Nawras Celebrates Ramadan in a Different Way

Nawras continues to add to this special time of the year, as the customer friendly communications provider supports the community in numerous pleasingly different ways. One example is the exciting offer of unlimited calls for RO2 which is continuing until the very end of the Holy Month and enabling everyone to get closer during this important time.

Nawras Customer Champions are taking care of customers throughout the Holy Month in the same way as they always do. There is no reduction in service here. Around the clock, customers are being helped with their enquiries so they can get more enjoyment and value from their mobile experience. Despite this being a time when most people would love to stay at home and spend more time with their families, Nawras Customer Champions continue to provide the award-winning non-stop service that contributed to them earning the accolade of Middle East Call Centre of the Year.

As a further benefit to customers during Ramadan, all Nawras customers are able to call any Nawras number they choose, such as a close friend or family member, all day from 5 a.m. until 5 p.m. for a one-off daily fee of only RO 2. Once the RO 2 fee is paid for the day all calls to the selected Nawras number will be free until 5pm. This incredible value provides a great opportunity for family members dispersed across the Sultanate to easily keep in touch with great value from Nawras.

Customers get more from Nawras with the reduction of two of its popular services: Prayer Time SMS, and Athkar SMS and MMS. For a monthly fee of just 250 Baisa, Nawras customers can receive a daily SMS giving the full daily prayer time schedule for any of the key cities in the GCC. Prayer time messages are delivered after the last prayer of Ishaa’ each day, showing the city name, the following day’s date and the applicable time of Fajar, Shrooq, Dhuhur, Asur, Maghrib and Ishaa’. The Athkar service – which provides ideas for prayers - is available in Arabic in both simple text (SMS) and rich multimedia including sound (MMS).

Nawras customers can still take advantage of the fantastic international call offer providing a great opportunity to share experiences and thoughts this Ramadan, with family and friends who are far away. Calling prices have been slashed with lower call rates introduced for seven of the most popular international destinations: India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and also Tanzania. For example, customers calling India pay only 99 Baisa per minute for calls during the promotion giving a lot more talk time for their money.

Nawras currently covers 96% of the population with its reliable EDGE network and over 40% with its trusted 3G+ network.
