Glo Mobile has rolled out four exciting new products to give more value for money to its subscribers in Ghana. The products include Twin Bash, Three Minutes To Free, Weekend Browsing and Night Browsing.

The four products were formally rolled out at a media event at Alisa Hotel, Accra, Ghana on Monday by top officials of the company, supported by the company’s brand ambassadors.

According to Mr. Augustine Mamuro, the Head of Business at Glo Mobile, Ghana, the four mega products were rolled out to give subscribers unmatchable value for money on the Glo Mobile network.

The first one, Twin Bash, is a power-packed product which gives subscribers 6 times the value of their data recharges. A subscriber who recharges with GHc1 for instance will get benefits worth GHc 6. Additionally, the subscriber will get free data worth GHc1 for gifting to friends and associates.

The benefits include a 200 percent data bundle, a 100 percent bonus airtime that can be used to make calls to any number in Ghana, another 300 percent bonus to call 10 Glo Family & Friends numbers and a 100 percent additional benefit available for gifting to any Glo number the subscriber chooses. The offer is available on any denomination from GHc1 and above.

To load data instantly, a subscriber dials *127* RECHARGE PIN# to enjoy the benefits.

The second product, Three Minutes To Free allows subscribers to make voice calls free to all Glo lines for the rest of the day after the first three minutes of calls.

According to Mr Mamuro,, “with three minutes to free, all a subscriber needs to do to enjoy unlimited calls throughout the day is to make calls for the first three minutes in a day. The calls which subscribers will pay for can be for calls to any network in Ghana. This product gives amazing freedom to subscribers and empowers them to spend as much time as they wish to call their friends, family and business associates in the country. It will save our subscribers enormous amount of money daily while also ensuring that they can stay in touch with their friends, associates and loved ones for as long as they want. Once a subscriber makes a call for the first three minutes, he/she has unlimited freedom to talk to anyone on the Glo network throughout the day without paying again.” To activate, a subscriber dials *1957#, while the product is a default setting on new SIM cards.

For the Weekend Browsing pack, subscribers are required to pay GHc 8 to enjoy 3GB of data between Friday 11pm and 6:00am on Monday. The user will also enjoy the offer from 11PM till 6:00AM on weekdays. The pack is valid for seven days. To activate, a subscriber is expected to dial *127*21# or send 141 as sms to 127.

The fourth product is another data offer named the Night Browsing pack which enables subscribers to enjoy 500MB browsing each night from 11pm to 6am with only GHc 1. To activate this product, a customer is expected to dial *127*20# or send 114 as sms to 127.

According to Mr. Mamuro, these two products, Weekend Browsing and Night Browsing, were developed to cater for the large number of people who desire heavy data usage during the weekend and throughout the night.

Mr. Mamuro said Glo Mobile is investing enormous resources on network upgrade to guarantee significant improvement in the quality of voice and data service. He called on the people to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the new products to make calls and enjoy data services on the network at very reasonable cost.
