TTCL Tanzania Internet Bundles 2021: Pesa, Menu And More

Filed in Article by on March 10, 2021 1 Comment

The Tanzania Telecommunications Company LTD (TTCL) was founded in 1994. It is currently one of the largest telecommunication companies in Tanzania pegged on providing top quality and affordable services. The company offers a range of services to not only its consumers but also businesses, other licensed telecom operators, and the government of Tanzania.

TTCL Tanzania came to the forefront barely two decades ago but now boasts an extensive following. Its rise began with the changing times, such as better technological infrastructure as well as some internal factors. Much of TTCL’s growth can be accredited to its predecessor, the Tanzania Telecommunications Corporation, which was dissolved in 1994. Separating the postal bank and postal services from the telecommunication company has enabled the latter to focus solely on its growth.

Despite operating in Tanzania, this telecommunications company has its headquarters in Thailand. There is another company headquarters in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania as well. All operations are run through the capable management and operations team in Tanzania.

Insights On The TTCL Tanzania Organization Structure

With funding from the World Bank Group, TTCL has the resources to operate as a national telecommunications company. The organization is entirely state-owned and run by popular CEO, Waziri Kibanda. TTCL management team also includes a chief financial officer (Alinanuswe Mwakitalima), a chief marketing and sales officer (Peter Ngota), and a company secretary (Lugano Rwetaka). Not much is known about the junior-level TTCL management team.

It also has a chief technical officer, a chief internal auditor (David Kalayi), a human resources head (Edward Emmanuel). The Tanzania telecommunications giant also relays little information regarding its management to the media. In case of any vacancies, TTCL publishes this information on its official website. You can also find TTCL Tanzania tenders on the company’s official website or government online portal and physical publications.

TTLC has the reputation of uniting people, especially from rural areas. The telecommunications powerhouse is also famed in the six Tanzanian cities. TTCL was tasked with providing efficient telecommunication services in and around Dodoma and delivered. The TTCL logo even has the words “huleta watu karibu/brings people closer” on it, which is the company’s mantra.

    If I have a ttcl internet service Connected at my home and if I happen to travel out and shut down my internet receiver, will I be required to pay or be charged for the internet not used at time that I wasn’t at home, or charged for whole period that I did not renew my subscription, hence, no internet provision was available during absence?
    I would appreciate to receive your official comment about what is applicable to a customer who did not buy their monthly package of internet service because they have travelled away from their homes.
