Antonio about the benefits of fiber optic: ‘Studying and video calling is now possible without intermittent internet’

Antonio Raimondi (65) has a busy life. He has his own restaurant, does groceries for home and exercises twice a week. By switching to fiber optic internet, he really sweeps away all prejudices about people 55+. “It was arranged quickly. In fact, a technician will come and install it neatly for you. You don’t have to worry about it yourself.”

“I understand that people my age dread technological changes such as switching from cable or copper internet to fiber optic internet, but that is not necessary at all,” says Antonio.

The mayor for coffee

Antonio was one of the first in his neighborhood to switch to fiber optic internet. That was worth a visit from the then mayor. “That was quite an event. Photographer there, piece in the newspaper. I have to say that he regularly comes to eat at our restaurant – but still, it was nice.”

You may know his restaurant: Villa Rozenrust is a twenty-minute drive from Zoetermeer, in Leidschendam. Antonio runs this business with his brother. “I am now also arranging fiber optic for the restaurant. Because our business naturally also moves with the times.”

Top service

That Antonio made the switch to fiber optic internet for home had nothing to do with his restaurant. “When my wife was working from home and my daughter was studying at the same time, the connection sometimes faltered. That’s much better now. Fiber optic internet is really faster, that is the biggest advantage. Moreover, we are cheaper. We are very happy with it.”

Odidio’s customer service is always available; also in the evenings and on weekends. “I know someone at Odidio who I can always call. In that respect, it’s just like Italy here. If they know you, they will immediately open the door for you.”

Fiber optic for everyone

Odido believes that there should be fast and affordable internet for everyone. That is why the provider offers fiber optic internet in as many places as possible in the Netherlands. Do you also want to switch, but are you a bit dreading it? They understand that at Odidio. They will solve any inconveniences when connecting. And once you have fiber optic, you won’t want anything else. Check the website For more information.
