Starcomms reduces net-call tarrif to N5 per minute

Starcomms Plc, a leading  telecommunication company is giving its customers a reduced on-net tarrif of N5.00 per minute on pre-paid, Virtual  Private Network (VPN) and post-paid for a period of one month following the successful outcome of its recently introduced Awuff and Awuff Plus.

The new tarrif of N5.00 per minute represents a drop of 44.4 per cent on the existing tarrif on net-calls of 15K per second.

Mr. Logan Pather, chief executive officer of the company said the new tarrif would be applicable on all tariffs and customer base that is VPN, post-paid, Telemax and Awuff.

In a bid to respond to the needs of its customers nationwide, Starcomms had early in the year offered them a value tariff plan that will allow them make free on net calls all day and 30 kobo per second to other networks within Nigeria from the very first second. No hidden charges or higher first minute call.

Aptly called Awuff Plus, the plan can be used by all Starcomms customers everywhere under the network’s coverage. To benefit from it the customer will need to dial 151*PIN*Number of Days#. The default pin of all Starcomms phone is 1234.

This will put them on the plan for the number of days they opt to subscribe for.  Customer will pay just N100 for one day subscription of unlimited call to all Starcomms number, which increases as the number of days increase. This means that customers who subscribe for several days at once will get a discount on subscription fee in accordance with the number of days. The option of number of days for the plan includes 1, 3, 5, 7, 15 & 30 days.

Discounts on the subscription plan are available for only 5, 7, 15 or 30 days and they range between N10 and N500.

This means those who subscribe for the days plan will pay N490 while a thirty-day subscription will cost N2500. Regardless of the time of the day that the customer activates Awuff plus the charge stops at 12 midnight of everyday and reverts to the user’s default plan except in the case of multiple days’ subscription. Awuff Plus allows more talk time and saves the customer money
