US communications firm Comcast has added 230,000 VoIP customers in the second quarter of 2010, while the company now has 1.1 million more users than last year.

The quarterly report highlights the continued steady growth of the VoIP sector as a similar number of customers (233,000) signed up with the business last year.

Comcast finished the period with 47.7 million voice, internet and television customers and 8.1 million total voice customers.

Brian Roberts, chairman and chief executive officer of Comcast, expressed his delight at the financial position of the firm.
