3- Mobilink
4- Ufone

Warid might leave

Zong is investing highly…while mobilink is still industry leader. Ufone has lost focus and warid,…well….warid is going down.
Propakistani Reader

UFONE won four races,
1- new subscriber addition
2- Net Addition.
3- Minutes Consumption
4- Perception of improved Brand
Telecom Specialist

Annonimous,

I think you were weak in maths or you have sickness of walking during sleep Or a person being lead by his wishes against the reality

This could be the slight correct perception during next two years

1- Telenor
2- Ufone
3-Mobilink
4-Warid
While Zong will remain on fifth

Soon few more people are in just pipe line, ready to move from Zong and you might face Job Threat in a month of so……

I Wish you survived

warid zem prepaid packages are 4 to 5 years old . not a single change in them . reasons are obvious for warid going down
Sumair

LOL at Warid, they seriously need to introduce some new packages!
ahmad

mobilink figures might not be true . if you remember when there was checking of numbers by PTA issued on one CNIC . . and mobilink was no 1 with fake numbers registered with one NIC . . i was having 8 mobilink numbers registered on my NIC . . and actually was having only 1 mobilink number
Mustang

Ufone and Telenor progressed very well and will be threat for Mobilink in Future
Sprituality

Ufone Zaida Acha Ja raha ha regardless the trends being shown , it looks that Ufone has decided something and moving towards change of positioning (3 to 2)

Every operator have different criteria of subscriber base I am active user of Warid and have Telenor sim did n’t seen sim last six month but I am sure I am active in Telenor’s database.
Telenor have lost its major corporate accounts and really doubt about true subscriber base.
Also warid and telenor have almost same revenue so ArpU counts a lot. As warid is still largest post paid subscriber base.

  Number remains active in telenor database for 365 days unless u perform a single activity even balance check. In other words, a single activity performed even balance check gives u 365 days for ur number to b active in ur name from the date of activity
  - waqas
    
    Warid counts active subscribers who perform any activity in last 90 days.

i am warid user and am really upset to see warid loosing so many customers.. I think warid’s service is better then mobilink and ufone and zong. still its loosing..

i think warid needs some good marketing.
Telco

Dont you forget all……..

Mobilink is industry leader, a change leader, a revolution leader & Mobilink will be future of Telecom in Pakistan…..

And the hard fact, may be everyones knows or not that the main chiefs of every Telco is Mobilinker and if they are going up in revenues, market share etc then its also achievement of Mobilink becaue he trained them to be a leader.

Hard but Fact.
Adeel

This definitely explains Warid’s current marketing stint..

Piyarey Bhaio!

I am currently using warid the best of all operators, though not offering new packages but voice quality is best, sms delivery is fastest than any other.
sajjad

lack of proper coverage, quality and customer satisfaction would threaten zong. recently ported back from zong.
TK

No. of subscribers doesnt matter. What really does it people who are using the service must remain satisfied, I don’t have any complain with warid, voice quality, sms delivery has always surprised me. Even if the count reaches 1, I would be happy to be that one :)

Yeh baat mainy nahi rakhti k kon sa network grow kar raha hai baat sifr apni sahoolat ki honi chahie k aap ki zaroorat kon sa network poori kar raha hai with less price.agar aap dakhain to Zong hi esa hai jo aap ko sab se sasta package 7/day for unlimited calls.

@Aamir Atta
The first sentence is, “Number of mobile phone subscribers reached 114.61 million by the end of January 2011, taking mobile phone teledensity to 66.5 percent.”

I think instead of January 2011, it must be January 2012??????

What you think??

Faisal Alvi

Warid need only marketing… network is best among all. its true 100%.
A.Hussain

Ufone is a trendsetter in market for additional services, and its repetitive generic strategies are focussed to its subscriber in becoming a best cellular option.

Zohair Khaliq has resigned from Warid.
