Glo Introduces Four New Unique Tariff Plans

Globacom has rolled out four new tariff packages aimed at optimizing call costs for its subscribers based on usage patterns discerned over time.
Called More Classic, More Prime, More Business and More Power, the unique packages give the subscriber unprecedented savings of between 10% and 60% on monthly spend depending on the chosen tariff package.
In addition to the huge savings on calls, the four packages also give subscribers 10% to 20% free Glo-Glo bonus talk time on every recharge of N500 and above, 20 free Glo-to-Glo SMS every month and 35 hours free Glo-to-Glo talk time per week from 12 midnight to 5 a.m.
Over and above this, the SMS rates have been brought down to N8 across all tariff packages and two of them entitle the user to call 5 Friends and Family members at just 25 kobo per second.
The reduced tariffs and the additional benefits make the packages the most attractive in the market and is yet another manifestation of Glo’s philosophy of offering its customers more for less in comparison to any other telecom operator in the country. And this philosophy is the underpinning of the new multimedia campaign unleashed nationwide by Glo, expressed in the byline Expect More.
Giving the breakdown of the offers yesterday at a press conference, Globacom’s General Manager, Prepaid Marketing, Ashutosh Tiwary, said that MORE CLASSIC was designed for those who make short and frequent calls. The product offers 49 kobo per second for calls to any network, thereby giving the user savings of between 10% and 20% on monthly spend. The subscriber is also entitled to call any 5 Glo Friends and family numbers at 25k per second.
For MORE PRIME, the subscriber is able to make 30% to 40% savings on monthly spend by calling any network at only N18 per minute. And what is more, he is also charged the same reduced rate of N18 per minute for international calls. Tiwary stated that, “More Prime is ideal for medium to long duration calls.”
The MORE BUSINESS package is the first of its kind in Nigeria. He explained that subscribers to the package get more when you pay per call. “It offers an unmatched 55% to 60% savings on monthly spend by charging just N40 per call every 3 minutes to all networks and for international calls as well. More Business is ideal for high duration calls or usage.
“No other product in the market has this fantastic offer of charging a flat rate of N40 per 3 minute call, even for international routes, which means that effective price per minute is N13.3”.
On the other hand, the fourth package, MORE POWER, gives the subscriber 20% to 25% savings on monthly spend and empowers him to pay less the more he talks. He pays 55 kobo a second for the first minute and 25 kobo per second from the second minute onward for calls to any network. “The subscriber is also entitled to call any 5 Glo Friends and family numbers at 25k per second,” Tiwary stated.
For any of the packages the subscriber chooses, he gets more value for money. The 10% to 60% reduction in call and SMS rates along with the 10% to 20% bonus talk time, free SMS, 35 hours free talk time and 5 Friends and Family call at just 25 kobo per second combine to make the Glo MORE offers the most attractive tariff package in the Nigerian market. Moreover, there are no hidden costs, rentals or complications. All the packages are easy and convenient to use, the Glo official stated.
