Cable & Wireless brings holiday cheer with gifts and savings
Cable & Wireless is offering real value to customers this Christmas with a wide selection of deals, savings and gifts. This holiday season customers can take advantage of great mobile, Internet, prepaid phone card and SmartChoice offers.
"We are excited about this campaign, as it's the first time we've offered our customers so many products at once during the Christmas season," said General Manager Timothy Adam "Our Christmas campaign is full of discounts on mobile phones, prepaid phone cards and international calls along with one month free offers on SmartChoice and Internet service."
When customers sign up for one of three plans for SmartChoice, they get one month free. All digital phones and accessories are half price with activation of the phone upon purchase. A special Christmas prepaid calling card offers $20 worth of calls but costs only $16 and can be used until March 2001. By signing up for Internet, customers get one month unlimited access free plus waiver of the $35 connection fee. Additionally, customers can take advantage of the new PC Package offer which bundles 30 hours of Internet monthly with a Dell computer.
"Christmas is the one time of the year when everyone wants to wish family and friends overseas a Merry Christmas, so to complement these great savings, Cable & Wireless is applying weekend rates from December 23rd to January 1st on all international calls.", said Mr. Adam.
These rates
apply only to calls made from fixed telephone lines. Payphones, mobile
phones, operator, card and Inmarsat calls are not included. SmartChoice
TalkAway discounts apply.
