BTC’s Command Center remains open at its National Network
Operations Center as it continues to monitor the effects of monitoring
Hurricane Joaquin.
Though commercial connectivity has been lost in some pockets in the
South East islands due to power outages, BTC remains in contact with its Family
Island management teams via satellite phones.

friends:

• Mayaguana
• San Salvador

• Long Cay
BTC advises that the process of applying credits will begin today
and will continue throughout the weekend, until all customers in the above mentioned
islands have been credited.
The Company remains
committed to keeping the entire country connected. We ask the public to report
any additional concerns or issues directly to BTC, by calling us toll free at
