Don't know if other Worldcall users are facing the same thing but I can barely even get a video to stream at 144p let alone 720p. Other video websites work fine. o_O

Been facing this issue for the last month or so. You guys as well or just me?

Worldcall has officially gone to the dogs. RIP. The amount of anger and hate I have inside me for this company is inexplicable. I hope you know what I am talking about.

Try using some VPN like zenmate for chrome.

@shak92 can you please confirm at your end?
I use Netflix on Worldcall sometimes and it works fine.

Regarding Worldcall problems, it is indeed a dying company. Their guy told me they lost about 500 million rs worth of equipment in a fire few moinths ago, and are not even providing new connections.

Last week my home connection went down for 2 days, sent a guy to their office in garden town and was told their electricity was cut due to non payment of bill.0

I'm going to switch to stormfiber as backup Internet soonish.

Please check if youtube videos are being throttled on WC, whenever you're free.

Thanks for replying everyone. I appreciate the feedback.

Yeah honestly I am so done with WorldCall. I know that company has been in a loss for a while. Don't expect it to be bouncing back anytime soon. If any one of you guys is familiar with the finance industry, you'll know that it has been sold to Dunya (as mentioned above) at a cheap rate. Judging by the current state of the service, customer support and overall satisfaction level, Dunya will be running this company with an absolute bare minimum of resources to turn the company around again. That means layoffs (even shittier customer support and technician support) and terrible bandwidth (another cost cutting measure)

I can't believe this, its 2016 and we still don't have decent, reliable internet? I mean there is huge demand for this here and people are willing to pay as well.

I heard storm fiber is coming to my neighbourhood. I did call them but they said services will take uptill April to be activated where I live. can't come soon enough!!!

Anyways guys, any alternative internet options you guys can suggest in Clifton Karachi?

    The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol

    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
