The great Ufone 3G and their consistent (horrible) quality of service. It keeps switching back to E unnecessarily, even in full 3G coverage area.

Which 3G is best for Islamabad?. My main usage on 3G is basic web surfing only and this Ufone turtle 3G cannot even do that. I just want ~1mbps consistent speed.

Please suggest a good network for 3G, because Ufone is driving me nuts!

I have to agree with iNCEPTiON here.
Mobilink actually sucks in pindi, but for Islamabad, it's pretty good. Both in terms of coverage and speed.

For some strange reasons, Ufone 3G shows a lot more annoying pop-up ads. Tried Zong 3G at the same time and did not see any annoying pop-up ads in the same websites!.

Test done on Microsoft Edge browser on Lumia 640XL, with VPNs disconnected.

Can we upgrade 3G evo wingle to chaar ji?

I tried but couldn't possibly due to its hardware not support other 3G or 4g configuration

Zong service quality for 3G and 4G varies from city to city.. they have got serious issues with regards to bandwidth.

Ufone sucks now in term of call quality and 3g

Can anyone suggest the best network i should move to. My main use is 3g/4g

Would have preffered zong but seems like their network is flooded with 4g wingles.

slakr (slakr) 2016-03-30 05:36:41 +0500 #3616

Mobilink is solid .. their 3G is superior to zong 4G

Why does Telenor always rip me off?

I had Telenor few years back (only for few days) and even at that time, it deducted balance for no apparent reasons, and when i questioned the helpline about balance deduction, they confirmed and apologized about system glitch and returned my deducted balance.

Looks like its their usual way of ripping off!

s15 2016-04-02 17:53:16 +0500 #3618

Today i got Telenor after a long time and it happened again.

Activated the 3G monthly starter package from their website which mentioned rs. 200 inclusive of tax. But the actual deduction was rs. 300.

s15 2016-04-02 17:56:45 +0500 #3619

I wonder why is their system as glitchy as windows 10 mobile. It clearly mentioned rs. 200 and it deducted rs. 300 actually

awais.9 (awais Khalid ) 2016-04-02 18:13:37 +0500 #3620
