Etisalat has announced the launch of the new easyblaze promo which rewards new customers who purchase a USB and Mi-fi with free bonus data at the end of every 30 days for a consecutive period of six months. The promo which kicked off last week allows customers to enjoy a modem, data SIM card and 200MB free monthly data the cost of N5, 500 or a Mi-Fi, data SIM and 1GB monthly data at the cost of N20,000.
Announcing the promo in Lagos, Director, Products and Services, Etisalat Nigeria, Lucas Dada, said the offer was to reward its customers who subscribe to data packages on the Etisalat network and also to encourage new subscribers to its network.
Dada further explained that data is the future of telecommunications. “In the light of this, the new easyblaze promotion is not only designed to encourage consumers to enjoy high speed internet at the most affordable prize, but also encourage new customers to take advantage of the different data packages on offer by the network that makes your communications lives easier”.
Highlighting the mechanics of the new easyblaze package, he said that to enjoy the promo, subscribers are required to purchase a data plan of 200MB (worth N1,000) every month after the first month of activating the easyblaze data plan. This gives them 30% instant bonus when they subscribe to any of our data plans from 200MB.
“To participate in the promo, you have to buy either a USB (for N5, 500) or a Mifi (for N20, 000) from any of the Etisalat Experience Centres. The USB comes with pre-loaded 200MB free data while the Mi-fi comes with pre-loaded 1GB free data, but to enjoy the free data for the remaining five months, you are required to purchase a minimum of 200MB (i.e. N1,000) on your line within each month,’’ Dada concluded.
He disclosed that the purpose of integrating the bonuses is to add value to our customers and offering customers other options for internet services using modems such as the MF631 (7.2mbps modem) or any of the other modems available in Etisalat Experience Centres.
