  • The Future in Telecom is Telenor because of its Clear Voice Quality + Innovation Product + Wide Coverage in Pakistan.
    However, I am wonder that what happened with Ufone, coming down and still down even they are spending a lot of money on the TVC. I think, the management of Ufone is sleeping and unaware with fact n figures. Ufone 2nd Rank to 4th Rank……lol

    • Dear use warid if you want some taste of quality network with no marketing they are on third position the best network in voice and data

      • zong 2gb data pakage in just 200 rupees has the best price quality ratio. I am constantly getting 8 to 25 kb per sec. a 5 mb mp3 downloads in app 8 mins.

          • i am in multan and its edge here. i have checked it in different parts of city. result is same as i told earlier

              • i have used warid also. in multan its download speed is same as of zong. and sadly warid dont have complete edge covarage in multan. in most parts of city its simple gprs. and its 2gb data package is only available to postpaid users and that for 500 per month and zong providing 2gb data package for 200 per month. and in multan zong have much better edge coverage as compared to warid , mobilink and ufone.(almost whole city and its surrounding too) . only telenor beats zong in this area

                and guess what i have installed fring in my mobile (e50) and can do voice chat with my brother any where any time. he is abroad. thanks to skype :-)

  • It also means Ufone now at fourth place in terms of customers. Still Ufone is not ready to revise its 30 Second package. Others are offering best rates in 30S & 20S pulse but they are trying to fool people in the name of tension free package. Let us see when Zong beat Ufone if they still follow the same policies

  • well… ufone ko chahye sms package k sath sath cheap internet aur mms packages bhi start kare baqi call rates aur service buhat achi hai aur tension free package koi bewaqofi nahi zong de rahai Rs 0.65/30 sec jo ek min k Rs 1.30 hote hain aur telenor 0.63/30 sec jo ek min k Rs 1.26 hote hain aur Ufone de raha sab se sasta rate poore pakistan mein sirf 1.20/min to sasta konsa hua?

  • look @ difference:
    Mobilink Founded 1994 (15 yrs), Ufone Founded 2001 (8 yrs) & Telenor Founded 2004 (5 yrs)…

    Telenor is already ahead of Ufone and gaining on Mobilink…

  • Is the figure of 96.7 milion mobile subscribers mentioned in the post excluding all those SIMs which were blocked after 668 survice?

  • bro what about 3G availability in pakistan, any information regarding any mobile service provider…plz
