This is aimed at making calling international destinations more affordable to existing and new customers across Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>The new rates take effect from August 10 and cover calls to more than 15 popular international destinations.<\/p>\n<p>With the adjustment, calls to the United States will now cost \u20a630 per minute, down from \u20a635. The rate to the United Kingdom has also been slashed from \u20a6400 to \u20a6350, while India drops from \u20a645 to \u20a640. Other countries that recorded significant reductions include China (\u20a675), Saudi Arabia (\u20a6300), and Cameroon (\u20a6700).<\/p>\n<p>Rates to neighbouring African countries have also been reviewed. Benin Republic now costs \u20a6650 per minute, Niger Republic \u20a6750, Ghana \u20a6500, and Togo \u20a6650. Calls to the United Arab Emirates have been reduced from \u20a6450 to \u20a6325. Germany is now \u20a6550, C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire \u20a6700, Libya \u20a6700, while Malawi has dropped from \u20a61,200 to \u20a61,100.<\/p>\n<p>The telecom operator noted that the revised rates are part of a broader strategy to provide more value for new and existing Glo customers and encourage them to make Glo their preferred network for their international calls due to the affordability and competitiveness of the reduced rates.<\/p>\n<p>Globacom also hinted at the rollout of new IDD bundles that will provide even more attractive deals for frequent international callers.<\/p>\n<p>Customers are encouraged to take advantage of the new rates to stay connected with their loved ones and business partners around the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Amah Kindly Share: Globacom has announced major reductions in its International Direct Dialing (IDD) rates, with call rates going&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7363,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,2],"tags":[72,1569],"class_list":["post-7362","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business-economy","category-news","tag-globacom","tag-man-slices-off-genitals"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.8 -
