Why is my Telecel internet slow?
Check your bundle and account balance.
Use the Telecel balance and data menus below. Check expiry and any app restrictions before comparing a bundle with another offer.
Look at your connection type.
A 3G connection and a 4G connection have different capabilities. Check the indicator on your phone and repeat your test after moving to a stronger signal.

Can I use this with Telecel?
Yes. The speed test measures the connection you are using. Pause background transfers and note whether you are on mobile data, Wi-Fi or a wired connection.
Do these figures show Telecel's average speed?
No. Subscriptions and base stations describe the network's size. Use a measured speed test to check your connection. A reliable provider comparison needs comparable measurements and a published method.
How do I report a recurring connection problem?
Record download and upload speeds, ping, test time, location and connection type. Contact Telecel through its official support channels.
