Coffee Republic Chain Introduces FREE Wi-Fi Hotspots
Posted: 15th Apr, 2008 By: MarkJ
People that visit coffee bar's belonging to the Coffee Republic chain will soon benefit from free wireless broadband Internet access (Wi-Fi Hotspots) while they drink. The news follows successful trials in Reading and Weybridge, which helped to bring about an increase in customer numbers:
The free service, which will go live from 1st May 2008, will be delivered by Commsport, a UK provider of Wi-Fi Hotspots and Internet kiosks.
Currently, the UK boasts several hotspots but the majority are pay-as-you-go or contract services which means customers could be paying up to £4.50 an hour* to use the technology. By using the new service at Coffee Republic, which is linked to a purchase, customers who use Wi-Fi for an hour a week could be saving themselves up to £234 a year.
Steven Bartlett, Chief Executive Officer, Coffee Republic said: The launch of free Wi-Fi in Coffee Republic Bars will be a huge benefit and attraction to our customers. People are increasingly looking for ways to access the Internet on the move, they want to lead a flexible and modern lifestyle and we need to help them do that with the service we provide. This new service in our Bars will give them a new evolution in technology in a warm, comfortable environment.
