QCell, the latest GSM company to
enter The Gambia’s telecoms industry, said in a text message to its subscribers
that it has double regrets over the setback. The company said it regrets that
the service is no more available, as well as regrets any inconvenience the
unavailability of the service may have caused.
The service was launched on 5 March
this year by QCell in collaboration with national electricity provider Nawec.
By
the time of going to press, no official reason was given for this impromptu
stoppage of the service by the company.
So it is not clear what might have really gone amiss or been responsible for the sudden stoppage
or indefinite unavailability of the service. This, according to QCell, will
have an immediate and visible impact on the daily lives of people.
It
is not also clear when the service will resume but a customer care agent of the
company told this paper that customers will be notified whenever the service is
available again.
