KATHMANDU, APRIL 29: With a focus on customers who visit the neighbouring countries India, China, and Bangladesh for various purposes, Ncell has launched an attractive Border Roaming Pack. The pack, launched yesterday, allows customers to easily stay always on at a more affordable rate during their short stay visits to these destinations.
Upon subscription to the pack, customers instantly get 500 MB to stay connected using
data. The roaming pack is activated at just Rs 100 including the applicable
taxes and one can benefit from access bonus data and roaming service for 3 days i.e. just Rs. 33 per day.
The pack, which was launched on the occasion of the Nepali New Year 2081, is
activated by dialling *17129*5# Likewise, customers can subscribe to this pack via
mediums like the Ncell App, Ncell website, and digital platforms.
Once the customers subscribe to the pack, the roaming service to these neighbouring
countries gets activated. For India, there is a whopping 32 per cent discount on the Pay
As You Go (PAYG) rate for incoming calls and making calls in India at just Rs. 16.48
per minute including applicable taxes. The users are allowed to send SMS at just Rs. 6.34 per SMS, which is 29 per cent less compared to the PAYG rate.
In the case of China and Bangladesh, the bonus roaming data could be utilised to stay
connected and use other services at existing standard rates. Once activated, the pack
remains valid for 3 days and customers can again activate this pack based on their stay
and service requirements.
A great benefit to activating and using the Ncell roaming service is that customers would
receive their SMS alerts without the need to use foreign exchange for
purchasing new SIMs , according to the company.
