Viva Bahrain has launched a comprehensive business range of smartphone devices accompanied by voice and data plans intended to offer business customers maximum connectivity, flexibility and value for money.

The plans and devices aim to offer professional users the right combination of voice and data plans, both locally and internationally, to meet their daily communication needs, a statement from the telecommunications company said.

Ulaiyan Al Wetaid, Viva acting CEO, said: “We give businesses the ability to choose precisely the plans that meet their needs, creating excellent value for money.”

The company offers two base options for voice plans, Viva Business 6 and Viva Business 15, which come with multiple benefits such as closed user groups (CUG) allowing free calls and SMS between employees, a built-in data bundle allowing internet and email access, calling rates as low as 15 fils per minute to any network in Bahrain, as well as a flat-reduced rate when calling STC in Saudi Arabia.

In addition, it has also introduced a business data package that will allow companies unlimited data access on their smartphones, enabling them to access business applications or reply to clients’ and colleagues’ emails without incurring extra data charges.

The business data add-ons are offered at BD5 ($13.32) for 4GB and BD10 ($26.64) for the unlimited package.

Having customised their voice and data plans to best suit their needs, customers can take their pick of the latest smartphones available on the market, including several BlackBerry and iPhone models.

Businesses can get Blackberry or iPhone devices for no upfront charge with a 24-contract and pair them with the voice and data packages they find most convenient. 

“With a dedicated business sector, account managers and a business help desk, we are able to provide the necessary level of professional care for our business clients,” said Nezar Banabeela, chief of enterprise and wholesale. – TradeArabia News Service
