Change of internet connection provider for AYY properties
AYY tendered the internet services for its properties, and as a result of the tender, the internet connection provider will change. The change will be implemented in accordance with the plan by the end of June 2026. Alteration work will be conducted in a way that minimises connection outages and any other inconvenience to residents and facility renters. We will provide residents and association facility tenants with more detailed information as the project progresses and the alteration work schedule is finalised for each property.
AYY’s housing stock is largely financed through state-guaranteed interest subsidy loans. This obliges AYY to tender, on a regular basis, all services funded through rental income, including in-house services. As part of this change, the service provider will change from an internal operator to an external provider for cost reasons.
