In the meantime I am gonna have a drink and smoke and wait for your reply cause I wana be drunk and high when I read your “CrAzY” answer mercey.

God save us all and the prisoners too

They don’t have to pay expensive roaming charges to send instant messages or check email. And they don’t have to pay the internet charges on the cruise ship.

Dial, DSL and Dedicated internet are currently offered to commercial businesses. TBI have had this license since inception in 1996. This service is no different. Through the partnership with WEDCO this is perfectly within the current regulations. In fact TBI offer hot spot services on behalf of other businesses already.

Do your research first before typing.

The key is to STAY OPEN late! I went there one day last summer and the place was a dead zone and it was only 7pm! If the stores don’t want to stay open late then allow vendors to set up shop (for free) just to keep the tourist entertained!

Any Mcdonalds, public librarys, many hotels are open, Lowes, Home depot, any of the chain restaurants, never mind driving through neighbor hoods & finding open WIFI.

A shame a free or low cost service is not available here in Bermuda in places like Dockyard & Hamilton.

Many of you are congratulating TBI but both WEDCO and TBI are in the wrong…

While Bermudians pay an arm and a leg for internet! But yet Bermuda is still trailing way behind the world in internet speeds. Studies show that Bermuda is approx. in 80th place. Meanwhile we pay over 4 times more then the country in 1st place. hmmmm

I was just telling someone a few days ago that at some point in the future ALL internet will be free! Looks like we are moving in the right direction.

As I travel around Bermuda I find there are literally dozens of “Open” hot spots.

Hey, why pay when you can get it for free!

TBI have been in Court for 4 months lamenting that Digicel has acted outside of their licence (offering Long Distance telephone services).

They now start offering Wi-Fi Services, this when it appears they do not have a licence that allows them to be involved in any ISP related services. What a Hot Mess !

TBI do you have a ISP licence that allow you to do ISP related services ? We would love to know.

The Ministry now have another hot mess on their hands. What will they do ? Digicel offers Long Distance, Cellone is now doing the same. TBI must have said, they are all messing around in our business, we will do the same…

The lunatics have taken over the asylum
