NetOne introduces OneFusion package

- Kiyapili Sibanda Business Reporter

STATE-owned telecommun­ication company, NetOne has introduced a $3 OneFusion package and is set to review its social media data tariffs downwards by 6.7 percent to $2.80.

The $3 OneFusion package bundle comes with one hour OnNet, 10 minutes Off Net, 250MB Generic Data, 250MB WhatsApp bundles, 250MB Facebook bundle and 10 SMSs.

The company’s chief operating officer Mr Clever Isaya said they decided to come up with this economic OneFusion product as a way to ensure all subscriber­s enjoy the service.

He told Business Chronicle that they also wanted to give customers the much-needed control over their communicat­ions budget.

“As you are aware, a significan­t number of subscriber­s have moved onto our network mainly because of this OneFusion product. We have also noted that there are some who would have wanted to be on OneFusion but were failing, as they could not come up with the required amount for the entry OneFusion level which is $5.

“We then decided to come up with this affordable $3 OneFusion package to ensure that all our subscriber­s will have a chance of enjoying this great product,” he said.

Mr Isaya said their customers remained with an option of migrating between the various OneFusion packages thus giving them the much-needed control over their communicat­ions budget.

He also said they have been continuous­ly upgrading their network, with most of their sites now on 3G and 4G to ensure their subscriber­s get the best service all the time.

Early this month, NetOne rebranded its OneWallet platform to OneMoney, which can be linked to any ZimSwitch-linked debit card.

The Postal Telecommun­ications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe is on record saying the cost of data in country should be made affordable and this was critical in facilitati­ng efforts to bring down the cost of goods and services. — @Kiyaz_Cool
