       ANSWERS
     
    Can I use your SWIFT phone number anywhere in the world at the same local rates and without any roaming charges?" Can i travel with your number as if it is SIM based to be used abroad and then it will roam free? I thought a fixed line cannot be carried traveled abroad with to roam like mobile?
    Indeed, you can use the SWIFT number anywhere in the world provided you have access to good quality and reliable broadband available for the device you are calling with. You will need a small phone adapter (e.g PAP2 or sipora) which we will configure with our number. When outside Nigeria, the phone adapter can be connected to your fixed line to enable you enjoy the same call rates as you have on our network in Nigeria without any roaming charges. Once again, you will only pay the same rates that we have advertised for all your calls irrespective of your location in the world, though you will be responsible for providing your own broadband service whenever you are outside our coverage area. If you need more details of the phone adapter, please let us know so that we provide and configure it for you at minimal one off cost.
       
     
    Pay only N10.20k per minute to all other national networks (fixed or mobile) without any hidden charges", does that mean we will be able to negotiate calls to MTN, Glo, ZAIN etc networks at that rate or what? please explain?
    What this means is that you pay a flat rate of N10.20/minute to any national network as the only charge to you. You will not incur an access fee and you can make calls to as many numbers as you wish at this rate.
       
     
    How do I get charged for the telephone calls I make?
    If you wish, we can charge your voice calls to the same account that you currently use for subscribing to your broadband services. This would mean that your voice call charges are deducted from the same subscription you have made for broadband OR we can create a separate voice account which you will pay in money the exact same way you currently pay for your broadband subscription. This second option would allow you to keep your voice call charges separate from your broadband subscription, though you have to recharge/subscribe to both services separately. Please let us know which option suits you best and we will take care of the rest.
     
     
    How do I get my itemized bills?
    Your itemized bills will be available also in the self care portal where you currently check the usage for your broadband service
     
     
    I want one phone+fax line pls. With my system, is it possible with an externalized 4G modem? Like everyone else, I shouldn’t pay more.
    Yes the service is possible with an external 4G modem provided the router has a voice port. If not, an external adapter can be used to connect to this service. Our support engineers will make contact with you tomorrow to arrange for your connection
