Shaw Communications recently announced the launch of 'Fibre+ Gig 1.5' — a new internet plan designed to provide gamers, streamers and other heavy data users the speed and bandwidth they need for the many connected devices and data-heavy applications they use every day at home.
Shaw’s new internet speed tier is a premium product with unlimited data, available to customers for $165 per month on a 2-year ValuePlan.
The new Fibre+ Gig 1.5 internet service from Shaw is available in the vast majority of neighbourhoods in Vancouver, Victoria, Calgary, Edmonton, and Winnipeg, and it is also available in smaller cities Shaw serves, such as Dawson Creek, B.C., Banff, Alta, and Burnaby, B.C.
To add even more value to its high-speed internet offerings, Shaw gives internet customers discounts on Shaw Mobile services — including the exclusive rate of $25 per month on Unlimited Data wireless plans for Shaw Fibre+ Gig 1.5 and Fibre+ Gig internet subscribers.
For added convenience, all of Shaw’s internet plans of gig-speed or faster are immediately available to subscribers with Shaw’s latest Gateway modem, without the need to wait for additional equipment or hardware upgrades.
Paul Deverell, President, Consumer, Shaw Communications
We know that there’s a growing segment of people — including heavy gamers, content creators and super streamers — who need access to ultrafast internet services, and that need has only increased during the pandemic as many of our customers manage the reality of having multiple people working from home and sharing bandwidth.
Zoran Stakic, COO and CTO, Shaw Communications
The hard work and investments we’ve made in building, upgrading and expanding our Fibre+ and Fast LTE networks and services allow us to deliver these ultrafast speeds to Western Canadians over our existing infrastructure.
