Published




In line with its forte of giving back to its esteemed subscribers, the grandmasters of data, Globacom, has reduced international call tariffs by 55 per cent to give more power to its customers to stay in touch with their loved ones abroad at a pocket-friendly rate.

Globacom in a press statement on Tuesday said the reduced tariffs, which come without any subscription fee, cover calls made to major destinations such as the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Ireland, South  Africa, Spain and Saudi Arabia.

Other countries affected by the reduction are  Cameroon, Niger, Benin Republic, Togo and Cote d’Ivoire. The specific tariffs for each country vary, but are the most competitive in the market, the company declared.

For instance, calls to the United Kingdom which used to cost between N30 and N130 per minute now cost between N24 and N100 per minute depending on the network the call is being terminated on.  Similarly, calls to Spain and Italy have been reduced to N75 and N60 per minute from N90 and N130 respectively.

The company said calls to South Africa will now attract N85 per minute instead of N150, while calls to Saudi Arabia will now be charged at N55 per minute, down from the former N60 per minute. For France and Ireland, the tariff has been slashed to N50 and N40 respectively from N65 and N60, Cote d’Ivoire, Benin Republic, Cameroon, Togo and Niger N150 instead of the old N200  per minute rate.

The company enjoined subscribers to take advantage of the tariff slash to connect and talk at a cost-effective rate with their friends and relations in the countries covered by the offer especially in view of the prevailing international lockdown caused by the global Coronavirus pandemic.

It added that its rates to other major destinations such as the United States, India and China are still the most competitive in the market.

“Subscribers can enjoy premium-quality calls to these countries for just 50 kobo per second,” the company concluded.
