Telecommunications company, Globacom has offered an unmatched voice and data roaming deal to Nigerians travelling to Saudi Arabia for Hajj or for holiday.
In a press statement issued in Lagos, Globacom said that the offer will enable them to make calls and enjoy data while in Saudi Arabia at the most affordable tariffs. It also disclosed that it was collaborating with its roaming partners to provide the most affordable tariffs for customers going to Saudi Arabia.
“By providing the best roaming solution where customers can make voice calls and browse using a single bundle, they are assured of getting the best value for money while on pilgrimage or on any other visit to Saudi Arabia”, Glo added.
The customers will be incurring less charges while using its roaming services at pay as you go rates in Saudi Arabia, the network added.
According to the company, the various packages have been categorized to cater for different needs of customers. For instance, a 2,500, package gives the subscriber 5 minutes of Voice plus 100MB of Data with a validity of one day. For N5,000, a customer gets 10 minutes of Voice calls in addition to 250MB Data.
“One GB data is available for N10,000 and is valid for 10 days, while for N25,000, the customer gets 2.5 GB of Data with a validity of 30 days. The biggest of them all is the N50,000 pack that gives the customer as much as 6GB of roaming data and has a validity period of 60 days”, Globacom added.
The company assured customers that with these bundles, customers can capture memorable moments in Saudi Arabia and share with family, friends and loved ones either back home in Nigeria or in any part of the world.
Similarly, customers can dial *312# and select option 8 for Roaming and thereafter follow the prompt to purchase a bundle of choice. In addition to these, customers can purchase a bundle in Nigeria and it will auto-activate once they arrive in Saudi Arabia.
Customers who do not want to be pinned to a bundle can opt to use the service on a “pay-as-you-go” basis. This will still give them the best in-market value at N30 per MB for data browsing, N350 per minute for calls back to Nigeria and N270 for local calls within Saudi Arabia and also send local SMS at N50.
