Ooredoo revamps its Suhoola bundle to offer 10 times more data to customers with special needs

Continuing on its journey to inspire human growth through technology, Ooredoo has released a hugely upgraded Suhoola bundle designed to empower people with special needs. Offering unrivalled value, the new package includes reduced call rates and 1GB data, ten times the previous allowance, to allow its customers to stay connected for longer.
Feras Al Sheikh, Director of Consumer Sales at Ooredoo, said: “Responding to the needs of the disabled community has always been central to our goals. Over the years, we have consistently reaffirmed that commitment by developing a dedicated bundle for people with special needs to make a world of choice accessible to them. Our revamped Suhoola bundle offers them more data and greater savings. One of the reasons we increased the data allowance is that we know there are lots of apps on the market that help with improving quality of life in people with disabilities. All these apps need data to work so by providing 1 GB per month, we are ensuring that they can be used as often as needed. To us, Suhoola is more than another product, it is a service that empowers users to grow.”
Freeing customers with special needs from paying an activation fee, the improved Suhoola bundle delivers free 1GB of monthly data, alongside voice and video rates as low as 19 Bz per minute for calling within the Sultanate. Customers registered with the Ministry of Social Development and holding the necessary card can get Ooredoo’s latest inspiring service. For more information customers can visit any of Ooredoo’s 40 stores located across the Sultanate, the majority of which are wheelchair friendly. Ooredoo are currently working with building owners to ensure that all stores will be wheelchair accessible by June 2016.
Customers can also find out more on the Ooredoo website: www.ooredoo.om, where there is a section specifically for recommended apps and devices that are specific to certain disabilities.
