The NTRA recently issued a decision prohibiting selling new mobile phone lines outside a company’s affiliated sales points. The decision also prohibited selling these lines in stores which belong to their accredited distributors. This decision was issued to control the sales of new lines and reduce the number of anonymous lines.
Samy added that these company’s expansions in branch numbers has increased the number of new employees, with the company hiring over 3,000 employees. After this expansion plan, Etisalat Egypt owns the most official sales points in Egypt. It also satisfies its clients’ needs, in accordance with the NTRA’s instructions and procedures regarding registering the sold lines, and ensuring that all the client’s data is defined as per the device.
