Zong Announces Per min, Data Based and Unlimited GPRS Packages
We have covered before about Zong’s hourly GPRS packages, their unlimited and limit based internet packages for mobile users, which really changed the way people use internet while on the go.
Now at this point of time, they are introducing couple of new incentives and reportedly a campaign to aware mobile customers about available options they have got to use internet while on the move.
By the way, all packages can be subscribed through SMS or IVR (whatever is more convenient to you – all options will be available on IVR after July 5th, 2009).
Details on the packages are as follows:
| Default Packages | Time Based Packages | Monthly Packages | ||
| Prepaid | Zong Free | Rs. 10/MB
Charging unit 8kb |
Rs 0.25 per min
Activation charges Rs10 |
2 GB bundle Rs 2004 GB bundle Rs 400
Truly unlimited – Rs 999
|
| Zong 12 Anay | Rs15/MB
Charging unit 8Kb |
|||
| Postpaid | Rs15/MB
Charging unit 8Kb |
Truly unlimited – Rs 400
|
||
All rates are exclusive of taxes…!
As you can see, there are variety of packages available for internet lovers. Time bases, Size based and unlimited, both for prepaid and postpaid. Rs. 0.25 per min for prepaid looks very attractive to me, meaning that – one can check his/her email in just Rs. 1 – that’s wow.
How to Subscribe
To subscribe, prepaid customers can either call IVR 905 or send the following SMS to the SMS short code 905 for the respective packages
- Sub<space>2GB and send to 905 – for activation of 2 GB bundle @ Rs 200
- Sub<space>4GB and send to 905 – for activation of 4 GB bundle @ 400
- Sub<Space>Unlimited and send to 905 – Rs 999
- Menu and send to 905 – for all commands
- Postpaid customers can subscribe to the unlimited Internet package by dialing 905 only
Incase GPRS bundle users are interested in check how much of their bundle package has been consumed, they can simply send ‘balance’ to 130

its very good 2gb in just rs 200.
yar zong chah gaya 2gb wala anth hai!!
par zong k gprs ka masla yeh hai k its v.slow
i think they need to work upon thier network quality
amir bhai yeh buhut achi news kiyon k call aur sms rates main 50 percent say ziyada ki kami hoi laikin mobile internet wohi 16rs per mb zong k ilawa baqi sub mobile internet buhut mehenga hai,, baqi mobile oprators ko bhi internet tarrifs par nazar saani karni chahiye, kiya khayaal hai theek hai k nahin?
2gb in 200rs is really nice package…but zong gprs quality is not good some time even cannot open small page like google…..
GPRS is a failure technology and its like running donkeys in the War. not of use , lets see 3G will be launched.
Zong should not offer those technologies which is about to complete its life and about to disappear soon from the market.
Aamir Bhai Thanks for the Post
I will send you more news in future.
Regards.
Anytime bro

Hmmmmm! i am thinking about moving to zong seriously for the first time, i am using warid postpaid with infinite gprs package, which is no more infinite… they charge me 650+ for 2gb gprs, which sucks the most… speed is also not good, you cant even watch a clip on youtube mobile.
Woooh it is very good.Zong is rocking.
I think so there is no 2gb package. It is only enhancement to 4gb. Has anyone activated 2gb package only?
The command u have written “send balance to 130″ is not working, msg return from network as “Dear customer, you input error format command.” and other command “p send to 102″ is giving incomplette report just remaining data for use in kb format only without last date with .50+tax per sms, they shuld keep it free and show usage report in gb, mb, kb for both remaing data and used also.

Does someoneknow how Zong Data based internet package calculate the data and its charges.
I am asking as I have developed a mobile app which
– opens a socket b/w my host/server and mobile
– sends few 100 bytes (less than 1 KB) to my server
– receive few 100 bytes in response from server
– close the port
So in worst case zong should charge me for 16KB … right i.e. 15 to 18 Paisa?? But I noticed that my balance is reduced by at least .5Rs or more. Soany one have any idea how they calculate these charges. Thanks
@Shahzad:
You might have activated the per hour package offered by zong. I guess that is why they are charging you .5.
