With ‘Ringa’, Glo calls now 11k per sec

National telecommunications carrier, Globacom, has launched a special tariff plan that makes it more affordable for millions of its prepaid subscribers to call one another.

Dubbed Glo Ringa, the plans allows subscribers on the Globacom network to call other subscribers on the network at just 11 kobo per second, effectively extending ‘Family and Friends’ to all subscribers on the Globacom network.

“Every subscriber wants to make calls to all their friends, families and associates without limiting the number of friends and families they can call at a specially discounted rate”, said Mr. Yomi Ogunbamowo, head, business support group of Globacom, who unveiled the plan.

“Before now, ‘Friends and Family’ packages across various networks are limited to a few people.”

He said Glo Ringa would enable Glo prepaid customers to significantly reduce their expenditure on phone calls.

According to Ogunbamowo, the product is an effective way of rewarding the loyalty of Globacom’s teeming subscribers, as it practically puts money back in their pockets for every call they make to other Glo subscribers.

“With the increasing expenses incurred by individuals in their daily lives, it has become imperative to assist them to cope with life in our own way,” he added.

“This is why we have decided to give our esteemed subscribers excellent rates by significantly reducing the cost of calls they make to millions of other subscribers within the Glo network.

“For a fee of N250 weekly, subscribers get to pay a super low rate of 11k per second on all Glo-to-Glo calls from the very first second, and there is no limit on how many calls they can make.”

He urged subscribers who are not yet on the Globacom network to “join the people-friendly network” to enjoy the unprecedented benefits and innovative value-added services that guarantee premium satisfaction.

“With Glo Ringa, calling is made pretty easy and everyone on the network is now friends and family,” he said, urging interested subscribers to “dial *170*40# to enjoy the massive benefits of the package.”

Ogunbamowo advised Glo prepaid subscribers to encourage their clients, friends and family members to interact on the Globacom network to enjoy the benefits of calling for a longer period at reduced costs, and reassured Nigerians of “the unimpeachable resolve of Globacom, a proudly Nigerian company, to offer qualitative services to the people in the most cost-effective manner.”
