Vodafone to unveil its mobile rates today
By Pratap John
Chief Business Reporter
Vodafone customers may get some “flexible calling options” when they pay for their local and international mobile calls and messages in advance through credit card, it is learnt.
Qatar’s second mobile operator is expected to announce the mobile call rates today after having notified these to the country’s telecom regulator, ictQATAR.
National voice and SMS, international voice and SMS and MMS and mobile Internet rates are likely to be announced today. Customers may have the option of buying Vodafone services online, using credit card.
Sources said Vodafone had designed a “flexi plan”, which aims to give customers “bonus value” and free “Vodafone minutes”.
They said the Vodafone rate card was “mostly comparable” to its rival Qtel though in certain segments it could be “attractive”. Sources, however, declined to give more details.
William Fagan, ictQATAR executive director, told Gulf Times that Vodafone “had indeed notified” the mobile call rates to the country’s telecom regulator.
A customer said he expected Vodafone to take on Qtel in terms of quality of service and prices.
