Vizz Mobile has introduced a UK mobile virtual network operator called Vizz Africa, which offers the UK's first prepaid airtime credit transfer to Africa. The new offering will help African community in the UK keep contact with their relatives in Africa.
Vizz already has partnerships with major African mobile operators through its parent firm, QiComm. The company in January launched Dialog Vizz, a mobile operator for the Sri Lankan community in the UK.
Pat Nabhan, CEO of QiComm, said: “The African community in the UK is naturally conscious of the cost of getting in touch with their loved ones back home, but they also want reliable, high quality services and a convenient means of credit transfer.”
Saj Nabhan, Vizz Africa’s head of carrier sales, said: “Our awareness of the needs of the African community and unprecedented operator partnerships with operators in the region enable us to offer Vizz Africa users an optimum level of service. We think the differentiation of service that we can offer will ensure Vizz Africa seizes a healthy slice of market share.” GTB
