Ooredoo has launched their all-new value-added plans, designed to help travellers to the UAE stay connected and keep in touch. These incredible new bundles, named Musafir UAE, from the leading telecoms operator have double the data than the current Musafir bundles and are available in daily, 2 day and weekly options. In addition to the double data, Ooredoo has also reduced the rate of the ‘calls back home’ to be the same price as local Omani calls, providing peace of mind and allowing customers to ‘Roam Like Home’ when they are in the UAE. For customers travelling to other countries in the GCC the original Musafir plan continues to be available.

Describing how Ooredoo came up with the offer, Feras Al Shaikh, Director of Consumer Sales said: “We always make it a priority to connect with our customers whether in our stores, through our website or Contact Centre, on social media, or via the Ooredoo Oman App. The input we get from these conversations and interactions helps us deliver the products and services our customers want at the time they need them.”

“Lately, we have seen the increasing importance of data when travelling, as people, for example, keep up with emails, share their experiences on social media, or perhaps look on-line for restaurant reviews and the best deals in shops. So this promotion has been developed in response to these trends and it is our pleasure to launch it at a time when so many are planning trips to the UAE ahead of the summer months.” 

Feras went on to explain that Musafir subscribers can join the promotion at any time until 16 June 2016, by dialling *141# or via the Ooredoo Oman App. He stressed that data roaming should be switched on only when the confirmation message is received, and that the network named on the phone should always be Ooredoo.

This latest promotion in a string of successful value-added products and services reaffirms Ooredoo’s commitment to enriching people’s lives through technology. The company combines extensive global expertise and talented, caring people with a genuine understanding of Omani culture to provide the highest levels of user-friendly technology and customer satisfaction, at home and away.
