ISP
InvicTel has acquired the remaining name and website address of defunct UK business internet provider
Lixxus, which
went bankrupt in May 2010 without warning (
here) and subsequently left hundreds of customers in a state of broadband limbo.
The impact of Lixxus's collapse was felt for many weeks after its departure because the ISP seemed to ignore Ofcom rules and
failed to correctly migrate customers before shutting up shop (
here). Never the less InvicTel remains confident that it can use Lixxus to "
increase the company reputation".
InvicTel Statement
We are pleased to announce that Invictel have recently acquired the Lixxus name and website address.
We are aware of the problems that Lixxus and CFLD have had over the past couple of years and we are keen to have Lixxus up and running in order to increase the company reputation.
All Lixxus assets are now apart of Invictel and anyone wishing to discuss any aspect of Lixxus can contact us here at Invictel using our usual contact details, which can be found on our contact page, http://www.invictel.co.uk/index.php/home-broadband/contact-us/
This is a very exciting time for us, and we hope to welcome past Lixxus customers back to its new reliable parent company.
InvicTel could face an
uphill struggle in its noble efforts to restore the reputation of an ISP that left the scene so abruptly.
