Encomium
The huge benefits accruing to customers of Globacom who use Glo Berekete has continued to elicit kudos to the company as subscribers these testimonials during a recent customer engagement session.
The unique tariff which was launched last year gives new customers on the network a welcome bonus of N600 upon successful activation of their numbers. The successful activation involves registering the SIM, recharging with a minimum of N100 and making a first call. N400 out of the bonus credit is for calls to any network, while the balance of N200 will be converted to 200MB of data.
Other benefits of the package include a massive 700 percent bonus on every recharge to call all networks and to browse the Internet. Subscribers could receive up to N20, 000 voice bonus and 5GB data bonus from a single recharge depending on the recharge denomination.
Abubakar Kalo, a beans farmer from Bauchi, said he has been more able to reach his customers across the nation as a result of the free credit which enable him to call at minimal costs. Like Abubakar, Chidinma Okoye, who trades in fairly-used goods from Enugu, noted that she has gained more customers by posting her wares on social media using the Berekete free data, which she gets from recharging her Glo line.
From Idumota, Lagos Island, Asabi Morenikeji, a trader said, “Since I bought my latest sim which came with Glo Berekete, I have been enjoying huge airtime and data bonuses. Having known this, I have made it a habit to recharge regularly. I use the bonus for calls to my children who study in other parts of Nigeria”.
Akpan Japhet, a student of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, who disclosed that aside from calling his parents back home, he also uses the free data to download video content which he watches in his spare time. “The data also helps me in my research and studies online as I don’t have to worry much about data cost. On top of these, I still enjoy 100% bonus on any data plan I subscribe to. With GLO Berekete, all my voice and data needs are satisfied in one tariff plan”.
New Glo customers get on the Berekete tariff plan by default, while existing prepaid customers can subscribe by dialing *777# after which they too can enjoy 700 percent bonus on all recharges; though they will not be entitled to the one-off welcome bonus as well as the bonus on data plan purchases. Similarly, new customers also enjoy up to 100% extra data volumes on all data plan purchases between N50 and N10, 000. The offer is applicable for the first four months of joining the network.
