Airtel has introduced a new “UnlimiNet 20 bundle” for just Ksh 20/- and valid for 24-hours for pre-paid customers and the firm is in talks with competitor Safaricom to utilize Safaricom’s bandwidth and
launch 4G across the country.
Currently, Safaricom has launched 4G in a number of towns but has not pushed it much as less users have 4G devices but the firm is working with vendors to push affordable 4G devices across the country.
Airtel’s new bundle comes with 20 MB data, 20 SMSs and 6 minutes of calls to any network and free access to Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp against Safaricom’s Ksh 20 bundle for 35 MB data and 35 SMSs minus free access to social networking sites.
Airtel has also launched new weekly and monthly bundles on its UnlimiNet plan: with Ksh 50, customers get to enjoy 10 free minutes voice calls to any network, 50 free SMSs to any network and 65MB data weekly. With Ksh. 500, customers get to enjoy, 100 free minutes voice calls to any network, and 500 free SMSs to any network and 1GB data monthly.
The bundles valid for 24-hours within the day of subscription can be purchased by simply dialing *544# from an Airtel line, and following the prompts to complete the transaction.
