Ncell:
Ncell
is a privately owned GSM mobile operator in Nepal. It is the first
private company to operate GSM services in telecommunications sector of
Nepal with the brand name “MERO MOBILE”, which was re-branded as Ncell
in March 12, 2010.[3] It broke the monopoly held by the then
state-owned, now public telecommunication company, Nepal Telecom by
building a new arena in cellular telephony services. The company is now
owned in 80% by Swedish/Finnish TeliaSonera Holdings.[4] Ncell is the
largest ISP in Nepal with a subscriber base of more than 1.9 million
users.[5] Ncell had 10 million mobile subscribers in early 2013.[6]

ABout Ncell HAcking
Neither
Ncell have ever released any data on such things nor all people have
found these so called “Ncell hacks” work for them. Back to 2009, a
friend of mine, borrowed another friend’s Mero Mobile SIM (Spice
rebranded Mero Mobile to Ncell only in February 2010) with an intention
to call his brother in India. Later that day, he disclosed that Ncell’s
international call was free that day, while others were boosting they
did a hack to make free calls.
However, it was Ncell’s
system or tower upgrading failure that lead to thousands of unmonitored
and free international calls that people would notice in a while. Such
thing has happened many times even in Nepal Telecom’s (NT) network –
specially free national calls and SMS. Let’s not discuss about
reliability in upgrading leakage (the dormant time during the process of
upgrading system) of Nepalese telecom companies here as we all know how
well these companies are serving (?) the Nepalese customers; hacks are
enough!
Back to our story of “Hack Ncell 3G or Hack
NTC”, like most of the Nepalese journos I did gather a figure of 5,410
results on Google search result page (SERP) while querying “hack ncell
3g” (intentional query so as to figure out how much copy-pasters would
really get with Blog*Spot thing and mesmerize innocent Nepalese internet
users!) The same article entitled “Hack Ncell 3G internet to use for
free!” published by at least 139 times by different bloggers not only in
Blogspot or WordPress sites but also international content farms and
sites alike (139 was the number where I left counting on the first 20
Google result pages.)Cellular Mobile service provider tower in Nepal
