Customers can add up to five wireless devices to receive MTS bundle
savings
WINNIPEG, July 30, 2014 /CNW/ - (TSX:MBT) MTS, Manitoba's leading
telecommunications provider, is now giving customers the opportunity to
bundle up to six eligible services and save up to $50 on their monthly
bill.
MTS is the first and only telecommunications provider in Manitoba to
offer a flexible six-service bundle. Customers can choose MTS TV,
high-speed Internet, or home phone services, and up to five MTS
postpaid wireless plans at the same service address to create a bundle
that provides exceptional overall value.
"The MTS MyBundle program is unique in Manitoba and provides unparalleled value for
customers," said MTS President Kelvin Shepherd. "Our bundle strategy
has been very successful, supporting strong growth in customers taking
multiple services in their homes. We have also seen that bundled
customers are more likely to choose MTS as their preferred service
provider, and that these customers want to add more MTS services to
their bundle as their household communications and entertainment needs
evolve."
The number of MTS bundled customers continues to grow and is now at more
than 100,000 with almost 60 per cent subscribing to four MTS services
or more. Because most households have more than one wireless device,
MTS has now expanded its bundling options to allow customers to bundle
more wireless devices.
