The National Association of Telecommunications Subscribers (NATCOMS) on Tuesday urged service providers to upgrade their networks to accommodate higher volume of calls during the Yuletide and New Year.<\/p>\n
NATCOMS President, Chief Deolu Ogunbanjo, made the plea on Tuesday in Lagos during an interview with newsmen.<\/p>\n
He said that the operators should be aware of the normal higher volume of traffic on their networks during these periods.<\/p>\n
Ogunbanjo said that upgrading their systems would enable subscribers to get value for their money made on calls and data services.<\/p>\n
He promised that the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) would review the sanctions imposed on them if they improved on their services during the festivities.<\/p>\n
\u201cOperators should move from consumer service delivery to consumer satisfaction. Though, we have not got there, but perhaps we will still get there.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the time we should be asking for freebies after subscribers have patronised their services from January till December.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only benefit from the operators is for them to give subscribers better quality of service.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are fully in support of the decision of the NCC banning promotions and lotteries,\u201d Ogunbanjo said.<\/p>\n
He said that the Universal Service Provision Fund (USPF) should be used to intervene in the provision of infrastructure to improve service delivery in the sector.<\/p>\n
\u201cTelecommunications sector is one of the highest producers of jobs in Nigeria today, therefore the Federal Government should invest in the provision necessary infrastructure required to boast the sector,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
