"With 14 sites ready and 18 to come, the company is doing everything possible to ensure its customers stay connected during the summer holidays," says Mohamed Hassanally, Automated Innovations Manager at Engen's retail business. "Now passengers can also cruise the information superhighways on their smartphones and tablets."

Dumisani Bengu, Retail Business Manager says, "We are constantly working to bring our customers new innovations that will enhance their shopping experience."

"Simply SMS your email address to 32707 and a unique pin will be sent to you to access Engen's Wi-Fi service there and then. Telkom Mobile subscribers get one hour free. Each device is eligible for 30 minutes of free Wi-Fi per day," Hassanally says.

He adds that travellers who cannot stay for half an hour at one service station should not worry, as their remaining Wi-Fi minutes can be spent at other Engen 1-Stops that offer the service. "You don't have to SMS again either, just hook up to the hotspot and you will be connected."

"It's important to us that we enable our customers to fill up on fuel, convenience and now, megabytes at our service stations," says Bengu. "It is in line with our pledge to always put the customer first, as espoused by Engen's brand promise."
