EasyPaisa, a recently launched brand by Telenor and Tameer Bank for paying utility bills from Telenor. Now this Brand has turned out to be in Big trouble, as today LESCO’s (Lahore electric Supply Company) has stated that they have no agreement, understanding with Tameer Bank or the Telenor regarding utility bill payments.
In a press release published in various newspapers in Lahore today, LESCO (Lahore Electricity Supply Company) was of a firm in belief that it has not authorized Tameer Microfinance Bank along with Telenor to collect electricity bills from its customers through Easy Paisa shops.
In another development, Telenor Easy Paisa website has removed LESCO, GEPCO and IESCO from the list of companies to accept utility bills at EP outlests.
Initially list was as following, marked as red are no more in the list (ProPakistani)
1. PTCL (Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited)
2. SSGC (Sui Southern Gas Company)
3. SNGPL (Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Ltd)
4. KESC (Karachi Electric Supply Company)
5. IESCO (Islamabad Electric Supply Company)
6. GEPCO (Gujranwala Electric Power Company)
7. LESCO (Lahore Electric Supply Company)
8. HESCO (Hyderabad Electric Supply Company)New list is available here: http://www.easypaisa.com.pk/products.php
After all this, a general user may wonder that what made Telenor do improper planning and running one of the largest media campaign of millions of rupees, without homework…!
In the end I must say that EP is the good idea and Telenor has to work very hard in order to remove the bugs. Good Luck Telenor!!!
