  1. I use 9mobile network only to buy apps from play store. Asides that, it’s a useless network. They don’t have wide network coverage compare to their competitors.

  2. Why Would 9mobile Subscription Be Expensive Than Others With No Good Service Like Others And You Expect Them To Keep Making Huge Subscribers? I Think 9mobile Has Managerial Problem And They Should Address That To Avoid Colapsing Its Potential.
