The new product allows prepaid subscribers on the Glo network to send a request to a specified USSD code under emergency situations and receive airtime of different denominations, depending on their profile on the network. The initial denominations available are N50, N100, N200, N500 and N1000, a statement from the company said at the weekend.
According to Globacom’s Marketing Co-ordinator, Adeniyi Olukoya, “BORROW ME CREDIT” is the first of its kind in the country.
“Within minutes of requesting for the service, subscribers will receive the airtime requested and get confirmation through a text message. The credited money is taken back from the Glo prepaid subscriber when he recharges his account next time”, he said.
Olukoya explained that the credit can be used like a normal recharge for making outgoing calls, sending SMS as well as uploading and downloading data on the internet.
