TALenor is installing cheapest equipment which is ZTE, how we expect quality from TALenor
nice comment abt zte, i work in zte…. well if its cheap, we should make our own equipment… no need for the cheeper companies … isnt it????
hahaha
but we guys vote for zardari , how can we make such sophisticated equipment :P
and yes – we were sold by our great leaders to USA at 1Billion USD , whereas ZTE won just one project 800M USD worth , and its not a huge project by zte standards
Dudes, more customers dont mean more revenue pre user, you know as per revenue its Telenor at top then Warid and then Mobilink and then Ufone and then Zong.
Akal lagaooooo mera watan ke no jawanooo.
If Operator A have 10 users with revenue per user of PKR 5K, its total revenue would be PKR 50K. If Operator B has 100 users with revenue per user of PKR 4K, its total revenue would be PKR 400K. So although revenue per user of Operator 1 is 20% higher than Operator 2, Total revenues of Operator 2 are 88% higher than operator 1.
Conclusion: Revenue per user is a meaningless figure without complete picture. i.e. Number of subscribers, OPEX, CAPEX, Net Profit etc.
Telenor lost its biggest three corporate accounts and two won by Warid and one by Zong.
Why?
Quality does matter.
Price (value for money).
Also Warid is still biggest post paid subscriber base and it active customer criteria is 90days activity.
All others having 365 days activity. Jagoo logo.
Active customer Criteria for quoting figures to PTA is same across all operators (i.e. Subscribers who performed any activity during last 90 days). I am not arguing that all operators quotes 100% correct figures. Its just that the criteria is same.
And if we accept that industry is quoting inflated figures, Warid is on top of that list. :)
TELENOR waley tu hain hi jhootey india main bhi fraud kia tha inka lisnce cancel hoa tha yahan bhi jhoot boltey hain.aur ads main awaam ko lectures detey hain ta k in ka asal chehra samney nahi ai.aur ab tu mobilink bhi in ka paas aa raha hai ye us ka bhi yahi haal karey gay.
Well, I did some research.
According to Wikipedia the current (2011estd.) population of Pakistan is just above 187 million.(let it be 187.5 million)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Pakistan
And; if you have a look at age structure that indicates that 59.1 % of total pop is 15-64 years (Let`s take these 59.1 % as Cellular subscribers)
So, 59.1 % of 187.5 Million is = 111 Million approx.
And the Cellular Subscribers according to the this post are 116.2 Million.
The Difference is 5.2 Million
So, we can conclude that every 5th person is using more than a single Network to meet its communications need.
i don;t care anyway how zong has more customers than warid……..because zong is giving free sims every where .From last two months i see a van standing and distributing sims but remember quality quality matters and no one can pass warid in terms of quality (i have used all the networks)
yes u r right sarmad, mobilink aur telenor sirf aur sirf apnay marketing ki waja se agay hain.itnay paisey advertising main phektay hain tu customer tu baney gay.
companies jo ikathay mil ker charges laganay ka faisla karti hain agar is say PTA inko hata lay to hamain mazid muqablay ke faza dekhnay ko milay ge.
@Admin is it possible for you to segregate pre-paid / postpaid subscriber per cellular network?
Also, is it possible to post revenue reports of subscribers to know who is getting highest revenue per user?
yeah, post this admin! especially revenue reports of subscribers
In post paid Warid and Mobilink are equal .5million (may be a difference 500)
Than Ufone
4. Telenor
5. Zong
yes ur right
I have Zong and since last 2 months having very serious issues always “Network Busy” OR my no. is OFF.
I multiple times talk with complain department but my issue is still here.
I am now thinking to MNP and this is the only solution.
Well come to Warid family, and feel the difference
half of that postpaid base of W@rid is blocked
yes before it was above million
One of organization in Lahore using Telenor with calling trend
1. Warid
2. Mobilink
3. Ufone
4. Telenor
5. PTCL
6. Zong
So what about market share PTA stats are all fake as Mobilink is best in quality all crap data of PTA
Dear every operator has its strengths. Lahore is strength of Warid like rural areas are strength of Telenor. So you cant generalize this calling trend to whole Pakistan.
Also karachi have warid at second number.
jis tarah har bnday k paas 3 3 cell fones han yahan par uss hisaab sy hmari abaadi sy ziada hojay ge ye tadaad!!!!!!!!!!
Fake data as Warid subscribers are increasing rapidly day by day.
Does not matter if telenor is at top or mobilink, telenor holds 18% rights in mobilink and hence shares the revenue as well. Hence telenor is at the top and the best. The most professional operator that keeps the needs of its customers in mind. Long love Telenor !!
mobilink is the best
nice comment abt zte, i work in zte…. well if its cheap, we should make our own equipment… no need for the cheeper companies … isnt it????
hahaha
but we guys vote for zardari , how can we make such sophisticated equipment :P
