One of our community regulars had a very interesting observation to share in a recent comment:

One interesting thing happened yesterday. I received a phone call from wateen rep telling me that since i registered at their website a while back so i qualify for Rs 3000 discount on WiMax package. I told that lady that I live in DHA and am interested in triple play service. She told me that this triple play service will be closed down in future and only WiMax service will be available from Wateen. Well it sure was a shocker for me and I asked her again about this and asked how come wateen spent so much money laying cables and stuff if this service is not going to be continued in future!!! Well she didnt gave me a clear cut reply but again reiterated that only WiMax will be available.
My personal take is that since she was only sale rep who didn’t knew much about operations. Any one else had this experience??

Was this just a cheap sales tactic (like bank personal loan sales guys use) or some admission by Wateen that triple-play wouldn’t be able to give them adequate ROI or scale.

If anyone can shed some more information – please let us know.
