Sometimes, the best decisions begin with the most frustrating moments.
For Yolanda Cornish, that moment came after returning home from a trip to the United States. Instead of settling back into the comfort of home, she was met with a frustrating reality: her internet service had been disconnected.
What she thought would be a quick fix turned into six long months of unanswered questions, endless back-and-forth and no connection.
“I was tired of the runaround,” she recalled.
It was enough to make her look elsewhere. That decision led her to ALIVFibr.
What Yolanda didn’t know at the time was that she would become one of the very first ALIVFibr customers in Abaco. Looking back today, she smiles knowing that one simple decision changed the way her family and her tenants stayed connected.
“It’s the best decision I’ve ever made,” she said.
For her son TJ, that decision meant something even more.
As an avid gamer, TJ depends on fast, reliable internet for hours every day, to the point that he took on the responsibility of paying the household’s fibre bill. From intense online matches to connecting with friends around the world, ALIVFibr has given him the speed and consistency he needs without interruption.
As an avid gamer, TJ depends on fast, reliable internet every day. From intense online matches to connecting with friends around the world, ALIVFibr has given him the speed and consistency he needs without interruption. He enjoyed the service so much that he took on the responsibility of paying the household’s fibre bill himself.
That’s why, when ALIV surprised the Cornish family with one full year of free ALIVFibr service, along with a new Samsung Galaxy S26 and $100 RUBis gas & Amazon giftcards, TJ was especially overjoyed.
For him, the greatest gift was freedom. With one year of internet service taken care of, the money he would have spent each month can now go toward something he’s been working on for years: saving to purchase his own property.
As ALIV celebrates 10 years of connecting The Bahamas, stories like the Cornish family’s remind us why we do what we do. Every installation, every customer and every connection represent a family, a dream, a business, or a goal waiting to be realized.
To everyone who has chosen ALIV over the past decade, thank you for being part of our journey. Your trust has helped shape our story and we’re excited to continue building the future together.
