Just received an update re our excellent Internet service






Internet Disruption Update



Dear Valued Customer,

With regard to the current disruption in Internet services, we would like to give you an update in terms of the current situation.


The continued disruption in Internet services in the country was caused by the severing of two undersea cables off the coast of Mumbai which has resulted in breakdown of 8 international links out of 20. The impact of this disruption has been more pronounced because of the disruption in the capacity of not one but two submarine cable service providers which is unprecedented. In such circumstances, eCompany has done its best to prioritize Internet traffic to ensure that normal Internet browsing and essential traffic will continue to work smoothly. eCompany is making every effort possible on a round the clock basis to resolve this situation.

Both providers are working to ensure that these links are restored at the earliest. Repair work is expected to be completed by next week.

We take this opportunity to thank you for your patience and understanding during this period and we will keep you updated with developments in this respect.

Sincerely

Customer Service Team
