Bangladesh VoIP poviders probably have to pack up their bags very soon as local telecom authority BTRC suspends VoIP service. Don't miss this shocking news if you are a bangladeshi. Your calls will be costly now.

Local Telecom authority in Bangladesh BTRC has announced that they will fine mobile operators for the SIM cards used in one of the largest VoIP business ran from the country. According to BTRC, around 1 million SIM cards are used to run the VoIP business and Out of which 600,000 SIM cars are now blocked The rest will be blocked soon.

Not many people know this but Bangladesh government currently does not offer VoIP licences which means If you are using a VOIP provider based in bangladesh, he is operating a illegal business. BTRC also revealed eye-popping statistics on international calls usage. The average daily legal international calls were of around 35 million minutes in April 2012. However, It used to be over 50 million minutes previously. Now you know, the illegal VoIP Providers are routing a whopping 15 million minutes a month.
