HUNZA-NAGAR, Nov 14: Telephone subscribers here have complained that the Special Communication Organisation (SCO) has issued them highly inflated bills.

Talking to this correspondent, they said their bills contained cellphone numbers of Khyber Agency, Multan, Lahore, Karachi and other cities which they had never dialed. They said most of the telephones were code-locked and cannot be dialed by anyone else.

One of the complainants accused the SCO employees of making calls from customers’ lines.

When contacted, an official at the billing section of SCO exchange at Karimabad, however, said there was no fault in their billing system. He also rejected the allegation that SCO employees were misusing the customers’ lines. Also at DAWN
