They are :angel:

Telenor did a Zong to me today. I was using Telenor Djuice weekly offer of Rs. 100. I used to check resources, balance and validity date on My Telenor app. And I was renewing my offer continuously on last date of validity and had around 16 GB data in resources.

In current update (released on 1st Oct) they changed validity presentation without informing users. Validity of my offer was showing as 8th october and I needed to renew my offer today. And when I renewed my offer today morning, in My App only current offer was showing and all old data was disappeared. Upon inquiry Telenor representative told me that my validity date was 7th october. When I told him that my validity in My Telenor app was showing as 8th october. He replied that 8th october was mean 11:59 PM of 7th october. I said if it was like that why were you guys were even mentioning 8th of october. There was no need for that. Just write 7th october midnight. And he was like "sir its company policy to mention validity like this".

Their validity on My Telenor app is still contracting with their *999# validity. And I have lost 16 GB due to this. Check below

The English of many of these "policy guys" is horrendous - I'm not surprised this is happening with you, because these kinds of inconsistencies are all over the country (and not just with telcos). The SMS screenshot says "midnight on 14 October" - that means when the clock strikes 12 AM on 14th, that's when it expires - but the app says 15th - which is one minute before the midnight of 15th October, as per the call center agent... I am not surprised. These guys need a lesson in English.

Heck, even though Telenor's website is generally much better than the other operators' websites, their English is still horrendous in places.

No. I always get 30 Mbps at D Ground area in Faisalabad. Elsewhere it remains around 10 mbps

I've noticed Mobilink gives me 8-12 Mbps on average. It's been ages since I last used Zong, but I think they, too, gave similar speeds when you're not standing in front of the tower - so this basically means nobody's giving you better speeds in normal conditions (but somebody else will have to chime in for Zong). Telenor's 4G coverage in Islamabad/Rawalpindi is horrible (despite having their HQ here).
[MENTION=11094]StrikerX[/MENTION] - in theory, they are trying to reduce your reliance on 345 (as in, use the app to subscribe to offers etc.), but the PTA stats seem to indicate otherwise haha.

Haha but still that's their intention They're overall as a company trying to go full digital and lean. Telenor 4G is only good in F11

I'll give them credit where it's due - and it's generally due. GENERALLY - until my internet stops working for whatever reason. At least their calls go through.

I suppose the fact that they have a LOT of 3G towers means you get fairly decent speeds in most places but the speeds drop in places. There are still several places where they have coverage holes though.

[MENTION=63376]shaheerk[/MENTION] having bad english is another thing but mentioning same thing differently on different mediums is blunder.

And another worst thing about telenor is one can not renew short codes subscribed offer on App and App's offer via short code. A parallel offer will be subscribed instead of renewal of old offer. This is another blunder of Telenor. And I believe Telenor management is bunch of incapable A$$ holes who are even willing to learn.

And Telenor 4G coverage is Faisalabad is nothing different. Only available at posh areas with less or mediocre population. At Masa areas of the city 4G is still a dream.

I agree. This is how they make money.

I remember Zong does the same thing - you cannot stack up offers together, but instead, have these running in parallel. Not all companies allow you to stack them, and some may change the policy midway. You may not like it, but you don't have a choice.

And Telenor 4G coverage is Faisalabad is nothing different. Only available at posh areas with less or mediocre population. At Masa areas of the city 4G is still a dream.

4G licenses come with stipulations - and they have to cover 90% of the country (or something like that) in 4 years. Tick tock, Telenor - two years are up, and babies have begun to walk already!

.::The Official 3G/4G LTE Thread::. VoLTE incoming

Okay a few days ago I posted about Jazz signals outage. Turns out, it wasn’t without purpose.

3G signals have started appearing in areas where I would get 1 bar of 2G. Almost not usable and I had to go out to get usable service.

Now, the signal strength is almost full with good 3G speeds indoors.

Spoiler: show

No signs of 4G LTE.

And, back to the uncrowned king Ufone
