FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Bathurst, NB – Eastlink officially launches its mobile service in Bathurst today, following its recent launch in Miramichi just a few months ago.
This is part of a $26+M mobile network expansion in New Brunswick, which will bring greater coverage, and more choice and competition to more New Brunswickers.
“We’re very proud to be further expanding our mobile network and service in northern New Brunswick,” said Jeff Gillham, CEO. “Our network sites are built and our store is ready to welcome customers with an interactive, personalized experience.”
To date, Eastlink has invested nearly half a billion dollars ($450M) since its launch in 2013 to grow its mobile service into more Canadian communities including Bathurst, Miramichi, Fredericton, Shediac, Sussex and Moncton in New Brunswick featuring Rollover Data, the ability to change your plan anytime, 5G-ready service, contract buyout enabling ease of switching, and $0 down on any phone.
“We are so pleased with Eastlink’s investment in expanding its mobile network to Bathurst,” said Bathurst Mayor Kim Chamberlain. “Access to strong, competitive mobile options helps to strengthen our local economy and give people more reasons to live and work here.”
Eastlink has invested more than $40M to bring its mobile service to NB. Mobile expansion in the province continues as the company advances its plans to launch in the Acadian Peninsula next.
