Worldline Waives Long Distance Fees to Typhoon Haiyan Families

Canadian’s Call Free to the Philippines for the Month of November

CAMBRIDGE, ONTARIO–(12/06/13)-  Worldline, a division of Fibernetics Corp,  waived all long distance charges from their customers who called the Philippines in November, looking to get in touch with the survivors of Typhoon Haiyan which devastated that country.

“Our hearts go out to the Filipino community and all those whose family and friends have been impacted by Typhoon Haiyan,” said Worldline Co-Founder and CMO John Stix said. “With so many people out of contact, we felt it was the least we could do to support those who have lost so much and we hope all of our customers managed to contact their families and friends in the Philippines.”

Typhoon Haiyan, known as Typhoon Yolanda in the Philippines, was an exceptionally powerful tropical cyclone that devastated portions of Southeast Asia, particularly the Philippines, in early November killing more than 5,000 and injuring tens of thousands more.

A Truly Canadian Thing: Getting the Heck Out of Here

Being Canadian means a lot of things. A Yahoo! survey held this past Canada day came up with a lot of answers, and typically, none were truly definitive:

“Being Canadian means driving your German car to an Irish pub for

a pint of Belgian beer, then grabbing a Chinese or Indian takeout on your way home, where you spend the evening watching American programs on a Japanese TV while relaxing on Swedish furniture.”

 —Canadian Dave

“I love the freedom, the diversity, the peace, the flag, the lakes, the mountains, the critters, the fall colours, the people, the slang, the sense of humour, the bilingualism, the maple syrup, the Timmy’s, the hockey… I wasn’t born here but I got here as soon as I could. This is home now. Happy Birthday Canada!”

—Huda

“I like being Canadian. As long as I am not interfering with anyone else I can go where I want and do what I want. I like being Canadian because if I forget to lock my house everything is still there when I get back. I like being Canadian because in times of flood or other disaster people I don’t know are there to help. Being Canadian means I can travel the world with a Maple Leaf sewn on my backpack with no fear of harassment. I never see the Canadian flag being burnt or protested in another country. I like to know if I get sick it will not cause me to go bankrupt. I like knowing my young ones have opportunities for the future.I like being Canadian. I can’t imagine being anything else.”

—JAMES

Yet, there is one universal truth when it comes to being a Canadian,and that is, when it gets cold, we get gone.

Over the past few years, we as a people have doubled our international travel time and the vast majority of our time spent overseas or south of the border is in places with beeches, umbrellas and blue tropical oceans. We love our country, but let’s face it, there are times when driving horizontal snow, slush and freezing temperatures drives us all to travel sites looking for a seriously good deal.

We here at Worldline certainly understand that, and that’s why we’ve recently partnered with Sunwing Vacations providing free trips to our fellow Canadians over these cold winter months. Just in time for the Holiday’s we’ve launched our first contest which allows you to pick your own trip to go anywhere Sunwing flies. Which means pretty much everywhere.

That said, Sunwing’s name says it all – it caters to what Canadians want most and that’s to get away from Canadian winters for a while and to put some colour back into our pasty white hides.

So please take a few minutes to enter our latest contest – and then, get the heck out of here!
