SWAZI Mobile knows how to look after its customers. Swaziland’s fastest growing mobile company has announced that it will give 1 000 users the surprise of their lifetime by giving them Swazi Mobile shares.
These are customers who missed out on the shares programme at the end of December 2017,when the shares offer programme ended. A total of 1 000 additional users have qualified to be shareholders in the company as they purchased over E500 airtime during the Shares Offer Programme which ended in December.
“Those who were unable to meet the target of loading a minimum of E600 Swazi Mobile airtime should not be deterred as they have not lost out on being part of the #79 family of shareholders,” said Swazi Mobile CEO Jeff Penberton, who said this was done in the spirit of inclusiveness.
“The company has seen it fit to reward those who were E100 short of reaching the target,” he announced.
Having gone through their data, the mobile network company has identified 1 000 people who will join the 14 000 who have already been confirmed eligible for shares, pending registration through the submission of know-your-customer (KYC) details.
The shares offer programme commenced last year when Swazi Mobile went live, with the qualification criteria calling for customers to purchase E600 airtime and receive 30 unique calls from August to November and December as per the extensions that followed to give more Swazis an opportunity to own shares in a 100 per cent Swazi company.
The idea of the Swazi Mobile Shares Offer Programme was introduced prior to the company going live last year, as a means of ensuring that ownership remains vested with the ordinary Swazi.
The programme was open to 100 000 shareholders from bona fide Swazi citizens to take advantage of getting free shares and when the period to qualify ended, 14 000 – and now an additional 1 000 - qualified.
Swazi Mobile has invited those who have qualified for the shares to expect their call centre agents to be in contact to notify them of the process to register for the shares. “They can expect to receive calls from us, to be notified officially that they have qualified for the shares,” Penberton added.
