Simwood Poised for Major USA Expansion as a Carrier

BRISTOL, England, Dec. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Simwood, the innovative UK wholesale VoIP provider headquartered in Bristol, is pleased to announce that expansion gathers pace across the United States.

The first step was the attainment of Legal status in 2017 as a Carrier with accreditations for both Competitive Local Exchange Carrier "CLEC" and Interconnected VoIP carrier (known as Internet Protocol Enabled Services) "IPES". US porting and numbering are already available!

Now, Simwood are about to gain a licence as an Interexchange carrier "IXC", a U.S. legal and regulatory term for a telecommunication company, commonly called a long-distance telephone company.

Simwood CEO, Simon Woodhead, commented: "this will be a game changer for us. There are many 10,000's of companies within the United States offering VoIP and other telecommunications services, but a relatively few with full Carrier status. It empowers us now to compete with anyone over there. I can't wait!"

The significance for Simwood is not just the huge market opportunity available, but, in particular, the potential impact of the Company's market leading fraud abatement tools for enterprise customers. 

Tom Hadden, Simwood Inc.'s new COO explains: "our fraud abatement tools for Enterprise customers provide the ability to avoid fraudulent calls in real time.  That can save Enterprise customers many thousands of dollars in monthly invoicing and recovery efforts.  The key differentiating factor here is that Simwood is one of the very first companies to bring this level of Fraud Management to the US Enterprise market. That offers us a real competitive edge."
