BERLIN, Conn., March 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Comcast, the nation's leading provider of entertainment, information and communications, today launched a new program designed to provide Chambers of Commerce and their members throughout Connecticut the opportunity to save money and bring the latest technology inside their businesses.

Beginning today, the newly created Comcast Chamber Rewards Program provides small and medium-sized businesses that belong to a local Chamber of Commerce a free month of service* when they sign up for Comcast Business Class video, voice or high-speed Internet service. Additionally, the referring Chamber of Commerce will receive a free month of service for each member that signs up for Comcast Business Class through the new program.**

"In this economy, Comcast Business Class products are a smart investment that yield a great return," said Jeff Freyer, Vice President of Business Services for the Western New England Region, which includes Connecticut. "We're pleased to be offering this new program that is really a win-win for local Chambers and their members."
