VMedia Inc. is pleased to announce that it has completed the launch of its unique TV, internet and home phone triple play services in Quebec, BC and Alberta. Already a successful competitor to the larger telecom and cable providers throughout Ontario, VMedia is now able to offer more choice and better prices to nearly five million more Canadian homes. The services are now available in the major urban markets, including the greater Montreal area, Vancouver, Victoria, Calgary and Edmonton and their surrounding areas, with other markets to follow over the next 12 months.
“This is a very exciting and timely development, as we have been getting many requests for our service from the new markets since the CRTC awarded VMedia licences to allow us to offer TV services across Canada just over a year ago,” said Alexei Tchernobrivets, Chief Executive Officer of VMedia. “Millions more Canadians will now have a real alternative to the big companies in triple-play TV, internet and phone services. This is a great moment for us and, as a new competitive source of TV service, great for consumers.”
First launched in Ontario in April 2024, VMedia has proven itself to be an important new provider of TV, internet and phone services in each market that it serves. As a start-up VMedia grew by word of mouth, and has been welcomed by many homes seeking more choice, lower prices, and better service in these increasingly essential, and increasingly costly, services.
“Only VMedia is now able to reach over 80% of Canadian homes with triple play services,” ” said George Burger, a co-founder and advisor to VMedia, “and VMedia’s telecom and broadcasting service model gives us unique economies of scale that allow us to offer triple play services to Canadians at the best prices in the market. For example, we offer our ‘skinny’ basic package that we have heard so much about for $17.95, with all five US networks included, well below the prices charged by the big companies. With triple play services eating up more and more of our household expenses, all Canadian homes deserve nothing less.”
With the full lineup of English, French and multicultural channels offered in packages large and small, as well as on a standalone or pick a package basis, VMedia offers more choice and better prices in TV services than any of its competitors. And in addition, VMedia delivers its content through its proprietary VBox, a unique device that is a set top box and media player combined. This means subscribers can access their favourite channels, as well as any app offered on GooglePlay, through one device, and one seamless interface.
