BSS Grant & Pricing
The Welsh Assembly has launched a £2m support scheme to bring broadband to Welsh broadband 'not spots'. The Broadband Support Scheme (BSS) is aimed at individuals, small and medium businesses, communities and 3rd sector organisations who can't currently access broadband.
If eligible, the scheme will fund costs of up to £1000 covering purchase, installation and setup of your satellite broadband solution. If you don't already have broadband in your area or you consistently get a broadband download speed of less than 512Kbps, you may well be eligible NOW. Applications will be assessed on a first come first served basis...so do not delay!!
Provided you meet the criteria and your application is approved, funding will be made available to you directly from the Welsh Assembly for the upfront cost (hardware and installation) up to a maximum £1000 per application. NB : monthly subscriptions will not be funded under the scheme.

What Customers say
"Having satellite internet broadband has made a huge difference to our lives. To be able to do the simple things that all our friends talk about, such as compare car insurance offers from the comfort of our own home has been a real boon. Email is obviously a huge advantage and is lightening quick compared with our previous dial up account. We actually receive email attachments now!
We live in a very rural part of North Wales some 13Km from the nearest BT exchange which rules out any landline broadband option. Even in the wildest weather when the telephone is down it is a great feeling to be able to jump on the internet in the knowledge that you are on a completely separate platform, which as a business user is a comforting thought.
The system has been reliable, very sympathetically and professionally installed and the technical support, understanding, on the few occasions that there have been questions".
Satellite broadband has been a good investment and one that I have recommended to others."
John Simpkin, Near Ruthin, North Wales
"We live in a remote Welsh farmhouse, our BT exchange which is approx. 6 miles away. Conventional broadband doesn't work. It became clear in the early 2000s, that our dial-up connection over copper lines was no longer sufficient, we made a few more enquiries via our dial-up connection before turning to Avonline. The actual installation on-site was in October 2006.
Now, almost 4 years later, we can say we are using the original equipment supplied and installed in 2006 - no repairs, replacements etc. necessary over time. In principle, our only contact with Avonline these days is via the monthly direct debit payment for the service and by receiving one email with the monthly invoice for our records.
Without satellite broadband in our neck of the woods, the alternatives were clear: sell up and move to somewhere where we can get traditional broadband. Hence we are exceedingly grateful to Avonline for supplying their service without fail, which keep us living where we used to and like to, which keeps us in business (and able to pay tax etc.) and which obviously has improved certain aspects of our social, private communication (kids, relatives, friends...).
Thanks and all the best for the future".

After having been quoted £150,000 to install broadband by BT, Beverley took an Avonline Tooway Broadband Satellite system - "For those who want a fast and reliable broadband connection, but are unable to have one through the usual route, I would recommend they investigate the possibility of a satellite connection".
