DHAKA, May 7, 2024 (BSS) - Banglalink is set to elevate connectivity in Bangladesh by phasing out 3G services and enhancing 4G quality and speed through the reallocation of network resources.

A Banglalink media release today said on May 5 Banglalink became the first mobile network operator in the country to phase out 3G services nationwide.

This move underscores the company's dedication to ensuring 4G for all and reinforces digitalization across the country, it added.

Erik Aas, CEO of Banglalink, said, "As a Digital Operator, our goal is to deliver seamless connectivity and innovative services to our customers."

"By reallocating more resources to 4G, we will take the customer experience to new heights," he added.
