State-run mobile-phone operator Teletalk is set to provide its Dhaka City consumers with SIM cards having 3G facilities from September after a month-long test run of 3G services starting from Jul 29. Existing consumers will get priority for the SIM cards with 3G facilities, Teletalk Managing Director Mujibur Rahman told bdnews24.com.
Rahman said Teletalk would experimentally launch 3G services on Jul 29 after swapping the network on Jul 17.
He said, "Preparations are over to provide 3G services to over 300,000 subscribers in the capital by September."
On May 25 he had told bdnews24.com they would start providing 3G services in Dhaka City in July.
Asked about the delay in SIM distribution, he replied," Installation of new machinery took some more time as the service is new in the country."
