Broadstripe Offers New 'Broadstripe Forever' Packages

CHESTERFIELD, Mo., Feb. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Broadstripe today announced the addition of two new Broadstripe Forever Lifetime Price Guarantee bundles for customers who already have an alternate video provider. One bundle provides customers with high-speed Internet and unlimited nationwide home phone service for only $64.99 per month for life. The other bundle provides customers with Broadstripe Extreme Internet (up to 15 Mbps) and unlimited nationwide home phone service for only $79.99 per month for life.

Broadstripe recently launched Broadstripe Forever, offering new and existing residential customers one low price of $130 per month for life for (V)ideo, high-speed (I)nternet access and home (P)hone service (V.I.P.) The success of the program far exceeded expectations and Broadstripe Forever subscribers now number in the thousands.

"Customers and employees love this program; in fact, we have surpassed the aggressive sales targets that we set when we launched Broadstripe Forever. Both groups appreciate our commitment to providing the best overall value in in-home communications and entertainment," said Tony Lent, Chief Commercial Officer for Broadstripe. "With these two new Broadstripe Forever bundles, we are appealing to an even wider audience by extending the packages to include options that don't require purchasing video service."

Given the harsh early-termination penalties charged by satellite providers, some prospective Broadstripe Forever customers have been wary of making the move from satellite to cable service. These new bundles afford subscribers the opportunity to take advantage of Broadstripe's revolutionary Lifetime Price Guarantee program without having to obtain video service.

"We received feedback from our competitors' customers and we listened," said Lent. "The new bundles are in direct response to prospective customers' requests for more options and greater flexibility."

The addition of the new Broadstripe Forever bundles comes at a time when cable and satellite providers are instituting annual rate increases. According to a November 2008 statement from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), cable industry prices have more than doubled over the past decade. In these tough economic times, Broadstripe's Lifetime Price Guarantee program rewards its customers' loyalty.

For more information about how to take advantage of this revolutionary Lifetime Price Guarantee offer, customers can call 1-877-4TV-4EVR or visit www.broadstripeforever.com.
