There have been many questions and concerns about Google’s new updated privacy policy. Last week, the Big G started posting notifications that it is going to change the way it handles customer information. Here is exactly what is happening:
TOAST.net is excited to offer 4 new Business Broadband plans
TOAST.net is excited to announce 3 new Business Fiber Plans
TOAST.net has added two new residential Fiber Internet plans!
This coming Monday, Aug. 17th, we will be switching to universal pricing -- one price for all DSL speeds (around $65) and one price for Fiber (around $90). So if anyone is thinking they could use one of our basic service plans, now's the time to order. For example: DSL - 12 Mbps for $43.95/month - Great for seniors on a fixed income. Plenty of speed for surfing the web, checking email, and streaming for 1 or 2 TVs. Fiber - 60 Mbps for $45.00/month - Awesome solution for just about any household. Note that fiber is a new technology and only about 20% of the country can get it. Check your address to see what service you qualify for and order by Sunday, 8/16/20! This is your last chance to lock in the speed and price of a great DSL or Fiber plan before they are grandfathered!
