Suddenlink: 250,000 IP voice customers and counting

Suddenlink Communications' subscriber base may pale in comparison to large cable MSOs (it's actually the eighth largest U.S.-based MSO), but the service provider has been making progress with its IP voice offerings for business and residential customers. The MSO announced this week that it now has over 250,000 active residential and business voice customers, up from a scant 30,000 subscribers only two years ago when it offered the service in only some of its markets. Today, its customers are making and receiving an average of up to 6 million calls daily over its private, managed IP-based network.

"Our phone service is increasingly popular, as more customers realize they can get the same, or in many cases better, quality of service than they've enjoyed in the past for substantially less money," said Suddenlink chief operating officer Tom McMillin in a statement.
