Warid Telecom Jumping into 4G

It was recently revealed that Pakistan has sold 3G and 4G licences to different telecom companies that are operating within the country. Besides Warid Telecom, all the other telecom companies were able to get their hands on a license.

The first 4G license was given to Zong, who were the underdogs in the bidding. They also managed to get a 3G license as they were making a bid for it.

Other companies who have a 3G license include the likes of Telenor, Ufone and Mobilink. These companies have received their licenses and they are going to be launching the 3G connections as soon as one month; since PTA has ordered that all the companies have to launch this service within a span of one month.

With each and every company operating within Pakistan having at least a 3G license, there were several Warid users who weren’t happy with the decision of the company. Warid wasn’t even part of the bidding and the users were unhappy about how they will have to switch to a different network in order to enjoy 3G or 4G service.

Now, however, the tides have turned. Warid has managed to come out with an absolutely different game plan. The company is planning to buy a 4G license in order to surprise its customers.
