The GSTel difference

A local company built after years of unreliable service.

You have many choices for telephone service. GSTel exists because New Orleans deserves infrastructure and support from people committed to this place.

Why Gulf South started

We decided to open Gulf South after a long-running battle with a large telephone company over the reliability of their service. For years, intermittent service was treated as normal.

Looking into it, we found political and business reasons why Louisiana, and especially the New Orleans area, could be easy for a large company to overlook. None of those reasons made sense to us as long-time New Orleans residents.

So we set about building a telephone company of which New Orleans could be proud.

How we work

Small-company attention, serious infrastructure goals.

Local accountability

Customers reach a team that knows the area and takes service problems personally.

Practical reliability

We care about systems that continue to work when customers need them most.

Long-term commitment

GSTel is privately held and built around serving the Gulf South, not selling out.
