The ETECSA page indicates that the recharge special will send the recharged balance to the main balance of the Cubacel line holder, understanding the life cycle of the mobile line to be 330 days. This balance can be used for all services offered by the telecommunications monopoly.
In order for users to enjoy these benefits, they must receive the recharge through “international distributors”, as this offer does not apply to recharges made in the MLC (Freely Convertible Currency) Stores or with the USD account of the MiTransfer wallet. .
After making the transfer from abroad, users on the Island will receive an SMS confirming the recharge.
Price of international recharge to receive WhatsApp for free
It is important to remember that the telecommunications company continues to manage the exchange rate of 24 CUP for each dollar (USD), which is very different from the official rate of 120 CUP for each USD and much further from the price managed in the informal market. , where one dollar can reach up to 310 CUP.
Due to this, reaching the minimum recharge of 500 CUP costs around 20 USD, depending on the commission handled by distributors abroad. This money could be used in the Exchange Houses (CADECA) to obtain about 2,400 CUP, while the same amount in the informal market could be worth just over 6,000 CUP.
