  • you mean they bagged this award by doing things under the table for which mobilink is famous. we all know mobilink does many things under the table

  • Well said @Khawaja. Mobilink customers are hard to find for the past five years or so. And still they bag this “award”. Astonishing, isn’t it? Some point-scoring or cheap publicity tactic it seems to be…

    • Mobilink customers are hard to find? Lol. I’m using Mobilink since 10-12 years and I am still loyal to them.
