What is Thunaii ?
Thunaii is a service that provides PostPaid mobile phone users with two different SIM Cards, both carrying one mobile phone number.
Using Thunaii, you no longer have to switch SIM Cards between handsets, which makes this service an ideal solution for anyone owning a built in car phone or yacht phone. With Thunaii, you can also benefit from a number of great features:
One bill statement for both SIM Cards
Choice of a common PIN for both SIM Cards or an individual PIN for each SIM Card.
No special monthly charges
Activating the desired SIM Card
To select the phone on which you wish to receive incoming calls, simply make an outgoing call from that mobile phone or dial * 4 3 # SEND. If you don’t do so, the mobile you make the last call from will be the one that is active.
What about Billing ?
The service is billed in the same way as a single SIM card with one bill statement for both SIM Cards, depending on the type of package you subscribe to. There are no special charges for using Thunaii, but a nominal sign-up fee applies as shown below.
