Cheap Edge network

[Brainwaves]

I finally got my iPhone and now i am in search of a good service that can offer a cheap edge plan, i really want an unlimited edge package but dont know if there are any... Any help or info? please share

I would prefer warid as i already have it but dont know about any edge packages

Right now on my post-paid downloading 1 MB costs like 25 Rs :S

Though I am not much in Favor of Mobilink but thats the Only company i know offering Unlimited Internet on Postpaid for Rs. 500 / Month . and in some places, its edge and in some places, its simple Internet.

I am using Telenor and its all the way in Lahore as far as I have used it. But i dont have much Info if they offer Unlimited Access on Postpaid.

None of the companies providing 100% Edge facility, but if you still looking for such service than you can try maybelink for 500rs/month same package is for Warid as well but its for post paid only. Telenor gives you 1.5gb for 1500 or 1000 rs a month, call them for exact pricing, Zong, well i call it Dhong, not sure about their gprs/edge connection charges. Do remember you will get facility only when you are into Edge network apart from that you will swift back to older gprs.

saw an ad of zong when i was last in lahore.. 15rs/hr .. seems like a pretty good deal

I use mobilink in Lahore. 500rs a month, and i get edge pretty much everywhere. Go for it, its the best among the choices, esp for iphone imo.

I use Warid here

Postpaid connection with Rs500 unlimted net - so far i found Edge to be everywhere i went in lahore.

Service is pretty good too, i had issues at first regarding billing but it was taken care of...

Since u actually use and prefer warid then i think there is no need to switch to other networks as that can be a long process (i ported my number from telenor to warid - no wonder i had billing problems)

My current Package is:

Zahi 250 - Rs 250/mo (i barely text and dont make much calls, but mostly recieve them lol)
Unlimited GPRS - Rs 500/mo (eventhough it says gprs, u'd still get Edge)
Slap a Rs50 or so Tax

My monthly bill comes out to be ~ Rs800 - Acceptable for the amount of net i use lol!

Few months ago i got the warid usb edge stick (around 9k total, includes 1 free month of unlimited use, usb stick, and special edge sim card) Its quite impressive as you get net on ur laptop almost anywhere in Pakistan, and the speed, for edge, is pretty damn impressive. For general browsing etc it works just fine, download is around 15-30kbps. Ive used others in the past, none of them can compare to this speed.


Its a bit exspensive, (9k stick plus sim, 500rs a month for unlimited) but I would reccomend this over any other method. You can view it on warids site and buy it from the main warid outlet in Gulberg.
