KT Provides Free Announcement Service for Emergency Disaster Relief Fund Usage Locations

[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] KT announced on the 25th that it will provide the Lingo Service announcement message for free to make it easier to check where emergency disaster relief funds can be used.

KT Lingo Service is a call connection tone service exclusively for small business owners. Instead of the usual call connection tone, consumers who call the store hear announcements such as business hours and location information. Emergency disaster relief funds can mostly be used at dining establishments and convenience stores, but usage may be restricted depending on the headquarters location, franchise address, and operating methods. KT decided to offer free guidance on 'Government Emergency Disaster Relief Fund Usage Locations' through the Lingo Service to reduce customer confusion and improve the work efficiency of small business owners.

The service is available to customers using KT landline phones and subscribed to Lingo Biz Premium or Lingo Biz Plus. From the 25th of this month, customers can apply directly through the notice section in the customer support menu on the KT website. Application is possible after verifying subscriber information such as landline phone number and date of birth. Upon application, the announcement message "Our store accepts government emergency disaster relief funds" will be applied immediately. The service period is until August 31. Lee Sung-hwan, Executive Director of KT 5G/GiGA Business Division, said, "We decided to provide free landline phone announcement messages so that customers can easily confirm franchise stores where emergency disaster relief funds can be used," and added, "KT will continue to fulfill its social responsibility as a national company."
