We’ve added another city!

Posted by: Connect2Pk In: News & Events

Great news! We’ve just added another city to our list. Our team has been evaluating different cities but due to unavailability of local numbers, we’ve added 1 city of USA. Yes, we’re trying out Houston (USA) as it’s very cheap for Pakistani users to dial any USA number specially from their cellphones. We have tested phone calls from different telecom networks using prepaid connections today and have observed the following rates (inclusive of taxes):

  • Mobilink Rs. 2.81/min
  • Telenor Rs. 2.37/min
  • Ufone Rs. 2.63/min
  • Warid Rs. 2.21/min

Also, PTCL/V-PTCL rates would sum up to Rs. 2.32/min with tax (as per the tariff of PTCL)

Please note that all existing and new users can avail our new number and users talking to Middle-East/Europe region can get more benefit from it. We’ll be waiting for your feedback on this addition and we hope to bring you even better options for great calling.

Happy talking!

Note: Ufone users might face connectivity issues at our Houston number. Our team is working on it and all Ufone users would be able to dial Houston number from Tuesday, November 10, 2009.

Walaykumussalam! We are facing some problem on our ISB number and we are hoping that it’ll be restored within this week. As far as Houston number is concerned, you can receive calls on SIP just like you used to do it before. For further queries, please contact us using HelpDesk: http://www.connect2pk.com/helpdesk/

Happy hour can be availed from any number (land-line or cellphone). All users can avail it during 4am to 10am as our system will automatically disconnect call after 45min during happy hour!

I have tried in time 4am to 10am, from warid number, they charge me that call per minute and +/- 3 rupees/min, if its happy hour time then why it is not a one call, why it is per minute charging to me, is there any subscription required for happy hour.

You’re confusing Warid packages with Connect2Pk. Our call packages reflect only call duration where as you’ll be charged per min as per the tariff of Warid. Connect2Pk does not charge anything to its users!
