Globacom has revealed a ‘3-in-1 recharge option’ to make the process of loading airtime credit, international calling packs and data bundles more convenient and easier for its subscribers.
The telecoms company explained that the 3-in-1 recharge option would provide its customers the convenience of topping up their airtime credit for different services directly without first having to top up their prepaid accounts before allocating the airtime for data bundles or international calls.
Globacom’s Head of Operations, Mr. Bisi Koleoso said the company made the decision to simplify the airtime recharge process in order to provide customers with more convenient options, which aligns with its vowed commitment that ensures subscribers come first in everything.
“Under the new arrangement, customers who want to directly top up and add to their main balance should dial *123*PIN#, while those interested in directly buying a data bundle without cramming codes should dial *223*PIN#. Similarly, subscribers wishing to load International Direct Dialing (IDD) packs should dial *323*PIN#,” Mr. Koleoso stated.
He added that the introduction of the new 3-in-1 recharge option is particularly timely for subscribers who make international calls, seeing as Globacom reduced the cost of making calls to key destinations such as United States, Canada, India, China and UK to as low as 10 kobo per second just last week.
Koleoso also disclosed that customers who use the *223*PIN# option to load a data bundle will get an extra 385MB of data when they load a N1000 credit instead of the 350MB of free data they would have received if they had used the conventional recharge option to load the same N1000 recharge credit.
He noted that the launch of the 3-in-1-recharge option resonated with Globacom’s relentless desire to make recharge very convenient and accessible to all and sundry on the different call platforms of the company’s network.
“By virtue of our well-established pedigree as always the first network to initiate wonderful innovations in the telecommunication industry since we came into operation on 29th of August, 2003, Nigerian telecommunication subscribers have graciously nicknamed Glo the king of innovations. As a proudly Nigerian company, we are happy to blaze trails and set the pace for the industry.
With all modesty, Globacom entered the industry as the game changer with Per Second Billing and followed it in quick succession with other innovations. It was on the Glo network that Nigerians for the first time were able to browse the internet on their phones in 2004. It was also on the Glo network that Nigerians for the very first time were able to use the Blackberry service on their phones in 2006,” he added.
