PTCL broadband internet DSL service

I want to share my personal experience of PTCL’s so called “Broadband Internet Service”, how they are treating its customers. I am using ptcl’s DSL (256K) at my home for last two months. In the early days it worked fine but now a days it really sucks. If I calculate its average uptime, it will be maximum 10 hours a day & they are charging me for 24 hours.Problems I am facing are:
- Disconnect after every 10-30 minutes
- DSL is synced but IP is not assigning
- DSL is synced, IP is assigned to my computer but internet is not working
- Their customer service sucks. I complained many time about these problems, nobody even contacted me.
I talked to their CSR and asked to cancel the DSL service. She told me that you have to goto PTCL’s main office with all the equipments (router etc.) and recent paid telephone bill, so stupid process.
Interesting thing is, my DSL is not syncing while I am writing this review ![]()
By the way a good Dial up is much better than PTCL’s DSL service because at least you can continue your online work/assignments. You can change the ISP instantly if you are facing problems but in case of DSL it is a nightmare to change the DSL provider in Pakistan.

We have DSL internet service from ptcl on our two phone lines. We are paying for 2MB of speed for both connections. We do have internet access on both lines but somehow the speed is too slow that our VPN keep disconnecting every 10 mintues and stays off for a while. When call to technical support, that said, everything is fine. Its too hard to narrow down the problem. The question is:
* Is there any PTCL DSL which offers guaranteed speed i.e 1MB or 2MB
* Is there any PTCL wireless service which offers guaranteed connection
* Is there any PTCL service which offeres guaranteed speed without interupptions and without sharing speed
I hope to hear from someone in Zardari's country. Please reply me at

PTCL provides such a stupid service. I would like to throw the modem into a grave and not to take out anymore. If the PTCL cannot provide the best service, so then why they started this service. I hate DSL so much….!!!!!
