ZAIN Zambia Plc on Monday announced a landmark record of three million subscribers on its network. The announcement came only weeks after the giant mobile telecommunications company launched a countdown campaign to celebrate this development.

According to a statement released by Zain Zambia’s public relations and corporate affairs manager Kennedy Mambwe, the record-breaking achievement within the Zambian telecommunications industry was an endorsement that ‘Zain is truly the most preferred mobile phone service provider covering the nation’s 72 districts and beyond’.

And announcing the development in Lusaka, Zain managing director David Holliday thanked customers for their loyalty and choice of Zain as their preferred network.

“Our network covers all districts in Zambia with the lowest calling rates. More and more people are joining Zain each day; from customers who have a genuine communications need and who want an economical phone with our 1Kwache Che offer, all the way through to small and large business and corporate customers. Whatever the needs of our customers, we at Zain have the solution,” Holliday said.

On November 2 this year, Zain announced a count-down campaign to celebrate the three millionth customer by giving a number of prizes to selected customers on the network.
The three millionth customer this month is receiving a gift of K3 million in talk-time credit to their phone.

“The celebration continues until the end of the year. Every day thousands of our customers will be winners - already we have given away over 108,000 free credits and 27 I-Pods in celebrating this milestone, provided customers have their Zain phone switched on at some time over the seven days prior to our daily draw, they will be eligible for a prize,” said Holliday.
