Comments on: Highest tele-density? Good enough! What about QoS? http://itinsight.info/editor/2008/05/highest-tele-density-good-enough-what-about-qos/ Leading IT & Telecommunications News Portal Fri, 21 Nov 2008 12:17:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Kamran http://itinsight.info/editor/2008/05/highest-tele-density-good-enough-what-about-qos/#comment-13 Kamran Wed, 11 Jun 2008 09:02:16 +0000 http://itinsight.info/editor/?p=9#comment-13 I would like to even question the highest tele-density claim. As cost of a new mobile connection is 100Rs on average, there are many people holding multiple SIMs. I think the real tele-density is atleast 15% less than these claims. PTA holds the credit of so many SIM cards roaming on streets, makets and shops etc. There should have been a check and balance and strict documentation should have been implemented in order to ensure proper usage of these mobile connections. As far as Quality of Service (QoS) is concerned, it is being improved day by day. I am a Telenor subscriber and very happy with their service. As I don't live in a rural area, so I don't know about their QoS there. Broadband QoS is not so good and there are downtimes which teases me a lot.

Last month, I was in a rural area of Jhang (Punjab) and many of my calls got disconnected just because of low QoS. Now where should I go to claim my losses?
