4G/LTE Mobile Network Operator, Smile Communications Nigeria Limited today in Lagos unveiled its 0702 number range, as a further push to express its status as an innovative full telecommunications services provider.
The unveiling is seen as a move to address the misconception that the company, which has been in operation since 2013 in Nigeria, is an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
According to Mr. Godfrey Efeurhobo, Smile’s Managing Director, Smile is the first Telecommunications service provider in West Africa to deploy the 4G LTE that enables it to provide the most advanced telecommunications technologies and standards available anywhere in the world using the 4G LTE network technology.
“The launch of the true 4G LTE network in Nigeria and indeed in West Africa in 2013 revolutionized the way Nigerians access the Internet. We have in the recent past unveiled a number of innovative Voice and Data services and we are only reinforcing our 0702 number range,” he said.
The 0702 number range comes with the lowest call tariff that allows Smile’s customers to make calls at 8kobo per second to any network from within and outside the country at the same rate, using SmileVoice App on any Smart Phone, and its 4G LTE SIM on Voice over LTE compatible handset.
Efeurhobo added that Smile 0702 number range offers the best value proposition and experience to customers in Nigeria. “The Nigerian consumers can put their Smile 4G LTE Sim in the LTE handset, use their handset to make calls locally and to anywhere in the world, for Internet, video/music streaming/downloads and SMSs, all using one Smile bundle plan, which is a first in this market,” he explained.
