PTCL Speed Bolt-On: Day Boost From Rs 69, Social Stream Rs 759 and Weekend Extreme 100 Mbps

You buy a bolt-on on PTCL's Flash Fiber site with your PTCL number and a one-time code. The offers only work if your current package is slower than the boost. So a 30 Mbps or 40 Mbps home is the main audience. This guide lists every offer, shows when each one is cheaper than a full upgrade, and covers what to do if the boost does not show.

All 5 PTCL Speed Bolt-On offers and prices

PTCL sells two kinds of bolt-on. Day Boost and Weekend Extreme are one-off. They run for a fixed time and then stop. Social Stream is a monthly bolt-on that renews until you ask PTCL to remove it.

Day Boost: 50 or 75 Mbps for one day

Day Boost is the cheapest way to test a faster line. Rs 69 buys 50 Mbps for 24 hours. Rs 149 buys 75 Mbps for 24 hours. It does not renew. When the 24 hours end, your line goes back to its normal speed. To boost again the next day, you reactivate it by calling PTCL on 1218.

Weekend Extreme: 100 Mbps on Saturday and Sunday

Weekend Extreme gives 100 Mbps for 48 hours for Rs 399. It is valid on Saturday and Sunday only. It suits a weekend of big game downloads, a family streaming on several screens, or a large backup upload. It does not renew, so you reactivate it on 1218 for the next weekend.

Social Stream: a monthly boost to 50 or 75 Mbps

Social Stream is the monthly option. Rs 759 a month lifts a slower line to 50 Mbps. Rs 1,099 a month lifts it to 75 Mbps. It stays on and is charged every month until you ask PTCL to stop it. Ask 1218 whether the boost covers all your traffic or only some apps before you choose it over a package upgrade.

How to buy a PTCL Speed Bolt-On online

You need your Flash Fiber number with the area code, and access to the mobile number and email PTCL has on file. The one-time code goes to both.

1. Open the Speed Bolt-On page on ptclflashfiber.com. It is under VAS in the site menu.
2. Pick the offer you want and press Subscribe on its card.
3. Enter your PTCL number with the area code, for example 0512283352 for an Islamabad line.
4. Press Proceed. PTCL sends a one-time password (OTP) to your registered email and mobile number.
5. Enter the OTP and press Proceed again. PTCL confirms the request, and its support team contacts you if anything more is needed.

If the OTP does not arrive, your contact details on PTCL's record are probably old. Call 1218 to update them, or buy the bolt-on over the phone on the same number.

Bolt-on or package upgrade: which is cheaper

The answer depends on how often you need the extra speed. PTCL's monthly Flash Fiber packages cost Rs 3,499 for 30 Mbps, Rs 4,999 for 40 Mbps and Rs 5,999 for 50 Mbps, as our PTCL Flash Fiber packages guide sets out. Here is how a 30 Mbps home compares, by our own sums.

Three things stand out. Day Boost every day costs almost three times as much as Social Stream, so use it only for the odd day. Social Stream at Rs 759 is far below the Rs 2,500 gap between the 30 Mbps and 50 Mbps packages. But the 50 Mbps package also brings free Waada health cover and other extras, so compare the whole bill, not only the speed.

Problems and fixes

• The offer will not take your number. Bolt-ons are for Flash Fiber lines only. A copper DSL line cannot use them.
• Your package is already 50 Mbps. Day Boost 50 and Social Stream 50 are only for lines below 50 Mbps. Choose a 75 Mbps or 100 Mbps offer instead.
• The speed did not change. Restart the fibre router (ONT) once. Then run a speed test on a cable, not Wi-Fi, because many phones and older routers top out below 50 Mbps on Wi-Fi.
• The day ran out. Day Boost and Weekend Extreme stop on their own. Call 1218 to reactivate.
• You want Social Stream off. It renews every month. Call 1218 and ask PTCL to unsubscribe it before the next billing cycle.

A faster speed uses your data faster too. Flash Fiber packages carry a fair usage limit, and our page on checking PTCL internet usage shows where to see it. If the line itself is down, use PTCL complaint 1218.
