Poplar Bluff Lands New Digital Telephone Technology

The City of Poplar Bluff has taken a technological leap over other municipalities in the State of Missouri by having the city cable plant used to provide a local telephone service.  Big River Telephone has announced the delivery of Digital Telephone Service utilizing the cable network in the city.

This Advanced Digital Service is the first time a local telephone company has delivered the service over City Cable’s fiber plant.  Digital Telephone service from Big River Telephone provides the residents with another competitive offering for them to choose.  The service is approximately 28% lower than the local monopoly.  The service also provides Internet availability at prices up to 60% lower than the existing offerings in the city for broadband services.

Digital Telephone Service is an advanced offering that provides the clearest voice connection, features, voice mail, and broadband services at extremely competitive prices.  The customer can keep their same phone number and enjoy the ability to get unlimited calling plans.  Digital Telephone Service provides 911 and all the operator services of the traditional telephone service.  Along with the Digital Telephone Service, customers can get access to High Speed Internet at prices significantly lower than the available offerings in the area.  The customer can mix and match cable, telephone, and broadband services that best meet their needs.
