Customer confidence propels Videotron to new heights

October 17, 2012 - Press Release

Montréal, October 17, 2012 – Videotron, the Québec telecommunications leader, now has one million multiproduct customers. The milestone confirms the high regard in which Videotron is held by Quebecers. Today, more than a million households subscribe to a bundle combining either three or four of Videotron's services (cable television, Internet access, residential telephone service, mobile telephone service). Those customers enjoy the benefits of the savings, superior entertainment experience and technological convergence offered by Videotron's service bundles.

By Quebecers for Quebecers
“We have achieved this key milestone thanks to our 6,000 dedicated employees,” said Robert Dépatie, President and CEO of Videotron. “Day after day, they work hard to make life easier for our customers. Videotron's employees are Quebecers working for Quebecers, doing their utmost to deliver the best customer experience.”

Unrivalled satisfaction rates among multiproduct customers
The love story between Videotron and Quebecers continues. Videotron ranks with the best, boasting a satisfaction rate of more than 98%1 among customers with three or four products. That record has yet to be equalled. In 2012, a Léger Marketing survey rated Videotron the most respected telecommunications company in Québec for the seventh year in a row.

Videotron customers can count on a state-of-the-art, robust, reliable network that is one of the most powerful in North America. By leveraging Québec expertise and advanced technology, Videotron is able to offer customers a stand-out experience and an unparalleled selection of content on illico TV, illico web and illico mobile. It differentiates itself from the competition by combining the power of fibre optics, coax cable and wireless technology, and by constantly renewing its diverse service and content offerings.
