Etisalat has scored another first after been able to crash the tariff for voice calls in Nigeria since 2009 by going further to crash the tariff of its BB plans.
The old Social plan has been discontinued and the Full BIS replaced with Blackberry Absolute Plan with the Complete retained.
Also the plans have both voice and non-voice variants. The non-voice you can have side by side other main packages while the voice plan is a standalone plan that gives subscribers advantage of making calls at a 20 kobo per second to all networks in Nigeria and 5 international destinations viz; US, Canada, India, China and Uk (fixed lines).
Below shows the different plans and their codes:
