Responding to great customer feedback and the popularity of the Nawras Mousbak International Credit Transfer service, Oman’s customer friendly communications provider has added eight new countries to its list of operator partners. This allows customers to conveniently transfer credit to friends and family abroad in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Jordan, Syria, Morocco, Tanzania, Turkey and Iraq in addition to India, Pakistan, Philippines, Bangladesh and Egypt.
Ammar Al-Lawati, Nawras Payment Services Manager, said, “The success of Nawras Mousbak International Credit Transfer service is due to our pleasingly different approach as we strive to continuously grow our innovative range of services to help and delight our customers.”
He added, “Nawras Mousbak customers can now get closer to more friends and family abroad by transferring airtime to prepaid customers of over 25 different operators in 13 countries. International Credit Transfers of up to 19 Omani Rials per month can be sent in a safe, fast, convenient, reliable and cost effective manner.”
One of many Nawras firsts, the service is simple and easy to use by dialling *222# to view instructions in English or Arabic. From the menu displayed, International Credit Transfer should be selected and the recipient’s international mobile number entered. This is followed by deciding the amount of airtime to send from the choice of four denominations shown for each currency. When the International Credit Transfer message is sent, the corresponding value and charge is deducted directly from the sending customer’s Nawras Mousbak credit with the recipient receiving the credit in real time.
Nawras customers can find more information about this service by sending a free SMS with the keyword int r to 1500 or by calling 1500. Feedback on the service is welcomed and can be sent to InternationalTransfer@nawras.om
