Bermuda Telecommunications

There are a number of competing telecommunications providers in Bermuda. Long-distance call costs in Bermuda have fallen substantially since 1997.

Providers of a wide range of telecoms services in the jurisdiction include:

  • Cable & Wireless
  • Logic Communications
  • North Rock Communications
  • TeleBermuda International

In January, 2006, Caribbean telecommunications operator Digicel announced a major programme of investment aimed at expanding its regional wireless network into new territories in 2006.

According to Colm Delves, CEO of Digicel Group, the company's strategy for the year ahead was to build upon the momentum gathered in 2005 when Digicel received approvals for its acquisition of Cingular Wireless’s operation in Bermuda (where it is based).

Digicel has operations in fifteen Caribbean countries with a combined population of 14 million, and the company’s overall investment in the region is approaching US$1 billion since its launch in the region in 2001.

Digicel’s network now encompasses a wide area of the Caribbean basin, including Anguilla, Antigua & Barbuda, Aruba, Barbados, Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, Curacao, Dominica, Grenada, Haiti, Jamaica, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Trinidad & Tobago.

Cable and Wireless has also announced a significant investment in upgrading its telecoms infrastructure, including a new fibre-optic cable linking Bermuda with the US with 700 times more capacity than the existing cable.
