This was very bad news for everyone at BTS because, even though Fibre and IPTV may be a small part of our work today, it will grow dramatically over time. Bell’s stated reason was that, while the service we provide Bell is top-notch, our scheduling restrictions will make it difficult for them to serve their future customers on the days and times they need us – increasingly on weekends.
