Etex Telephone Cooperative
Hayden Means's Company Details
Etex Communications, L.P. was formed in 1989. The company is a subsidiary of Etex Telephone Cooperative which was formed in 1952 to meet the communications needs of people living in rural northeast Texas. REA funding permitted a group of industrious individuals to launch the legacy of Etex Telephone Cooperative and provide service to rural areas of Texas where other companies chose not to serve.Growing from the original 743 member who each paid a $10 membership fee and made an initial investment of $40 at the time of installation of service into a Company that provides service to 17,451 members and customers in a little over 50 years is a remarkable accomplishment. Continuing to grow and provide state-of-the-art- communications services for the next 50 years will be no less challenging.The Company's rich heritage and continued desire to bring the very best communications service and technology to subscribers is evidenced by the evolutions of the network from open wire strung along fence posts and outhouses to the digital fiber optic network in place today.Etex Telephone Cooperative boasts a service territory of 710 square miles of rural East Texas. Customers within this service area are given the opportunity to purchase local, long distance, cellular and internet (dial-up and DSL) service at rates comparable to those found in urban areas around the state. Deployment of fiber in the loop further enhances our ability to offer other broadband services.Our Board of Directors and the 86 employees take pride in the quality of service that is provided to our members and customer and look forward to continuing to meet future needs.Our mission is to provide competitively priced, state-of-the-art communications, entertainment, and information services to its members and customers that include an array of contemporary, enhanced network features that are generally available in urban areas.
