Frontier’s existing distribution arrangements with other network operators including BT, Cable & Wireless and Viatel are unaffected by the new Telstra agreement.
Kevin Holland, Sales Director of Service Providers for Telstra Europe said, “Following strong performance in 2007, we are continuing to drive the recruitment of solutions-led service providers to accelerate demand for our advanced network and managed solutions portfolio. We are committed to being the clear leader for the wholesale channel and our agreement with Frontier will bring enormous benefit to both our business and our partners.”
Clifford Norton, Managing Director of Frontier said, “This agreement consolidates Frontier’s position as the leading network service provider in the UK market. Our channel-only policy, fair dealing, and outstanding service levels means more and more channel resellers want to partner with Frontier. We believe this is excellent news for Telstra Europe, Frontier and the channel.”
