Braintel Users Facing Problems With Outgoing Calls
Users of the popular VOIP servcie, Braintel, are facing problems with outgoing calls. The message says: “All circuits are busy - please try your call later”. Users have experienced this since first week of August. Braintel officials have posted a note on their home page (see above). For more on this see this discussion.
This is one of the longest outage of service from Braintel. I mean, how long does it take to upgrade servers?Does anyone has some idea of when this will be resolved? Perhaps someone from Braintel can share their side of the story?

Hi Guys
I know what is happening with braintel. Unfortunately PTA they block brain services because of illegal use.
Braintel is just for pakistan but they are getting business just from overseas and its not leagl.They have license just for pakistan.
You can undertsand how they can stop services for sucha long time.Actually they are not allowed to provide more service.
Untill they sort out with bloddy PTA.
Hope this will helpful for all of u guys
BYe
[...] LL Services August 17, 2008 — Tee Emm Fellow blogger and friend Babar Bhatti has complained about the problems he is facing in using Braintel’s local loop services (probably from out there in US). A [...]
It is now almost one year since I subscribed with Braintel. I have only been able to connect for less than 10 times with this service. It seems to be a rip off.
When one complains, they have one standard reply that others are not facing this problem (which I do not believe at all).
They have made their website too technical that only a telco expert can understand. This is an easy way to hide behind their disservice.
This seems to be a BrainLess service.
1. Please call brain tell at 210 0786 and also log in a claim in their web site and also demand a credit for the line rent they will be charging you, for the period of outage.
2. Please call the snakes in PTA who do not allow ip telephony. one of them is Mr Sajjad Latif Awan and give thme some BS. they do not understand how mucch the communication opens new oppurtunities for Pakistan

Dear Friends,
Like you I was also in impression that it is some PTA problem. But I think it is not. I have a lot of good friends working for Brain and they told me time to time it is a real technical issue they are facing. Like today Sep 2 2008, I made few calls from Brain tel on PTCL.

Hi,
It appears braintel does not have that default message anymore.
But the service is not working either. I am trying to dial numbers and it just does not dial any number for me.
Any idea whats the status if someone have friends in braintel.

ah wat a waste of a service.
miss gud old days
I have been told by insiders at Braintel that this is a problem with capacity and it should be resolved in a week or so. Lets hope so.
