M-Web, an internet service provider, has introduced
yet another promo, where DVD players and discounts will be given to subscribers
that buy the fast satellite download product throughout the duration of the
promo, tagged “M-Web Be Way Ahead”.
M-Web’s General Manager, Mr. Jannie Van Rhyn,
who disclosed the information in Lagos, explained that the promo, which has
already begun, is meant to encourage M-Web customers and would- be customers.
He said the DVDs that are being given out are highly functional sets with
components like DVD, CD, CDR, MP3, photo CD and Multizone, among others.
“M-Web subscribers are expected to be way ahead
of the rest, so we decided to add more value by giving away DVD players, as
free products, to enable our valued subscribers own one of the most useful
household entertainment appliances in the world today,” Van Rhyn said.
M-Web fast satellite download product is such that
subscribers could connect to the internet via a phone line and download
information through a satellite at a very high speed of between 64 kilo bites
and 128 kilo bites per second, depending on the speed the customer desires. It
differs from the regular dial-up connection where the download is simply via
the telephone line. This, according to the company, makes M-Web service faster
and more reliable, explaining that it ensures customers’ quick surf, as
well as fast download of emails and attachment.
Core benefits of M-Web internet download include
speed, quality of service, affordable prices, 24 hours technical support,
leverage on international experience and resources, among others.
