MTN Ghana Launches Social Bundle Offer [press release](AllAfrica Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Ghana's leading Telecoms Company, Mobile Telecommunications Network (MTN), has announced it is offering a new data access bundle, targeted at users of social media platforms Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp. Dubbed "Social Bundle," the new service costs GH?5 per month and offers customers a data bundle of up to 400 MB to access the three most popular social media platforms. Explaining the rationale for introduction of Social Bundle, MTN Chief Marketing Officer Rahul De, said MTN was seeking to brighten the lives of its customers by limiting the cost of data access required for the use of social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp. Mr De said MTN customers purchasing Social Bundle would be able to access the social media platforms at lower than normal data charges. "Social media is now a powerful tool in Ghana and MTN is eager to give customers value for their money by providing affordable data access that allows them to freely connect with family and friends. The new GH?5 Social Bundle seeks to do this by offering customers value-priced data access for 30 days," he added. Mr De said MTN customers could purchase Social Bundle by dialling *138*1# on their mobile phones and following the "Social Bundle" prompts. "We are relieved to know there is a lower priced data access option for using social media. This unlimited bundle actually feels better and makes life easier. This is a great relief," according to an MTN customer whose view was sampled. Source: ISD (G.D. Zaney) Copyright Government of Ghana. Distributed by AllAfrica Global Media (allAfrica.com). |
