CWS introduces first-ever Super Off-Peak rate

- fixed to mobile rates slashed by up to 60%! -

Always looking to provide even more value to customers, Cable & Wireless Seychelles (CWS) has revised and reduced all fixed-line to mobile call tariffs across the board.

As of the 16th of November 2007, all fixed-line customers making calls to local mobile numbers have been benefiting from the new rates. A special feature of these rate reductions is the introduction of a brand new, first-ever super off-peak rate at just 69 cents per minute! To date, this rate is the best ever permanent (i.e. non-promotional) fixed-line to mobile rate in the country and will be applied from 11pm to 6am, 7 days a week.

In addition, the company has also reduced its peak and off-peak rates as well to SR1.85 per minute and SR1.20 per minute respectively. This will ensure that customers get the value they deserve 24 hours a day.

Speaking on behalf of Cable & Wireless, Mrs. Alise Saminaden, Manager IP & PSTN Products & Services, said: “Cable & Wireless is excited to offer its fixed-line customers the best ‘around the clock’ value. In particular, customers can now reap the benefits of the first-ever, best-ever super off-peak rate at just 69 cents per minute! These reductions go to show our ongoing commitment to the Seychellois people and we are delighted to offer the opportunity for our customers to better manage their communication budget. ”

The new published call rates are inclusive of GST and applicable to fixed-line calls made to local post-paid and prepaid mobile numbers (CWS and Airtel).
