of us for a ride, and in the year 2015 I cannot have proper internet connectivity at my home.

Yours faithfully,
N Bacchus
