    Telenor Myanmar extends non-stop roaming to Malaysia, Singapore

    Telenor Myanmar has expanded its unlimited international data roaming service to Malaysia and Singapore, one month after the launch of the new service in Thailand.

    The company’s non-stop data roaming pack offers unlimited data in the three international markets for total fees of 999 kyats ($0.65) for three days of service. Speeds are uncapped for the first 1GB per day, and then shaped to 512kbps.

    Prepaid and postpaid customers can activate the service on the MyTelenor APP, sending a message to a dedicated number, or dialing a different number.

    “We are amazed by the support we have seen on our latest roaming product for visitors to Thailand. So we decided to extend this popular service to Malaysia and Singapore which we know as the other two most frequently visited countries in Southeast Asia,” Telenor Myanmar CMO Amaresh Kumar said.

    “We have made international roaming affordable for everyone and we welcome our customers to experience the only worry-free data roaming packs that users can get in Myanmar.”

    Thanks to the connections of parent company Telenor from Norway, Telenor Myanmar now offers roaming services with 171 partner operators in 125 countries, with its 4G roaming service currently available in China, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, UAE, Canada, Macau, Taiwan, New Zealand, Sweden, Belgium and Norway.

    Meanwhile subscribers to 227 operators from 134 countries can use their overseas SIMs with the Telenor network in Myanmar.

  • Airtel to allow prepaid data top-ups for postpaid plans

    Airtel to allow prepaid data top-ups for postpaid plans

    India’s Bharti Airtel has introduced an innovative new service allowing post-paid business customers to top up their data allocations with prepaid credit.

    The operator will allow customers to recharge their accounts through retail or online credit purchases or mobile wallets.

    The new Prepaid on Postpaid feature has been introduced to give business customers more flexibility in how they use their mobile plans while simplifying the data experience.

    Users of corporate plans that lack mobile data, for example, could pay for their own allocations rather than needing to swap SIMs or devices every time they want to use their data allocations.

    Standard prepaid data recharges start at 99 rupees ($1.48), the company said. Airtel has asserted that allowing prepaid top-ups for postpaid plans is an industry first.

    Bharti Airtel is India’s largest mobile operator with an estimated 245.8 million customers as of the end of January.
