DIGICEL PNG’s leading telecommunications provider has come on board to help provide relief to the people of Vanuatu by zero rating all calls on its network from Digicel PNG to Digicel Vanuatu.
Digicel customers from both countries can now make calls on the Digicel network free of charge so they can remain connected to their loved ones and ensure that they are ok, as the country recovers from a 7.3 Magnitude Earthquake that hit the island on the 17th of December, 2024.
Digicel PNG CEO Tarik Boudiaf said, “Our hearts and prayers go out to the people of Vanuatu who are affected by this devastation. As one of the leading telecommunications within the Pacific, it is only fitting that we show our emphathy to our fellow islanders in this time of restoration. By providing free calls from Digicel PNG to Digicel Vanuatu numbers, we hope our customers can remain connected with their loved ones in this time of need”.
Boudiaf continued, “The country and its people are recovering in the aftermath of the massive earthquake and any support is much needed and we are happy to be of service to them”.
Both Digicel Prepaid and Postpaid customers are eligible to make international voice calls using their Digicel PNG number to Digicel Vanuatu numbers at no cost and vice versa. The free calls are available from 21st December – 27th December, 2024.
Digicel Pacific is also providing free calls to Digicel customers in Fiji, Naru, Tonga and Samoa; so they too can stay connected to their family and friends in Vanuatu.
