Dialog
celebrates 5 million customer milestone with new call regime
Dialog GSM achieved 5 million subscribers last week, cementing
its position as the premier mobile telecommunications service
provider in the country as well as celebrating the milestone
by unveiling a new call regime.
With over 50 per cent of the mobile market share Dialog has
now connected a quarter of Sri Lanka’s population. As
part of a celebratory offer, the company introduced an unprecedented
call charge regime through a brand new post-paid package,
plus, per-second billing for its pre-paid segment through
yet another package.
Dr. Hans Wijayasuriya, Group Chief Executive of Dialog Telekom
PLC, attributed the milestone to his company’s philosophy
of ‘Innovation for Inclusion’. “Dialog is today
truly a company for all Sri Lankans, as we have aptly demonstrated
by connecting with 5 million customers. Segment specific solutions
drive increased levels of inclusion across multiple layers.
Bringing mobile telephony within reach of every Sri Lankan
puts in place a vehicle for digital empowerment, and Dialog
will continue to be that catalyst,” he said.
Nushad Perera, Group Chief Marketing Officer of Dialog Telekom,
said “this is a proud moment for all at Dialog, to know
we are connected with and have empowered 5 million Sri Lankan
lives. Customer-driven technology solutions and unparalleled
service have been the key facets of our success, and would
continue to be so when we connect the next million. It was
Dialog GSM that changed the face of mobile telecommunications
in Sri Lanka and South Asia, and in today’s fast-evolving
environment we would continue to lead by example.”
Dialog GSM is celebrating 5 million connections with groundbreaking
offers for post and pre-paid subscribers; for all Sri Lankans,
with unmatched benefits. Per-Second Blaster is the exciting
new package for post-paid users, which offers 1,000 minutes
of free outgoing calls to Dialog numbers at any time of the
day. With incoming totally free from any network, customers
can also enjoy per-second billing and My10 services for no
monthly rental. All this for a nominal package transfer fee
of Rs. 500, while new connections would could be obtained
for Rs.1,000.
Dialog pre-paid customers could avail themselves of the Kit
Per-Second Package and enjoy the benefits of per-second billing.
Outgoing calls to Dialog numbers from Kit pre-paid are now
just Rs. 3.00 a minute at any time of day. The Lifetime Discount
would continue to apply for those who pay for the service.
Also, for every Rs. 50.00 reload all Dialog Kit pre-paid users
