Calgary, Alberta CANADA, October 17, 2005 /FSC/ - Cybersurf Corp. (CY - TSX Venture), one of Canada's leading Internet technology companies, announces the launch of it's new service bundle available to customers in the Calgary area featuring free High Speed Cable Internet Service when customers purchase Cybersurf's Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP") and LD Service. This service bundle enables customers to make both local and long distance calls, and enjoy High Speed Internet access using state-of-the-art technology. This service bundle is expected to be rolled out to additional markets in due course.
The Company's VoIP Service is currently priced at a competitive $39.95 per month and includes unlimited local calling. North American long distance direct dialed calls are currently priced at $0.03 per minute anytime. As is the case with other competitive VoIP services, consumers are required to have an underlying high speed Internet connection in order to obtain Cybersurf's VoIP Service. Customers who purchase this service will therefore also receive the Company's High Speed Cable Internet Service at no additional charge. This service bundle is only initially available to customers who can be accessed by the Company's high speed cable network in the Calgary area with additional major markets being launched in due course.
"Although competitors still face many challenges in today's regulatory environment, we are pleased with recent CRTC rulings with respect to VoIP that enable us to advance our mandate of providing Canadian consumers high quality services at the best possible prices", stated Mr. Paul Mercia, President and CEO of Cybersurf Corp. Mr. Mercia also added, "The current environment will allow Cybersurf to deliver VoIP services based on its own low cost infrastructure, while maintaining profit margins that provide long-term value to the Company's shareholders".
