NetOne Launches Reverse Calling to Keep Subscribers Connected Without Airtime

HARARE — Mobile network operator NetOne has introduced a Reverse Calling service that allows subscribers with zero airtime to initiate calls, shifting the cost of the call to the receiving party upon acceptance.

Under the new service, a caller without airtime can dial a dedicated prefix or follow an automated prompt after attempting a call with insufficient balance. If the recipient accepts the call, charges are applied at standard call rates to the receiver. Declined calls attract no charges to either party.
