Users to get more ranges from Smile’s yearly subscription

Subscribers on the Smile Communications network can now subscribe to different ranges on the annual data plans.

The latest products developed are the trio of 15GB, 35GB, and 70GB, all of which have 365 days of validity. The 15GB comes at the price of N9,000; 35GB is on sale for N19,000, while 70GB is only N32,000.

According to Smile what sets the offers apart is the longevity. The validity period for most data plans in Nigeria ranges from one month to three months. At best, it may extend to six months, this underscores the novelty of the range of new offerings.

To many market watchers, it is refreshing to have products with 365 days validity period. This extended validity period is a breath of fresh air that continues to thrill customers, according to Idowu Odusanya, an Ikeja- based lawyer and telecommunications enthusiast, and it is gradually becoming a standard feature of products from the stable of Smile Nigeria. Ogochukwu Okonkwo, an Ikeja-based telecommunications merchant, was similarly inclined.

Invariably, this addition of three new plans to the 365 days validity period family is partly to cater to lower-end data users.

They desire to enjoy the seamless services from the number one Unlimited data plan provider in the country. The three new data plans will, among other things, compliment the earlier product offerings from

Smile with 365 days validity period. Notably amongst these are the 125GB plan priced at N50,000; 200GB for only N70,000; 500GB priced at N100,000 and 1,000GB ( 1TB) that goes for N120,000. All these offerings are viewed as market leaders.

Famous as the first 4G LTE network in West Africa, Smile Nigeria was the first to launch VOLTE on its network and continued its innovation, having introduced Smilevoice. Smilevoice is a free mobile app that enables customers with any Android or Apple iphone device ( including those which are not VOLTE- enabled) to make Superclear voice calls over Smile’s 4G LTE network. Smile was also the first to introduce an unlimited offering, enabling Superfast data and Superclear voice, all in one bundle.
