The President, National Association of Telecommunications Subscribers (NATCOMS), Chief Deolu Ogunbanjo, has decried the persistent poor services of\u00a0\u00a0GSM operators in spite of fines imposed on them by the NCC.<\/p>\n
Ogunbanjo told\u00a0\u00a0 newsmen on Tuesday in Lagos that the fines imposed on them should have forced them to improve on their services.<\/p>\n
He expressed regret that the poor quality of services of the GSM operators had continued in spite of the N1.17 billion fines imposed on them.<\/p>\n
He said that the poor services had prevented many subscribers from enjoying value for their money on calls and data services.<\/p>\n
According to him, inconsistent billings, poor call completion rates and failure to load airtime were some of the challenges being faced by subscribers.<\/p>\n
The NATCOMS president said that the operators were introducing new products and selling new SIM cards daily without expanding their facilities.<\/p>\n
He urged the operators to expand their facilities to meet the growing numbers of subscribers.<\/p>\n
Ogunbanjo said that the current situation whereby operators continuously debited subscribers in the name of promo against subscribers\u2019 interest was worrisome.<\/p>\n
\u201cSubscribers should be watchful and make appropriate investigation before accepting any promo offer from the operators.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is worrisome that the operators lack the capacity to cope with the increasing traffic generated by subscribers,\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
Ogunbanjo urged the regulator to create conducive environment for the operators and provide security of their facilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
