Customers are set to continue benefiting from the cut throat competition in the telecommunication sector as players continue to flood the market with promotions and subsidized packages.
This week, Uganda Telecom (UTL) launched a new promotion codenamed ‘U Switch’ which gives UTL customers a chance to call people on the same network throughout the day at Shs 750.
To confirm this, Uganda Telecom posted on its Facebook page:
“Hello all. The big thing we have been waiting for is here. Uswitch, the latest product from Uganda Telecom that gives u unlimited calls all day for just Shs 750. Its time to Uswitch. Tell your friends and relatives.”
Far still, in a press release, UTL’s new CEO Stanley Henning said that following the government of Uganda handing back the company to its major shareholder LAP Green/UCOM, UTL now sends a clear message to all skeptics who continued to spread speculation and rooting for the company’s closure following the 2011 crisis in Libya.
“We have been quiet for a while because of shareholder problems and some people started spreading rumors that we were closing. Contrary to that, Uganda telecom is here to stay. The launch of this new product therefore is a clear statement to the market that we are back and that we are now going to grow from strength to strength to become the premier telecom provider in this market,” Henning said.
