I was wondering that why all of a sudden Telenor started advertising of its 3 or 4 months old service Telenor smart menu, however later I understood that it was in response to Ufone’s Fun Menu.

Lately Telenor has adopted this habit of advertising their products, as soon as the competition launches somewhat similar product. On one side, its good practice to cater competition, but on other side, I am wondering why didn’t they advertised these services in first place?

Do you remember guys recently when Zong launched their Email to SMS service, telenor started advertising their old email to sms service to give an impression that Telenor is so quick to response, however, there is plenty of difference between Email to SMS services of Telenor when compared to Zong’s.

OK about the amazing launch of Ufone Fun Menu,

First Paktel launched this type of service years ago, with code *150#, then came the Zong with code *100#

Telenor launched similar service with command code *345#

And now Ufone came with this service of ease ^.^

You can choose from many options , while controlling your Ufone subscription dialing *333#

Accessing the main menu is free, however, requesting sub menus is not free – prices are given below.

When you dial *333# from your Ufone you get
