Batelco, Bahrain’s leading telecommunications company, has announced massive cuts  for International Direct Dialling calls from fixed lines. 

The reductions, which will be implemented starting from September 1, are available to all GCC countries.

The rate cut will reduce the telephone costs for those who have family and friends in the GCC countries and will offer a major boost to businesses dealing with regional markets.

The new prices will bring down the tariff to 100 fils per minute throughout the day, instead of 160 fils during peak hours and 140 fils during off-peak hours.

“In demonstrating its unrivalled commitment to customers, Batelco has introduced these excellent price cuts for its IDD service,” said Batelco Corporate Affairs general manager, Ahmed Al Janahi. – TradeArabia News Service
