Bharti Airtel on Monday said it would offer the full mobile website of popular social networking service Facebook free of charge to its subscribers across the country. Valid for two-months (till August 31), Airtel mobile customers will be able to access the Facebook's full mobile site faster and at no data cost via m.facebook.com.
The Facebook's mobile site will be initially available in English and Hindi, while five more languages — Punjabi, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam — would be rolled out globally for the first time on Airtel by July 15. Customers accessing the mobile internet for the first time need to simply SMS ‘FACEBOOK' to 54321 to take advantage of this special offer.
“Our mobile customers will also be the first in the world to enjoy Facebook on their Airtel mobile in five vernacular languages. All these reiterate our commitment to customers to offer the best value-for-money services that enable their lifestyles,” said Bharti Airtel CMO (Mobile Services) Shireesh Joshi.
Facebook Head of Mobile Business Henri Moissinac, said “working closely with Bharti Airtel is a great opportunity to bring our full mobile experience to its 13-crore customers across India. Today, more than 10-crore Facebook users around the world access the site through their mobile devices.”
