Dhiraagu is pleased to introduce the following special offers to support Maldivian pilgrims and their families during Hajj.

• All international direct dialed (IDD) calls made to Saudi Arabia between 20 January and 20 February 2003 will be charged at a special low rate of Rf 10 per minute. This is applicable for calls from all fixed lines, Post-Paid and Pre-Paid mobiles and payphones, but not for operator-assisted calls through 190.
• Pilgrims wishing to use their DhiMobile phone while in Saudi Arabia can subscribe to our international roaming service by paying only 50% of the standard roaming deposit. In addition, Dhiraagu will, on request, lend a mobile handset to pilgrims subscribing to DhiMobile and international roaming service for the first time. This offer will be open from 16 January and will be valid while stocks last. Customers should bring their Hajj ID cards when applying for service.

New customers need a sponsorship letter from an existing Dhiraagu customer, who agrees to pay all charges incurred, if the new customer defaults. The sponsor's original National ID card will also be required with the letter.

Customers with any queries can call 123 FREE (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) or email [email protected].

Note to Editors :

• Normal rate for calls to Saudi Arabia during peak hours (0800hrs - 1959hrs) is Rf22 per minute and during off peak hours (2000hrs - 0759hrs) is Rf17 per minute.
• During this promotion DhiMobile Roaming customers in Saudi Arabia receiving calls from the Maldives will be charged approximately Rf10 per minute. This is cheaper than calling the Maldives from a fixed line in Saudi Arabia, which would cost the equivalent of approximately Rf18 per minute.
