A Dorset internet provider is giving customers extra free data ability during the third lockdown.

Wessex Internet, which is based in Blandford, says it will double the data availability for its existing customers on limited data tariffs during January and February free of charge.

Hector Gibson Fleming, managing director said, “This is a tough time of year for everybody, and due to the increasing number of people working from home, children who are home schooling, people who are shielding and businesses that are operating under difficult conditions it is anticipated that more data will be used during this period. We want to take the pressure off and – and give something back to our valued customers.”

The company provided the same offer during last year’s national lockdown.
