After this, no additional costs will be incurred for reverse calls for the rest of the day.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Reverse Call service allows customers to make calls without having airtime, with the receiver covering the call\u2019s cost.<\/p>\n<p>The service is accessible only to Safaricom subscribers, and the receiver must have sufficient airtime for the call to be completed. To initiate a reverse call, customers should dial # followed by the number they wish to call, for instance, #07XX XXX XXX.<\/p>\n<p>When the recipient answers, they will hear an announcement asking them to either accept or decline the call. They can press 1 to accept or 2 to decline. If the receiver accepts, the call will be charged at standard rates. If the receiver declines, the call will be disconnected, and neither party will incur charges.<\/p>\n<p>Importantly, the Reverse Call service is not available for international calls, as it is designed exclusively for local calls. Additionally, the service cannot be used while roaming.<\/p>\n<p>However, customers can use reverse calls in conjunction with other calling resources such as All In One minutes, Okoa Jahazi, and Bonga points.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Safaricom PLC has announced updates to its popular reverse call service, which has been a key feature for many subscribers since its introduction in 2019.
