In all over the world, internet cost varies with each country, depending on different elements like telecommunication costs, taxation, external costs etc. So we have compared the price of internet in Pakistan with other countries in this article.

An average internet cost per month with 10Mbps download speed, unlimited download volume on Cable/DSL is measured to be about $35.81. However, this amount looks to be a big amount, but it is much low amount as compared with most other countries of Europe, Arabic states etc. The most expensive internet cost is of UAE, which is calculated $84.24 on a monthly basis.

Recently government has applied tax on telecommunication industry in Pakistan, as a result internet costs in Pakistan will raised high. Carving up of an area by telecommunication companies is also a reason of high costs. It’s a fact that there will be less or no competition in an area, where only a small number of Internet Service Providers offers their services.

For example, PTCL is big ISP in Pakistan.
Wireless internet 3G and 4G has unlocked new ways of affordable connectivity after its arrival. As these services will improve and spread, internet will become more approachable and cheap for all the people.

Personally speaking Internet service is way too expensive in Pakistan, quality is bad, speed is sluggish….

Meanwhile unlimited internet is available in western countries on fraction of price with better quality and speed.

If you have any problems here the knock few quids off from the next bill but in Pakistan they don't want to know if you have any problem and it is pretty much screw you attitutde.

In UK I am just paying just 19.5 (around Rs. 3200) per month for more than 15 MB Speed and Weekends call free. It is very very cheap and the quality is very good as campare with Pakistan which is mostly 2-4 MB speed.
