Comtec continues to take share of agency broadband market
Comtec Communications (CCL) has announced three wins for its agency broadband internet product.
The company has signed up Worldchoice Travel’s head office, which includes 14 branches; Leeds Co-op, which includes 20 branches; and Carrick Travel’s head office and its six branch network.
The companies have opted for a broadband connection from CCL, a sister company to Comtec that launched in June 2003. CCL claims to be the fastest growing network service provider to the retail leisure industry.
Comtec group director and CCL managing director, Daman Singh told TravelMole: “When you tell people it works at such a speed and that they can make serious savings, some agents just don’t believe it.
“But it is a no-brainer – to get another £1,000 or £2,000 commission you have to sell £20,000 worth of holidays. But we will give you ten times the customers service and you will say yourself up to £4,000. One customers saved himself 20,000 over a few years.”
Mr Singh says CCL is responsible for pushing down the prices of broadband internet connections offered by companies like ntl.
Worldchoice Travel operations director, Bill Pickering rolled out the CCL product after testing it in his Widnes branch. He said broadband has offered the company “substantial savings” and said he thought broadband would revolutionise the industry in the way that low cost carriers have impacted prices in the air travel sector.
