other than the difference in free airtime of 3 and 4 months, are their any differences between devices in the 13k and 15k packages.
16200 is from ZTE and 18000 one is from some other company. I got a call from my OSS today to come and exchange my device for the 18000 one because they're apparently getting complaints from users about it losing its LTE coverage (similar problems that I faced before).

That's worrying, i leave on monday and i wanna deal with any issues beforehand so my mom doesn't have to deal with PTCL guys. I faced another issue, i charged the device for almost 4-5 hours but it was never fully charged. Than i took it out and some time later, I went to a friend's place. Around 30 mins later i took it and it wouldn't switch on. Turns out the battery run out. Now i am home and charging it and its stuck on 3G rather the 4G lte its supposed to be on.

did you had to reset your device to get to 4G LTE again once you got stuck on 3g ?

I suggest you go to the OSS and talk about an exchange

yes the battery are crap ---i am taking it to local market to find a replacement - i believe a nokia type battery should do the job or some thing similar
coz it has issues of discharging very quickly

i dnt usualy rage but my god ptcl employees are the most incompetent useless bastards on the planet no kidding . ive been banging my head on the wall about this port opening bullshit i called 1218 a hunder times and 99 percent of the time they have no clue what port forwarding is and keep forcing me to go to oss

So in my utter hopelessness i went to the one stop shop in jinnah super and saw this 40+ year old female employee asking me how can she help, i wasted about 10 minutes trying to eplain her that i want some ports to be open and what ports are and they are not opening and the lady replied

HUMARA KAAM HAI AAP KO INTERNET CHALA KAY DAINA WO CHAL RAHA HAI IS KAY BAAD HUMARI KOI ZIMIDARI NAI AAP KI DEVICE HAI INTERNET CHAL RAHA HAI BAKI JO CHEEZ AAP KO KARNI HAI AP KHUD KAREIN

i mean how can a company as big as ptcl hire these kind of people

They wont exchange it. For mine they did a "game" and transferred my old device to the name of one of their OSS employees and applied for a refund in his name while I payed 1750 rupees and got a brand new device in my name. All this was done after I talked to the OSS manager.
I don't know about you guys but in my recent case I would rate PTCL's (or at least OSS MRD's) customer service 10/10

Well my OSS sure as heck wont do the same for me, i am gonna apply for refund on monday.
Try telling them my story and tell them OSS mrd got 2 of these devices back with the same issue and its a device issue. I wonder if its happening to @TheAvenger as well or is the issue limited to khi devices only

If I go to buy this soon, are there different types of devices for the Rev B Fallback? I mean like different brands, Huwaei or ZTE or some other Chinese crap.
If so, which is the best so far?
OSS isn't near my house and I can't be bothered to apply for a refund if my device goes bust.

Buy the Rev B device with 4 months airtime. Its a device from BandRich which is a Taiwanese company so no Chinese crap. The ZTE device is shit

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
