Bangladesh Telecommunications Company Limited (BTCL) has been consistently losing subscribers in recent years. Many subscribers are surrendering their BTCL land telephones, only two decades ago which was a symbol of social status. In a bid to retain old subscribers and attract new subscribers, state owned telecom company has revised its tariff.
Now subscribers have to pay only 150 taka per month and they can call to any BTCL land phone across the country as many times as they want. But subscribers have to pay 52 paisa per minute for calling to mobile phones.
But many subscribers and telecom experts have said, this latest move by BTCL would not be enough. Today’s users want wireless technology along with television and high speed internet facilities with their land telephone. BTCL officials have told the media that they are working on providing better service and more facilities with BTCL land telephone.
So the bottom line is, from tomorrow you are free to talk with your beloved one via BTCL phone as long as you wish.
