What makes Copper.net better than other ISPs?
It’s simple, we try harder! Copper.net has thousands of reliable access numbers,
feature rich email and allows access to all major Instant Messaging programs (IM)
like Yahoo, AOL® and MSN. However Copper.net has set itself apart from the crowd
of other ISPs in three very important areas:
- Copper.net is a privately held American company. We have chosen not to outsource
any of our services. This means if you call us for any reason, you will talk with
our friendly staff who are easy to understand and can quickly provide assistance
about your account or service. When you sign up with Copper.net, you are helping
to support an American business and the American workers that are employed by it!
- Copper.net takes identity theft and your privacy very seriously. While other providers
like AOL®, MSN, Netzero and Netscape believe they can securely track and sell their
customers information and online habits, Copper.net has chosen against this type
of activity. It just doesn’t make sense to us. Unlike other ISPs, we will not put
your private information at risk or monitor your online activity just to make an
extra buck!
- Copper.net believes you shouldn’t have to pay more for great customer service or
technical support. This means our free and friendly technical support is available
seven days a week online, by email or with a toll free phone call. At Copper.net
you’re not just a number. We appreciate YOU!
