TELECEL has introduced a Christmas Combo Special promotion for new customers, embracing 90 minutes free talk time, a 100% bonus every time airtime is loaded and “super voice bundles”, which reduce the cost of on-net calls to less than one cent per minute.

The Telecel Christmas Combo Special began on Sunday. It will continue until January 31. Those who purchase a new Telecel SIM card during that period, which costs 50 cents, can enjoy 90 minutes of pre-loaded free talk time.
Whenever they reload airtime, they can take advantage of the current mega bonus reloaded promotion 100% bonus, which has been modified to include text messaging and multi-media messaging as well as voice calls.
They can also opt to take advantage of the super voice bundles, which allow calls to be made to other Telecel numbers at less than one cent per minute.
Although only those who purchase a new SIM card can access all three of the Combo Special benefits, the modified mega bonus reloaded promotion and super voice bundles are available to existing as well as new customers.
The mega bonus reloaded promotion gives prepaid subscribers double the value of the airtime that they load. Fifty percent of the bonus airtime can be used for voice calls to any local number, regardless of network.
Thirty-five percent can be used for text messages, while the remaining 15% can be used for data. Previously bonus airtime was just for voice calls.

The super voice bundles have to be subscribed to. There are two options that customers can choose. There is the 90 minutes voice bundle which costs 70 cents and the 200 minutes voice bundle which costs $1.
To subscribe for the 90 minutes voice bundle, customers dial *1460#. To subscribe to the 200 minutes bundle, they dial *1461#. The cost of the bundle is deducted from the customer’s airtime balance. Bonus airtime cannot be used to subscribe for the bundles.
The 90 minute bundle cannot be used between 5pm and 9pm. Both bundles are valid for 24 hours, after which the subscription is automatically renewed, unless the customer opts out, which can be done by dialling the same short code as was dialled for the subscription.
Telecel marketing director Octivius Kahiya said the promotion will offer new customers unbeatable value.
It brought together into one package Telecel’s new SIM card welcome benefits, its super voice bundles and the modified mega bonus reloaded promotion.
