At our ‘Saturday with the GM’ events around the Island, we heard their requests for a more convenient location in town.“Today, with the grand opening of this new centre, we have responded. No more adventures on Laffan Street! Everything about this new office was conceived with our customers in mind, from the ease of access and proximity of parking, to the layout and placement of the counters and furniture.“Moreover, by locating in Washington Mall, we are pleased to show our support for Hamilton’s retail sector, to which we hope to bring more potential shoppers with our presence. This new centre is also a place where visitors can view demonstrations of our high-speed internet service, Broadband Link, as well as our HDTV offer and other advanced broadband services.“I should also point out that, with the opening of this new location, CableVision’s Laffan Street office, which houses our technical resources, will no longer be receiving customers. Today we invite everyone to enjoy the convenience of this new centre, where our friendly and well-trained Customer Care Associates stand ready to help with all your needs.”Mr Gosling said: “I am delighted that Bermuda CableVision decided to open this new customer care centre in the Washington Mall. Following other recent store openings, the launch of this facility further augments Hamilton as a great place to shop, dine and run all the necessary errands. I offer Bermuda CableVision heartfelt congratulations on the opening of their new office.”Mr Roban said: “I applaud Bermuda CableVision for taking this opportunity to make the lives of its customers a little easier. The customer care centre has clearly been designed to enhance the experience of being a CableVision customer. With this Grand Opening, CableVision serves to further bolster the offering of the Washington Mall and I hope that even more shoppers are encouraged to stop by.”The full-service customer care centre is situated in the newest section of Washington Mall, near the Church Street entrance. It includes a reception area and technical areas for equipment and staff. An array of flat-screen TVs are also on display showing high-definition TV, premium channels and new additions to the line-up.
