Ufone-Hajj-Offer

Ufone has launched a new offer for pilgrims leaving for Hajj, under which Ufone Prepaid customers will be able to use their Ufone SIM in Saudi Arabia at lowest call rates, thus completely alleviating the hassle of buying a local Saudi Arabian SIM card.

Prepaid roamers who select Saudi Arabia’s Mobily and Zain networks will be charged at a minimal rate for outgoing calls to Pakistan and within Saudi Arabiaas well as on all incoming calls.

Additionally, incoming SMS from all over the world will be free of any charges. The offer is automatically activated on all Ufone prepaid numbers free of charge.

Moreover customers can take along a scratch card or ask their friends and family back home to perform Uload.

Here are Tariff Details:

  • Outgoing Calls to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia: Rs. 0.30/second (inclusive of tax)
  • Incoming calls from anywhere in the world: Rs. 0.48 per second
  • Per second charging is only applicable for outgoing calls to Saudi Arabia & Pakistan only. For other destinations standard IR tariff will be charged.
  • Incoming SMS: Free
  • Charges for other services will be charged as per standard IR tariff
  • User have to be on Mobily or Zain Network in Saudi Arabia to avail these rates

Terms & Conditions:

  • This offer is for prepaid customers only;
  • No subscription will be required to avail this promo
  • This offer is automatically activated on all Ufone prepaid numbers without any charges.
  • Per second charging can only be applicable when subscriber is latched to Mobily and Zain networks in Saudi Arabia.
  • Per second charging is only applicable for outgoing calls to Saudi Arabia & Pakistan only. For other destinations standard IR tariff will be charged
  • Per second charging is also applicable for incoming calls from anywhere around the world.

  • 0.3* 60 = Rs. 18/minute for outgoing calls
    0.48*60 = Rs. 28.8/minute for receiving calls
    Wow! that’s still pretty steep.

  • It is a good initiative by Ufone. But still it is good to use a local SIM since charges are almost same. Ufone could also offer free incoming calls from Pakistan or at least free incoming calls from Ufone since Mobily and Ufone both belong to Etisalat and they can easily afford this as Airtel and some other operators are facilitating their consumers ‘FEEL AT HOME’ with such roaming offers.

  • This rate is already applicable for all Prepaid SIMs and I am using one Ufone SIM in KSA.
    This is not a new service at all.

  • Quite reasonable offer…Considering the ease of connecting to your friends and family on urgent basis.

  • Me All my family and friends have smartphones so last yesr on hajj what i did is bought mobily 5gb data pkg for Abt 75 SAR which is 2000 Rs. I used viber for calls and whatsapp all the time and used it too much. So at ufone rate in Rs 2000 i can talk only 70 minuts. And still can’t see my family and friends and csnt share my live moment with them.
    Interesting things
    Mobily Dosent charge sales tax or FED also
    Hehehehehhe

    • Dear Cgill sb. and all other, I request that whenever any one have opportunity to go to Harmaineen then he/she should spend his/her mostly time in prayers at the Harmaineen because you can get new sim/ roaming facilities day by day but the time you have at Harmaineen no one know when it will be available again or not. So instead wasting time in taking pix / calls we should spend our time in prayers there. May b one call he/she in a day require to inform back to home that he/she is fine there or otherwise.

  • Thx for telling me. You are the only muslim and only you knows what to do at the hajj. Rest of us are all stupid who traveled and spend so much money to go over . Get a life and stop judging people. I jst shared a simple experience that what medium i used to connect myself to my family. I don’t know in what world we are living in. Where you took my simple comment? You start saying that i was only took pics there and did nothing else.
    Its useless to share anything here.
    Happy commenting.
    And plx don’t reply me to tell me where am correct where am wrong. You won already. I loose. Stay happy.
