Nope. Cunts refuse to admit this is happening. Keep asking for me to send them their SIM number, so they can get in touch. No one does.

Stopped caring. Won't be renewing my package

Any updates from Zong yet regarding this bullshit?
they called me back. I told them clearly that you are throttling it and I have ways to bypass it. They just gave a generic answer that depends on your connection to particular servers etc etc. So yea they wont admit.

unfortunately for me I have no other option than zong, warid has slowed down too much for me. VPNs are working so will stick to that.

That's sad to hear.. maybe they are having internet issues? I'm getting full torrent bandwidth across the board with zero issues :dance:

after the throttling stopped for me I have even higher speeds. Topped out at 2.97MB/s download, before would be around 1.5-1.8 max. Im not complaining anymore :). But hope it resolved for you and remains resolved for all.

Humm
I may not have used correct unit here what i mean was 1.8 to 2 mbps over 3g

Its a shared 3g connection like ptcl evo
Upto 2mbps at peak time is a fair deal .

I called the service center

He says as far as he was informed , the Corporate customers with post paid accounts have torrents throttled

ill check and update , just got the device so far the peak iv gotten is 850kb/s on normal downloads

UPDATE : i am getting a steady 630-750kb/s On 3g mode full signals for Torrents , 4g isnt on due to location of the device

GOD DAM , 50gb isnt nearly enough for me : P 100gb might be bearable

I can now confirm after days of testing that at its best the Zong 4g mmb device has given me a max of 2.3mb/s torrents , No throttling what so ever

I am quite happy with the device except in 4 days iv used up 20% of my 50gb plan , 100gb is a bare minimum lmfao but too expensive
