PTCL is heavily bombarding its EVO and DSL customer with Pop-up ads being inserted into the websites. PTCL users complained that they were left with no choice but to bear forced pop-up ads by the service providers.

PTCL bombards pop-up ads, is immensely criticized by customers.

Particularly this is not for website, they have been doing it every website we open on the network. PTCL has already been found involved in these activities which are illegal and unnecessary and frustrate consumers.

“PTCL is stealing web-properties by criminally injecting its own ads — on websites that they don’t own — for a paid broadband service. This not only hurts customers’ experience but also costs web-publishers in lost revenue, bad experience and higher bounce rates” expressed a digital publisher. “PTCL could be sued for this, if it was any country except Pakistan”, he added.

Also it has been reported that some pop-ads do not come with close button leaving consumer with no choice which further infuriates customer.
