We are very happy to announce that karoo.co.uk has been short-listed in the 'Best Portal' category of the national industry awards the ISPAs (Internet Service Provider Association Awards).

To be short listed as a finalist a lengthy application form was completed before the judges reviewed the website.

Kingston Communications Director of Marketing, Anita Pace commented; "This is an excellent result, to be short listed against other websites belonging to huge ISPs and employing dozens of journalists. This shows our customers that we can deliver the same standard of service as a large multi-national company."

In previous years Karoo.co.uk has been short listed in the awards for; Best Light Consumer Broadband and Best Light Business Broadband categories of the ISPAs.

2008 Award winners will be announced at an event on 14 March 2008, at the Marriott Hotel in London.

How does having a nice website mean they can provide the same level of internet services as other huge companies?

'Industry Awards' are often a wee bit dodgy.

"And this years award for the longest router uptime goes to ........." Everyone wins something!  Grin

I noticed Karoo didn't make the grade for any other of the nominations, which is too bloody right!

Eclipse has a nomination for Business broadband and email, surprised KCOM has not sucked all the life out of Eclipse yet.

Why isnt Karoo on the Internet villain award? For its lack of empathy with customers in the Hull and East Riding and with its bullshit PR and little substance, Anita Pace should have a nomination for spouting 100% bull. Smiley
