Another Link: Etisalat extends voice SMS discounts

Etisalat’s recently launched Voice SMS service has been a phenomenal success. This popularity of the service has prompted Etisalat to extend the introductory discount offer till February 29, 2008. Customers will only pay Dh0.18 per Voice SMS till the end of the offer period. Voice SMS service allows Etisalat customers to communicate with family and friends more frequently in a more personal manner instead of sending SMS, said an official spokesman. Mobile customers of Etisalat have found the Voice SMS facility an ideal solution to exchange their greetings, allowing them to record their personal voice clips of up to 30 seconds instead of typing text SMS and sending it to any other Etisalat mobile users, who will receive the SMS notification and the steps to follow to retrieve the Voice message. The most significant feature of this service is that since the message is recorded in the sender’s own voice, there are no language restrictions as with text SMS. This is enabling the multicultural population of the UAE to reach out and connect with their friends and family in their own language.
