Poor cellular coverage irks customers on Eid

ISLAMABAD - On account of poor network coverage on the part of cellular companies, people faced immense problems on the eve of Eid and the days that follow. Over charging, poor signals, over burdened networks, and frequent call droppings were reported from all over the country.

TheNation has observed that soon after the announcement of Eid, all the cellular networks were jammed and people  tried for hours to congratulate their loved ones but to no avail.

Mobile users complained that while they were trying to call their dear ones on chand raat and on Eid Day, they could not get their call through due to poor  network but their balances were deducted. “I tried to call my family living in Narrowal on Eid Day, but couldn’t get connected and lost almost Rs 50 in the process even without making a single call “, lamented Iqbal Ilyas who celebrated the Eid away from his family in the Capital.
