the Asia Pacific region.
Cell
One's Roaming service gives customers a convenient and affordable way
to stay connected while travelling outside of Namibia.
Our
service includes access to SMS, voicemail and data services while our
affordable international roaming rates will help customers to
accurately predict the cost of the services on offer.
Cell
One's Roaming Officer, Hayley Olivier, explains the important factors
to consider when
identifying roaming destinations.
Commenting on the latest roaming partnerships established with
Networks in Argentina, Madagascar, Canada and the Netherlands, Cell
One's Corporate Communications Manager, Rejoice Itembu said her
company is increasingly meeting the communication needs of its
customers by supporting all their business and private mobile
connectivity while they travel outside of Namibia.
"Cell One
acknowledges that roaming services cost more than domestic telephony,
and has therefore developed several hints that will enable customers
to choose the specific services they intent to use while outside of
the country. By limiting their usage to the most essential services,
customers will be able to save significantly on the amount of money
spent on communication services", Itembu noted.
Cell One
Prepaid customers can roam in Angola, while data roaming is available
in South Africa and Italy.
