The Extinction Of Phone Call Centers In Nigeria .. by RaDaZaBaNa(m): 11:48am On Oct 23, 2015
I noticed that this once lucrative business is fading away Slowly....

Perhaps due to the airtime borrowing offered by network providers these day or cheaper call rates. The business of paying to call is slowly going into extinction.

How is the situation where you reside ?? Did you also notice the decrease in phone calls center around the Country?

yeah. I could remember very clearly when call centers charges you 20 naira per minute regardless of whether or not you elapse a full minute

But with the slash in call price tariff by operators , you can afford to make calls as cheap as 12 naira per minute and even you get billed on per seconds basis.
Evolution of the industry you'll say.

call centre has gone into extinction nw because mobile phones are very common and call tariffs are getting cheaper.

I cant make call in a call centre even at N10/min.

That annoying moment when you make a call for 00:01:05 and you are being charged for 2mins. Thank God for cheap call rates.

It is not only call centers also, the way people troops into our house in the 1980's to wait for calls was really disgusting then. Some will wait from morning till evening just to receive call from their loved ones on our private line.

Op is it now that you are taking notice of the call center business moribund?

Your observation is as slow as airtel service in an android phone.
