Totally fake figures, saying this from my own experience of not only one complaint but several complaints and their processing. If any one wants proof I can provide.
PTA is a regulator, but it only plays a role of post office between complainant and the operators, just rely messages of eachother dumbly, instead of giving PTAs own opinion intelligently about who is right or wrong the customer or operator.
Dear ufone mery ghar my six ufone users hy. Likin us my sy three number per bat nahi hote. Call receive kerny ky bad balance use hota hy lekin bat nahi hote.
What about the tax the have imposed in imran govt.??? Tax is too high not rational. Is it not to be addressed?? Reasonable tax can be and will paid, but i think no one can pay this type of butcher tax .
It is a shame on writer who has no back ground of how the article is written. You singled out a company but decided to not name others instead wrote others and CMOs. This is legally wrong and should be taken up in court of law to malign one name against others.
I am sure that most of customer was complaining for slow internet but issue still the same as mine
PtA taxes are too high.. Why you imposed this type of taxes. That’s not fair with us. Please cancel this taxes. They are too much.. Not every person can pay this
