Under the terms of the agreement, AT&T Canada will offer substantial
savings on local, long distance and Internet communications services as well
as preferential rates on calling cards.
We are delighted to welcome AT&T Canada as the newest partner in our
growing small business savings program, says Trevor Van Nest, Director of
Small Business Services for Amex Bank of Canada. Telecommunications is
increasingly important for small businesses and our Cardmembers have told us
they want savings in this area. Through this relationship, we’re offering big
business buying power and access to savings they usually can’t get on their
own.
We are very pleased to have joined the American Express team of savings
partners and expand our ability to deliver the benefits of our services to
more small business owners across Canada, said Stuart Cordrey, Vice-
President, Small Business, AT&T Canada. This is one more way that we are
reaching out to serve the needs of the very important small business market.
AT&T Canada joins a list of blue-chip partners such as Delta Hotels,
FedEx, Hertz, IBM and McGraw-Hill Ryerson who supply services and savings to
Amex’s small business Cardmembers. Since launching the savings program in the
spring of 2000, thousands of small businesses have signed on to take advantage
of this new benefit.
