Anyone with a pulse in Pakistan knows that having a bad internet connection can be an ABSOLUTE PAIN.
^ Us every time.
Because of this, people can go a little crazy when letting out their own frustrations. And when you put frustration and social media together, you basically get a ton of entertainment. Being one of the oldest internet network providers, PTCL has always gotten it’s fair share of complaints.
Everything from aggressive aunties with very imaginative minds,
To heartfelt, gut wrenching, Karan Johar worthy romantic love letters.
But PTCL has always been a GREAT sport about it and responded with love…
We are aggressively working on your issue it will be resolved as soon as possible.

Comedy
And sensitivity…
Even though many of these complaints hurt a little bit, you have to admit – they can be pretty fun to read:
1. I mean, at least we wouldn’t need Internet if we were zombies…
Not only PTCL Evo, Ufone 3G is not working properly. What are we going through? Zombie apocalypse?

2. Honestly, how do we know for SURE that they’re not?
PTCL might be making their cables with human flesh.

As much as we all love to hate on PTCL, when it does work, it works. Thankfully, PTCL does have a helpline that is guess what, ACTUALLY helpful. Their new 1218 campaign number is your one stop shop for all complaints, all issues and all worries PTCL. Have an issue, no worries – call ‘Baara Atharaa’ and you’ll never need to angry tweet again! Love you!
