Etisalat users seem to be excited about a new twin deal it has launched for its prepaid and post-paid customers.

Post-paid customers are being offered a deal that entitles them to use the benefit of Dh300 for a one time recharge of Dh100.

Those who opt to recharge will be able to make international calls for 100 minutes, apart from 100 local minutes and 500 MB of data.

The offer was launched on September 18 and is valid until October 18. The offer is however valid only to post-paid customers and has a limited shelf life of one month.

Pre-paid customers are offered 200 per cent bonus on their recharge value, with up to 10 days’ of validity for bonus amount.

For example, a recharge of Dh25-49 will entitle the customer to get 200 per cent bonus on the recharged amount. The there is no expiry date for the actual recharged amount, but the bonus amount is valid for three days only. A recharge for Dh500 on the other hand is valid for 10 days from the date of activation.
According to Etisalat, there has been so much rush by subscribers interested in the deal that Etisalat’s call centers have been flooded with inquiries after the announcement of the offer.

It took almost 20 minutes for a call to its toll free number 80077666 to get connected. “The telephone lines have been constantly ringing ever since the deal was announced,” said a customer care executive.

“The deal has become quite popular. But it is valid for one month only. The deal can be subscribed to on or before October 18 and is valid only for post-paid customers,” an Etisalat call centre employee said. Post-paid customers have also been receiving SMS alerts.
