During the holy month of Ramadan, Batelco postpaid and prepaid mobile customers will be able to participate in an MMS (Multimedia Message Service) competition that focuses on photos and voice clips. To enter the competition customers are invited to send any Ramadan related picture to 9900 or to record Ayah 185 from Surat "Al Baqara" from the Holy Quran as a voice clip and send it to 9900. The top two best pictures and top two best Quran readers will each win BD500. The winners will be announced on 1st November.
Customers can access their MMS voice clips and pictures on Aywah, the popular Batelco service that allows you immediate access to information, services and content, directly on your mobile. If you are not already registered for Aywah, log onto www.aywah.com.bh and follow the simple instructions. If your Mobile phone is not configured to send and receive MMS, you can configure your phone by either calling 196 or by visiting www.batelco.com.bh/simcardmenu/.
"The holy month of Ramadan is a very cultural and religious time for Muslims all over the world and as a Bahraini Company with 94% Bahraini staff, we wanted to offer a competition to celebrate this special time," said Batelco Corporate Affairs General Manager Ahmed Al Janahi.
Multimedia messaging has reshaped mobile communication, making it more personal and more expressive than ever. Similar to SMS, MMS provides automatic and immediate delivery of personal messages. However, unlike SMS, MMS allows you to enhance your multimedia message by including other rich content - transforming your message into a personal visual and audio clip.
