Agreed mine is expiring on 17 September let's see what happen next.And by the way its a really letdown thing that they have this type of customer support unlike their speeds r way awesome till now

Just a couple of days before your package is going to expire, call 310 and tell them that you want to continue with your package or change it. This call is recorded. Then go to Franchise and make payment. Exact payment nothing extra. As soon as you recharge a confirmation SMS will land on your master mobile number.

No need to take your device there. Just SIM number of device is sufficient.

Well I called them today and that when my 100gb ends it will automatically go to the next 100 as well.
And then next month when my package expires I will get the same allotment again. Lets see if it works out as they say

Another solution to this mess could be to switch of Mobile Data on your devices when the package expires.
Recharge, resubscribe and then switch data on again.

So did my first actual download today on Zong Mifi apart from streaming and random apps. iOS 8.4.1 - 1.67 GB. Usually takes about 2+ hours.
Today completed in exactly 30 mins. No clue about what DL speed I was getting as it doesn't show in iTunes.

I paid my bill 3 days before my expiry date, when your date of current package expires, automatically it renewed my package again for the month. No extra charges!

Any idea if Warid is planning on launching VoLTE soon?
I'm asking because just yesterday I was standing in the parking lot of a shop in Bahria Town and I called my friend, now usually when I do this, the 4G icon changes to E (2G) in the status bar, however when I called him, it stayed on 4G, but the signal bars went from 4 bars to 1 bar and a few rings went through and the call dropped itself.
The next time I called (2 mins after), it changed to EDGE.
Could this be a glitch or are they testing VoLTE?

Does anyone have any idea how much speed i'll get on telenor 3g in gujranwala? Deciding to leave mobilink as its speeds hardly go above 150 KB/S and if they do, they dont stay there for long....

iNCEPTiON (iNCEPTiON) 2015-08-30 11:38:55 +0500 #2750

Nope ..I doubt it dude as Warid or any other operator cannot launch VoLTE .. not so soon though ...

Zong is cat4 LTE and warid is cat3 LTE ,technically zong is way ahead.When am on call my LTE changes to 3G. .. Even indians are on cat3(airtel et) [emoji5]️..
In a terms of data speed, there are two important terms to know here: CAT4 (Category 4) and CAT6 (Category 6). Devices that support CAT4 speeds can reach a theoretical speed of 150Mbps, while devices that support CAT6 speeds can reach a theoretical speed of 300Mbps. In the real world, those speeds are considerably slower, but you still get much faster data from having a device and network that support CAT6 speeds. voLTE maybe worke flawlessly on cat6.Abhi to bhai time lagaye ga

well since warid sold its wimax sector over to Qubee I have lost all faith in them

iNCEPTiON (iNCEPTiON) 2015-08-30 16:35:44 +0500 #2754

Coz it's advance technology dude.. we have just got 3G and 4G .. it's long way to go ... we should have devices that support VoLTE as well

^its not that long way to go .. People used to dream about LTE too in Pakistan not so far behind .. VoLTE will come but first let them stabilise themselves.. Its not a rocket science for them.. Can't say abt warid but Zong got the spectrum for it

I would still say a long way. Ufone and mobilink, both some time turn from 3g to edge in main areas of lahore. Still have coverage issues. I was talking to a client in US who was on vacations, in mountains. And he was getting more speed than what i get on my 4 mb ptcl dsl.

Why would you compare with the last and 2nd last companies? I have both ufone and mobilink and they sucks big time.
In my opinion ufone < mobilink < telenor < warid (4g only) < Zong the champ of mbb

MoinIqbal (MoinIqbal) 2015-08-31 06:20:08 +0500 #2758

So one thing to look out for: Zong MBB packages are not for the month. They are for 30 days. I got my device on the 1st and it stopped working today (31st). Was looking forward to downloading 10-15 films before the package was refreshed.

altisdualvvti (altisdualvvti) 2015-08-31 06:35:33 +0500 #2759

All prepaid wireless connections r like this my evo wingle package also expires after 30days so no issues.
