Globacom has introduced the Glo Zero Facebook, an exciting new offer which gives subscribers on the Glo network access to Facebook pages on their mobile phones free of charge.
In a statement by Globacom’s Marketing Coordinator, Mr. Niyi Olukoya, the company said with the Glo Zero Facebook, subscribers on the network have been empowered to network and socialise on Facebook without paying for data subscription.
“The implication of this awesome service is that our subscribers can now keep in touch with their friends, family and even business associates on the social network site, Facebook from their Glo lines without having any data subscription or airtime on their phones,” Olukoya said.
Olukoya advised subscribers to type zero.facebook.com, 0.facebook.com or o.facebook.com in the uniform resource locator (url) box on the web page to be able to enjoy the service, adding that the new mobile sites include all the key features of Facebook which are optimised for speed with zero data charges.
He also stated that customers will only pay for data charges when they view photos or when they leave 0.facebook.com to browse other mobile sites.
“When you click to view a photo or browse another mobile site, a notification page will appear to confirm that you will be charged if you want to leave 0.facebook.com,” Olukoya said.
Globacom said that Zero Facebook was designed to solve the two major challenges people around the world face when using the mobile internet - speed and cost of data.
“With this product, the subscriber can update his status, view News Feeds, like or comment on Posts, send and reply to Messages, or write on Friends’ Wall just as we do on Facebook.com. Rather than making photos viewable on 0.facebook.com, the photos are one click away, so it doesn’t slow down the experience. You can still view any photos on Facebook if you want, but your regular data fees will apply,” the statement said.
According to Olukoya, “there is a lot of content on the Web and many customers do not have any idea about how to get it. Globacom wants to bring this vast resource closer to the subscribers at no cost”, he said.
