Zong Namaz alerts cost Rs 3 plus tax a day on 7867, Weatherwalay weather alerts Rs 6 plus tax on 9925 and Daily Khata Rs 1 a week on 2288. Start and stop codes.
Zong sends 3 kinds of daily SMS alert for a fee: Namaz times and Hadees on the Islamic service (send Sub to 7867, Rs 3 plus tax a day), weather alerts on Weatherwalay (send subd to 9925, Rs 6 plus tax a day) and a daily usage report on Daily Khata (send SUB to 2288, Rs 1 plus tax a week). Each one stops with an Unsub SMS to the same number.
We read Zong's own page for each service on 10 November 2026. We did not subscribe. Below are the prices, what each alert sends, the codes to start and stop it, and the free options in the My Zong App and from the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) that may do the job without a charge.
Zong SMS alerts cost Rs 1 a week to Rs 6 a day
The cheapest Zong alert is Daily Khata at Rs 1 plus tax a week. The Islamic service costs Rs 3 plus tax a day or Rs 25 plus tax a month. Weatherwalay costs Rs 6 plus tax a day, Rs 20 plus tax a week or Rs 83.6 plus tax a month.
| Alert | What you get | Price | Start | Stop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zong Islamic | Namaz alerts, Ayaat, Hadees, Duas | Rs 3 + tax a day, or Rs 25 + tax a month | Sub to 7867, or *7867# | Unsub to 7867 |
| Weatherwalay | Rain, storm, fog and heat alerts for your area | Rs 6 + tax a day, Rs 20 + tax a week, Rs 83.6 + tax a month | subd, subw or subm to 9925 | unsub to 9925 |
| Daily Khata | Yesterday's spending on calls, SMS, data and services | Rs 1 + tax a week | SUB to 2288 | Unsub to 2288 |
Zong's pages say sales tax of 19.5% is added on usage. By our sum, the Islamic daily plan comes to about Rs 3.59 a day and Weatherwalay daily to about Rs 7.17 a day.
The Zong Islamic service sends Namaz alerts on 7867
Zong Islamic sends Namaz time alerts, Quran verses, Hadees and Duas by SMS. By phone call on 7867 you can hear a Quran planner, a daily message, Masnoon Duas and talks by religious scholars. Subscribing once signs you up for both the SMS and call content.
- Send Sub to 7867, or dial *7867#, or call 7867.
- Read the confirmation SMS. Zong lists a daily charge of Rs 3 plus tax and a monthly charge of Rs 25 plus tax, but its page does not say which plan each code starts.
- Alerts then arrive each day until you stop them.
- To stop, send Unsub to 7867.
Calls to 7867 cost Rs 0.20 plus tax a minute on top of the subscription. Our view: the monthly charge of Rs 25 plus tax is far cheaper than paying Rs 3 plus tax every day, which adds up to Rs 90 plus tax over 30 days by our sum. If the SMS says daily, ask 310 to move you to the monthly charge.
Namaz times free in the My Zong App
Zong's My Zong App page lists an Islamic Portal inside the app with Azaan timings, Quran translation and Ahadees. Zong says checking things in the app is free, though it uses some internet. If you have a smartphone with data, try the app first. Our My Zong App guide shows how to register.
Weatherwalay sends local weather alerts on 9925
Weatherwalay is a weather alert service sold through Zong. It sends forecasts, rain alerts and warnings for your area by SMS, in English or Urdu. Daily and weekly plans renew on their own and are for prepaid users. The monthly plan does not renew and is open to postpaid users too.
- Send sub or subd to 9925 for the daily plan.
- Send subw to 9925 for the weekly plan, or subm for the monthly plan.
- Wait up to 15 minutes for it to start.
- To stop, send unsub to 9925.
Zong says there is no free trial. Its banner shows "Per Day Rs. 9 Load", while the price list says Rs 6 plus tax. The gap is likely the advance tax taken when you recharge, but Zong does not explain it, so expect about Rs 7 to Rs 9 of balance a day.
The free option is the PMD's own app and alerts. Our Pak Weather app guide shows how to get official PMD forecasts at no charge. For a farm or a long road trip in fog season, a paid SMS alert can still help where data is weak.
Daily Khata tells you where your balance went
Daily Khata sends one SMS a day, at about 4:00 am, with the previous day's spending on calls, SMS, internet and paid services. It costs Rs 1 plus tax a week, renews on its own, and is for prepaid users only. It is the cheapest way to catch a service you did not mean to start.
Send SUB to 2288 to start it and Unsub to 2288 to stop it. If the report shows a charge you do not recognise, our Zong unsubscribe code list has the stop code for each paid service.
