Glo empowers subscribers to borrow for others

Digital solutions provider, Globacom, has launched another innovative service which allows a subscriber to request for airtime and data for friends and family when they run out of same.

Globacom explained in a press statement issued in Lagos that with the service called Borrow for Others, a pre-paid subscriber can borrow any denomination of airtime or data on behalf of another subscriber. However, such a borrower must have been a loyal and consistent subscriber on the network for at least 3 months.

In addition to this, the company stated, the  borrower should have a good credit history with the network and is expected to pay back on his or her next recharge within a given  period or by dialing *321*9*9#.

Globacom added that all a subscriber needs to do to enjoy the service is to dial *777# or *321# or access the service online, and then indicate how much he or she wishes to borrow on behalf of another subscriber. “For instance, a subscriber who wants to borrow N25 airtime is required to dial *321#, choose option 4 “Borrow Credit for Others” to select the required denomination”, the company explained.

In the same vein, to borrow data, the subscriber will need to dial *321# and choose option 5 “ Borrow Data for Others” to select any required data pack that they are qualified for.

According to the telecommunications solutions provider, the borrowed airtime can be used to call all networks or make international calls, while the borrowed data can be used to browse the internet as one desires.
