Saudi Telecommunications Company (STC) has announced that Sawa users can receive 10 minutes of free calls for every five minutes of calls to numbers abroad over the next month. The month-long offer began on Sunday, Feb. 7 and means that a single 15-minute call will result in only the first five minutes being charged. If the user does not use the 10 free minutes accumulated, they are then added to the user's account and will remain available until midnight of the same day. STC added that the user need not make a call of five consecutive minutes in order to claim ten free extra minutes. Shorter calls 10 accumulated and a free ten minutes is achieved when the total call time for all calls abroad the same day reaches five minutes.
