Flexi SMS can be used for sending local or international text messages.

Commenting on the new pack, Khaled El-Khouly, Chief Consumer Officer at Etisalat, said, "At Etisalat, we are keen to introduce plans and offerings that cater to the unique needs of different customer segments. The UAE has a large Filipino population, many of whom are Etisalat's customers. Our Pinoy Pack addresses the need of this customer base to socialise with their friends locally, as well as stay in touch with their families or friends in the UAE and the Philippines. The competitive pricing and benefits of our pack allows them to do just that, and we hope the Filipino community takes advantage of the new plan."
