Jordan Telecom Group (JTG) has launched the first of its kind service in the Kingdom enabling Orange fixed line customers who are subscribing to "Your Choice" offer to have a line and choose one of "Your Choice" packages with monthly fixed fees, with the ability to recharge their lines when the packages minutes are up using the electronic receipts or scratch cards of a mobile operator, namely MobileCom, the wireless arm of JTG.

The announcement was made during a press conference attended by JTG's Chief Financial Officer Mr Raslan Deraniyeh and Fixed Marketing Manager Mr Iyas Qubaia.

"Fixed line customers, both old and new, benefiting from packaged offers will be able to continue to control their expenditure, while enjoying the freedom of recharging their accounts through MobileCom pre-paid scratch cards, freeing them from the limitation of their line balance," said Deraniyeh.

"This service comes to answer a valid fear that acquirers of the fixed line service experience once their accounts are low. Such a fear may stop customers from getting this efficient cost control method for their fixed line," said Qubaia.
