Telkom Mobile debuts voice-centric products

Telkom's rebranded mobile arm has introduced contract plans featuring unlimited on-net mobile calls.

Telkom Mobile's Smart and SmartSaver post-paid voice plans offer customers access to unlimited calls to Telkom Mobile and 8ta numbers and, on some plans, unlimited access to free WiFi at Telkom Mobile hotspots around the country.

Telkom says some of the plans offer free voice minutes, free megabytes of and free SMS for use to any network. Some plans also include unlimited calls to one Telkom landline.

Attila Vitai, MD of Telkom Mobile says the company's "Smart" range "an early fulfilment" of the mobile arm's bid to serve the higher end mobile consumer.

"We have categorised the Telkom Mobile plans to make it easier for customers to choose one that best suits their usage patterns. We know that some people use a lot of voice, some use a combination of voice and data, and others lots of data. So we have structured our plans that way."

Vitai says the plans were designed with flexibility in mind. "Many post-paid customers want a particular level of control over their spending. We provide this with the SmartSaver plans where customers can cap their usage and if they need more airtime or they can buy a top up bundle."

This new range of plans follows on the recent launch of Telkom Mobile's Unlimited Voice contract, which offers unlimited calls, at any time, to any national mobile and national fixed network.

Vitai says consumers can look forward to more products from Telkom Mobile in future. "Telkom Mobile is moving swiftly into new market segments as we aim to deliver on the demands of high-usage customers."
