It offers complete convenience to consumers to get talktime when they need it the most. For Eg. When a user has run out of balance and cannot reach a retailer immediately, but is in urgent need to make a phone call, he/ she can activate the ‘Reserve Talktime’ account and use the balance in reserve.
