vodafone-galaxy-s4Vodafone has launched special caller tunes for speech and hearing impaired users on the occasion of ‘International Disability Day’. These caller tunes can be availed lifelong for free.

After downloading and activating either of the 2 special caller tunes, anyone calling them will be requested to send a message via SMS or Whatsapp, which they can see and respond to. The caller tunes can be activated by sending “CT 8894702” SMS to 56789 for English-Hindi-English and “CT 8894716” SMS to 56789 for Hindi-English-Hindi.

P. Balaji, Director – Regulatory, External Affairs & CSR, Vodafone India said,

Vodafone is committed to leverage the potential and reach of mobile technology to drive inclusion and address developmental challenges in the society. The launch of these Caller tunes is the latest example of this endeavour. The Vodafone Foundation has diligently worked with our partner Enable India to create this simple solution to make the daily lives of our specially-abled customers convenient. This innovative idea is also a small gesture of our support to the Government’s Vision of Accessible India.
