History
WorldCall launched its business in June 1996 with payphone operations. Amid fundamental shifts in technology and industry, innovation led to growth in diversified businesses with a range of services designed to serve the needs of the local market. With milestones like LDI and WLL commercial operations, fiber and HFC layouts and a number of firsts to its name, WorldCall transformed into a significant Telecom & Media Company.
In May 2008, Oman Telecommunications Company (“Omantel”) acquired majority shareholding in WorldCall.
