In its desire to delight its numerous customers,
the grandmasters of data, Globacom, on Tuesday introduced a new product, Borrow
Me Data, and redesigned three other existing products.
Announcing the new product in its corporate
headquarters in Lagos, Globacom’s Head, Usage and Retention, Mr.
Sola Mr. Arowogbadamu, listed the three reloaded products to be Double Free Tomorrow,
11k/s for All and IDD Packs.
According
to Arowogbadamu, Glo Borrow Me Data allows subscribers, who
have been on the network for a period of time, and have used a certain average
monthly data, to borrow Data credit of up to 2GB whenever their data
bundles are exhausted and they have no airtime balance to recharge their data
plan or in cases of unsuccessful subscription bundle activation due to low
balance.
Customers,
he added, can subscribe to Borrow Me Data by dialling
*321# and following the menu options. The service will then push real time Data
credit to all eligible subscribers in line with the stated eligibility
criterion. The customer will repay the Data credit whenever he recharges.
On Double Free Tomorrow, he said
it gives back to the subscriber 200% of whatever is spent on calls, SMS or
data today to use for free the next day. The network will calculate
all the value of airtime a subscriber used in a day for internet services,
phone calls and SMS, and credits the subscriber’s phone with double this value
at the start of the next day, that is midnight.
Mr.
Arowogbadamu explained that the bonus could be used for
practically anything including browsing or calls and SMS to Glo and non-Glo
lines. The bonus can also be used for International calls to popular countries
such as US, UK (fixed), Canada, China and India.
The offer is open to all existing and new prepaid
customers on the Glo network and other subscribers who crave good value for
money.
“If a subscriber on the Glo network uses N500 credit
in a day on calls, SMS and data, Glo will give back N1,000 credit to the subscriber the very next day to call all
networks, SMS and browse free,” he stated. To enjoy the
service, subscribers are to dial *600#.
He also said that the third offer, 11k/s for
All, is a simple flat tariff plan which allows
customers enjoy heavily reduced call rate on local and international calls and remains the best prepaid plan in the
Nigerian telecoms market.
