3G/4G Users in Pakistan Reach 35.5 Million

The reason Behind Ufone user loss was just they did not give 3G coverage to enough areas, maximum left Ufone because of this. Their 2G service is better than other operators.

I have 4mb unlimited ptcl in my house and i pay roughly 2900 per month for internet+smart tv and azadi phone package its roughly 2500 per month for Naya Tel which is way better than PTCL but has costly first time installation because of fiber optic usage
My friend has it and i confirmed a super iteresting fact about it that naya tel actually is faster on prime hours
Its slow in office hours but even in office hours as compared to PTCL its still faster
I think they offer 9 mb,s and 300 channels(some are hd) for 2500 per month

Thats a damn robbery... How can it be so expensive?

Its because gradually but surely Ufone service has gone down , it seriously sucks , IMO zong is best , its real speedy but doesnt have unlimited data and that sucks

Surprising to see Ufone is getting a dip, may be mainly because their advertisement team has not come up with something new since quite long.

Yes indeed and if they will slash down the rates, even higher figures for consumers numbers will be recorded within no time.
