Mobile Network Operators to Offer Phones in Installments

Metropolis Desk-

Mobile network operators are now permitted to offer phones to customers who purchase connections in installments, thanks to approval from the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC). 

The phone must contain at least two SIM slots, one of which must belong to the operator that is selling the phone and the remaining slots must be available for customers to use SIM cards from any operator. 

Customers will need to make a 20%–40% down payment, with payments spread out over 3–12 months. Operators will be able to enter into agreements with mobile manufacturers to provide their customers with such phones. Customers are unable to move operators without paying the smartphone’s cost.

A technical limitation known as a SIM lock or network lock is one that mobile phone makers incorporate to limit the operation of the devices in particular regions or networks. 

Operators in Bangladesh have long desired to work with manufacturers to subsidize the sale of 4G-capable handsets. Device locking is anticipated to increase Bangladesh’s total mobile phone penetration rate and give handset vendors and service providers more opportunities to expand their customer bases. 

The third-largest operator, Banglalink, raised concern, claiming that the considerable sum of money made accessible to operators would draw in more clients. The action is anticipated to narrow the digital divide in the nation and hasten the transition to a “Smart Bangladesh.”
