I believe I got similar few months ago.

Do your own research regarding that company and yes PM does have relationship with some Internet providers.

Interesting, thought though PM was Only doing Mobile

Would be interesting if PM could actually possibly Partner with a reliable and dependable Provider who does HOME Internet, Home Phone, TV and Security, being able to pay through the PM App and all that

PM should try to offer a Community based way of offering this kind of Service, Having to Only send Techs for Install and all that, But all help and stuff done via Community

Telus owns Altima now, they buy wholesale internet access from the local companies and sell that. They made offers to Koodo and some Telus customers earlier this year iirc. You can get better prices from other companies that do the same thing.
