Ufone has revised its GPRS/EDGE packages for its prepaid customers. Now Ufone users can subscribe for three available packages, depending on their usage to enjoy in-expensive GPRS for their internet needs while on the go.
Procedure is simple, you subscribe to one of three available packages, which will deduct balance from your account according to package and you will be allotted with certain amount of data limit, again according to package. You can use this data with-in a certain time.
The good thing is that you can subscribe again to any package if you use exceed your data limit. By the way, in case your data limit is over, and you are still using GPRS then you will be charged at standard rates, which are Rs. 15 plus tax per 1 MB. So make sure that you have an eye on remaining data limit. To check remaining data package volume & expiry date you can send USSD command to *706# or call 706.
This treat is for prepaid users only, postpaid users, please keep on paying high bills and over charges and keep missing the luxury….!

People in Pakistan are getting aware of the fact that their Mobile number ownership is important, and it must be in their name in order to avoid un-desired problems for any reason. So if you are still using a SIM without registration, make sure that you register it immediately, given that the process is very simple.
Check Current Owner’s name of SIM?
To find out the current owner’s name of the SIM that you are using, simply send a blank SMS to 667. This SMS will return owner’s information with details – So if this is your name, then nothing to worry about, and consider yourself safe. Otherwise get it registered as soon as possible.
How to register a SIM
In order to get Mobile number registered, take your SIM card and original ID card to your nearest franchise or service center, and ask them to register this SIM in your name.
Please remember that you must bring SIM with you as well, because without SIM your number won’t get registered. Continue Reading This Story

Respected Sir
I hope u r fine. I had purchased a SIM card of number 0322 605 2330. I have been repetitively providing all required data to your concerned staff to get my number registered. For the purpose, I gave copy of my ID card and other details from retailer (situated in BC Tower opposite to GC University Faisalabad) and once to your Franchise near Ideal Sweet Gulberg Road Faisalabad, and I believe it was registered to my name.

Through an advertisement published today in “Daily Jang” PTCL has announced free one month broadband internet if applied in December 2008. Same print ad says that PTCL’s free IPTV services are now extended till June 2009 for all new and existing IPTV customers.
To subscribe call: 0800-80800
However, we are not sure about how other broadband internet service providers will respond to this offer. We may see another layer of price war in broadband industry of Pakistan. Also to be noted, few of ISPs increased their broadband tariffs recently - meaning that ISPs may breath high over this move by PTCL.
It is also interesting to learn that all Internet and Telecom packages are sent to PTA first for approval before they get implemented.
As an ending note, PTCL should also enhance its support and after sale services as well for optimum customers’ experiance.

I get countless queries from my readers, who are interested in knowing the address details of cellular numbers. When I tell them, that I really can’t help them out in this, they ask “okay at least tell me from which city this person has been calling”.
So, I am sharing this information for those, who want to know the city of any number. That means, the mobile number was issued in that city, however, it is not necessary that mobile number owner is still staying in the same city from where he/she purchased his/her number.
Go to this website: Click Here
Enter the number you want to check, and press submit…! It will give you back the city name of any mobile number.
Please note that this website supports limited number of codes, check website for more details
