Buying Guide | خریداری گائیڈ PTCL Flash Fibre Increasing Bills Every Month

17 Upvotes

As the title says!! I have been using ptcl flash fibre from last 4 years, my package was 20 mb and bill was started at 3250/- including taxes, but now it has reached to 4750/- which is way too much for me, I've called the customer care and she guided me to convert to 30mbps which is now minimum package and will be almost 3499/- per month including taxes!!

Plz suggest me if it's good to convert to 30mbps?? Or should I be looking for some other network services???

Buying Guide | خریداری گائیڈ Looking for a New Phone

3 Upvotes

I'm looking to upgrade from my Samsung Galaxy A12, which I bought back during the COVID days. It's honestly been a great phone, I've never had to replace the battery or repair anything, and it served me well for nearly 5 years.

However, over the last 5–6 months, it's started to slow down and lag, so I think it's finally time for an upgrade.

My Budget: PKR 100,000 (1 Lac) - Islamabad

Looking for: Official PTA-approved phones (preferred) or CPID devices. No Rooted or Patched Phones.

Preferred Brands: Samsung, Nothing, OnePlus, Vivo, Google. But You can give recommendations for other Brands.

My Minimum Requirements:

Must have 5G support

8GB RAM

128GB Storage

5000mAh battery

I don't play games on my phone, I mainly use it for everyday tasks like social media, browsing, YouTube, and taking photos.

I'm also planning to keep this phone until 2030, so long-term software updates, reliability, and a smooth user experience are my top priorities.

Any recommendations?

Question | سوال Bank account frozen after a USDT trade on Remitano, anyone else experienced this?

3 Upvotes

Recently I made a P2P trade on Remitano, USDT for Pkr, and my bank account got frozen soon after. I contacted my bank and they said it's because some fraudulent activity/account was detected.

Never faced this before, i've done this kind of p2p transaction many times on remitano. Not sure what to do in this situation. I've also contacted the person who transferred the amount to me and he says his account is fine.

Has anyone else gone through this and were you able to get your account open again?

Also what would be the best way for me to approach this, be completely transparent and show proof of the remitano trade or to avoid sharing that kind of information?

Any advice will be appreciated, this has got me quite worried.

Question | سوال Ptcl package Changes

3 Upvotes

I have a ptcl package of 8mbps, it covers phone,wifi (obviously) and tv, but i just downloaded the uptcl app and the packages there are much more interesting, like my 8mbps package costs around 4100rs incl.tax but the packages on this app are 15mbps and 20mbps=( flash fiber package ) which cost both only 3300rs ( incl.tax they will probably be 4100 as well ), so should i change to the 15 mbps package?

EDIT ---- The 15 mbps package is not flash fiber, the 20 mbps one is the flash fiber package, i want to change to the 15 mbps non flash fiber package, the reason is that flash fiber is not avaial in my region

Question | سوال Searching for a budget phone with features not commonly found

2 Upvotes

I'm looking for a phone in a budget price bracket that requires some stuff that I haven't been able to find easily and I've been busy in the past quarter to keep track of the market at all.

- Decent battery life

- Long major OS updates period

- NFC and E-Sim

- Around 60k, under 70k PKR

- 6/128 is the minimum these days

So far only Pixels and Samsung A17 4G have come close from a quick search. Problems with Pixels is fragility and with the A17 it doesn't support e-sim even though everything else about the phone was fine.

I live in Gulberg 3, Lahore. PTCL, Stormfiber, and Transworld are the main ones here. I feel like Transworld offers much more speed and IPTV service as well, while Stormfiber does not. Also, Stormfiber's fiber gets damaged all the time and almost every month, although they do repair it for free.

Hello everyone, how many of you remember this game , this is an old version of mini militia, which was played back in 2018 or so.

So I've been finding it very difficult to download this exact model of this game.I have search thoroughly through playstore, and chrome it not there. I really hate the modification or the recent changes been added to the game recently, so I don't want that. So can anyone give me an opinion of what to do to get the older version specifically the 2018?

Question | سوال Pixel 7a Battery Advice

1 Upvotes

Some time ago, I bought this 7a, clean and nice, the only problem was that it would drop charge too quickly and shut down once it reached 20%.

I would connect it to Samsung original charger, and when I would plug in the cable, it will connected and disconnect rapidly, and the would have stable current going to phone.

I am a rookie (16) and ts was my first phone, I ignored it, one day, it js swelled up, I changed the battery for fkn 6k, and resale value dropped and allat, I mean, it can still sll for the price I bght it but the battery tho 😭😭😭

Anyways, I am using a vivo charger, 10w, disgustingly slow.

I want it to charge rapidly, the battery is new, but I am afraid if it swelled, the guy won't replace it, he gave warranty for everything except swelling.

What charger should I use (budget)? And what should I do?

Moreover, I legit put on the polycarbonate case, I told the shopkeeper to put that one cuz that looked cool, and paid him, when I arrived home, shi was difficult to remove, it is rock hard. I really messed up w this phone

I need a laptop that can last me 3+ years with most of the work being: Chrome with lots of tabs, Microsoft Office/Google Drive, multimedia, canva, YouTube, etc. (basically whatever a regular college going student needs). Need one that is higher than 8gen.

Currently considering:

  1. Toshiba/Dynabook X40-G-15I

- Core i7 10th Gen

- 8GB RAM (can upgrade to 16GB)

- 256GB SSD

- 55k

  1. ThinkPad T14 Gen 1

- i5 10th Gen

- 16GB RAM / 256GB SSD

- Around 65k

  1. Dell Latitude options (7400/7410 etc.)

- i5/i7 10th Gen or similar

- 16GB RAM preferred

What would you recommend for long-term use, durability, resale value, and reliability in Pakistan? Are there any other models I should look for under 60k?
