Attention: Telephone authorities
Let me take the pleasure of thanking Ms Mahbuba Jannat for her write up in The Daily Star on March 22, 2006 entitled "Ghostly phone bills in Badda". God alone knows haw many T&T subscribers are suffering because of T&T mismanagement. Why cannot the organisation control the unscrupulous linemen? Similar incidents had taken place with my telephone (I don't want to disclose the number, lest the line goes off for good). I was away for about a month and the telephone was not used at all but at the end of the month I received a telephone bill of Tk 530.00. I am lucky the bill was not in thousands. Currently, the telephone has a noise without a dial tone. I can neither receive calls nor make calls. Interestingly, it occurs from the last working hours of every Thursday and without any complaint the dial tone is restored on Sunday morning. My telephone is locked with 01 code barring all outgoing calls. I am waiting for the monthly bill.
It is for certain my fortune will be no better than those unfortunate subscribers of Badda area. Will the telephone authorities kindly see what is going wrong?
