MANILA, Philippines - Smart Communications has launched an offer allowing its prepaid subscribers to send unlimited SMS or text messages to more than 85 million mobile subscribers across all networks nationwide, at a flat and affordable rate.
The new variant, which complements the telco leader’s ‘on-net’ offers, is expected to ramp up and add more value to Smart’s prepaid portfolio. About 90 percent of Smart’s subscriber base is on prepaid.
Dubbed ‘Lahatxt Unli 25’ and available to all Smart Buddy subscribers, the new offer is an affordable answer to the needs of mobile users with contacts that are on other networks. For only P25, subscribers will be able to send unlimited SMS to all networks, valid for one day.
“With Lahatxt Unli, we are breaking down the cost barrier and providing the flexibility for Smart subscribers to communicate affordably with not only 46 million fellow Smart subscribers, but also to their contacts in other networks,” Smart wireless consumer division head Danilo Mojica said.
To avail of Lahatxt Unli 25, subscribers must register to the package by texting LTU25 to 2266. The package costs P25 and is valid for 24 hours.
The subscriber must maintain P1 airtime balance to continue using Lahatxt Unli 25. This offer will be available from July 15 to Nov. 30, 2011.
Smart Load and other prepaid bucket offers are available from Smart’s nationwide network of over 1.3 million load sellers.
