Mobile Service Provider, Airtel
Nigeria and one of the worlds leading mobile phone brands, Nokia have
introduced a “Nokia phone exchange program” here in Nigeria for their
customers. What am I talking about? If you own a Nokia phone and maybe, for
some reason you think you need a new one, you can swap it for a new one at any
Airtel Office.

The answer to the question you are
already asking your self is NO! You cannot swap it for just any phone. You can
swap your old Nokia phone for a Nokia Lumia 520, and sorry to burst your
bubbles too soon the Nokia phone exchange is not completely free. LOL! To
exchange your old Nokia phone with a new Nokia Lumia 520, you have to pay a
“phone exchange” fee of 23,990 Naira irrespective of the type of
phone you want to exchange.
It’s getting more interesting…
Just in case you don’t still
understand what is going on, a new Nokia Lumia 520, goes for about 28,000
Naira, so this deal could be a fair one for Airtel or Nokia customers using
nokia phones cheaper than 6,000 Naira. The deal doesn’t end there anyway…
So what else are my going to gain?
Customers who participate in the
Nokia Phone Exchange program will be rewarded with 6 months free airtime
worth 6,000 Naira for both data and on net calls.
According to Insua Bello – the Chief
Sales of Airtel Nigeria, the initiative is the first from a Mobile
Service Provider in Nigeria, which is aimed at providing Nigerians with a rare
opportunity to own smart phone devices. It is also in line with their commitment
to making the Airtel the most loved Nigerian brand.
How
To Participate in the Airtel – Nokia Phone Exchange Program
It’s simple! Just walk into any
Airtel office nationwide, with a functional Nokia phone and a phone exchange
fee of 23,990 Naira, then place your order. I still wonder whether they’ll
collect all these “Nokia Torchlight” phones. This could just be one
of their many strategies of getting people port to their network
