Today Shaw Communications Inc. announces an immediate speed
upgrade to their base Internet product, Shaw Extreme, to provide Shaw customers with untouchable
value and a premier Internet experience.
As the anchor service for the Shaw Plan Personalizer, Shaw Extreme is also available as an individual
Internet offering. Effective today, speeds will be upgraded from 15 to 25 Mbps download, and from 1 to
2.5 Mbps upload. This upgrade is the first step as Shaw looks to unveil its new Internet packaging in
early summer.
'It’s an exciting time at Shaw as we begin to create a world-class Internet product, giving our customers
the ultimate experience in connectivity and entertainment,” said Peter Bissonnette, President, Shaw
Communications Inc. “The Shaw Extreme speed upgrade is just the first spark of a whole new world of
entertainment and offerings to come. We’re building the network of the future and our customers are at
the very heart of it.'
Customers who currently subscribe to Shaw Extreme will be automatically upgraded to the new speeds
over the next month at no extra cost.
