It maybe recalled that Telenor had recently increased prices for Mobile Internet bundles for postpaid plans. Company had also changed the charging pulse for postpaid customers from 30 seconds to 60 seconds.

    Seriously, who DOESN’T raise prices? I use Telenor since 2005 and Mobilink since 2002 and yes it hurts when prices go up, but I don’t expect them to make loss just because Dollar is going up (equipment is imported) or local inflation. They are companies and companies are for-profit, so I expect the prices to go up.

    • Aamir has it done again. He continues to target Telenor.

      In a market which has saturated, prices going up is somewhat a non-issue. Companies run on employees which need money, not love and recognition, to run their households.

  • if its post paid than its only Warid Post paid a great services and most economical no. However with internal company condition internally as customer i do not care. Warid rocks in Post Paid

  • Best service?? I am having problem with their Edge service for last 6 months and they have done nothing to resolve it.
    Been thinking to switch for a while now, I guess I should just do it.

  • for information, mobilink also increased its postpaid tariffs earlier than Telenor n they did not even bother to inform (atleast me) ! :(

    • and even Propakistani doesn’t seem to notice what Mobilink is doing with thier Postpaid customers either. their onnet rate is even higher :(

  • The most loyal customers are again hit and almost forced to switch to prepaid plans that offer unlimited calling and un-metered SMS sending.

  • Shame on u telenor, I just switched to postpaid 5 days before. Curse on telenor, even ur weblounge service not working…. Pity

  • I would have completely ignored it if their service was even 50% of what it used to be until late 2012. Unfortunately, Telenor has completely destroyed their quality and image and their Data Network (which is almost 80% of my cellphone usage and bill) hardly ever works now.

    Most of my colleagues have already switched from Telenor postpaid, and I’m also evaluating Mobilink for the past month.
