Oman’s customer-friendly communications provider Ooredoo Oman has partnered with Swedish multinational networking and telecom company Ericsson to migrate and consolidate its online charging system, making the customer experience even better.

As part of the collaboration, the customers of Ooredoo will benefit from the cutting-edge Ericsson Charging System, which will allow them to quickly retrieve and update account information, keep track of expenses, balances, and bonuses, and enjoy available items all online and in real time, all while avoiding “bill shock.”

The alliance is part of Ooredoo’s Transformational Strategy, which aims to create the foundation for the next age of the company’s Information Technology Architecture in order to promote the company’s purpose of enriching people’s digital lives.
