In support
for the initiative taken by the Government of Maldives to ensure access to
internet connectivity to encourage people to continue with daily routines
within the constraints of physical distancing and staying home, Ooredoo
Maldives has introduced a special offer which provides a daily 5GB allowance
for SuperNet Broadband Customers upon reaching their package inclusive data
allowances.
The offer
is part of the ongoing collaborations between Ooredoo Maldives and the
Government to provide support to local communities in the face of the increased
demand for data at this time, preceded by a formal request from the President
of Maldives H.E Ibrahim Mohamed Solih to local internet service providers.
This offer
aims to create an unlimited internet experience for customers, with the additional
allowance getting activated within minutes of reaching the monthly usage limit.
Once the
package limit is reached, customers will continue to get an additional 5GB
bonus every 24 hours till the renewal of their data allowance for the next
month. This is over and above the 25% free data allowance already announced for
our SuperNet customers, and will be valid from 1st April 2020.
Under this
initiative, Ooredoo Maldives is also working to facilitate the provision of
free, fast and reliable internet access for:
While
Ooredoo Maldives has extended its 25% bonus data offer for prepaid and postpaid
customers, the company is also working towards further lessening the burden on
customers due to home stay, e-schooling and working from home.
Managing
Director & CEO of Ooredoo Maldives, Najib Khan said, "At a time when
families and businesses are facing unprecedented challenges, I would like to
reassure our customers of our support towards managing all your affairs from
home. Globally, we are facing an unprecedented crisis with families and businesses
having to navigate through uncharted territories. While we do the same, I would
like to reassure our customers that our biggest priority is to provide high
quality services to keep you connected at this time of critical need, while
providing the best possible options to assist those who have been impacted due
to Covid-19."
"I would
also urge our customers to use internet diligently at this time. Across the
nation, internet connectivity has become a critical tool of support at this
time, be it enabling families to stay in touch, keeping businesses afloat,
powering online consultations with doctors and much more. At this time, it is
important to remember that broadband too is a finite resource, especially when
usage increases drastically over a short period of time. Use internet
responsibly and for the benefit of yourselves and those around you. As your
internet service provider, we have made several investments to increase
capacity for these needs. I would like to thank our teams who are working around
the clock to ensure that we are able to be there for you at your time of need.
We remain committed to enriching lives, as we have been since our establishment
here in the Maldives."
