Who We Are

Mercury Telecom is a full-service communications company headquartered and founded in Midland, MI in 1996. Today, the company provides a complete line of communications products and services, including high-speed Internet access, hosting, digital phone services, and computer repair. Mercury Telecom’s growth can be attributed to the vision of its President, Dave Sovereen, and his commitment to providing quality products and services with exceptional customer care.

Our roots date back to 1992, when Dave had a vision of starting an electronic Bulletin Board Service (BBS) and launched Mercedes On-Line Systems to the residents of sunny South Florida. After moving to Midland, MI and establishing Mercury Telecom, Dave was called upon to help launch LakeShore OnLine, an Internet Service Provider in Manitowoc, WI. In the summer of 2004, Mercury Telecom had the opportunity to acquire the customers of LakeShore OnLine, which it did, and has maintained its presence in the two states ever since. In the spring of 2014, MercuryTel was launched within Mercury Telecom, and provides superior digital phone services and systems to homes and businesses alike.

Quality products, outstanding services, and exceptional customer care are the elements that have propelled Mercury Telecom into the full-service communications company that it is today. Our mission is simple and complete and our commitment to our customers is always strong.
