Calling from Viber/skype to mobile phones is an illegal warning
The Nepal Telecommunication Authority (NTAA) has clarified that it is illegal to make phone calls on mobile and fixed lines from the app.
The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) has warned that recharge cards of various apps like Viber and Skype are being sold and phone calls are being made on mobile and landline using app features like Viber Out and Skype Out.
"As it is understood that the telecommunication service providers of Nepal are communicating on the mobile network and landline telephone through this app, this kind of action is against the Telecommunications Act, so do not do such thing," the authority said in a statement.
Similarly, legal action has been warned against those who commit such acts.
Espan said to the authority, "Let's mention the internet fee and the tax paid by the customer separately in the customer bill."
The Internet Service Providers Association of Nepal (ISPAN), an umbrella organization of Internet service providers, has requested the regulatory body to mention in the bill separately the fees to be charged to customers and the tax to be paid from the new fiscal year.
Earlier, the company had informed the Nepal Telecommunication Authority about the billing process in a new way, but now the company has given more details about the bill with detailed examples.
In a recent letter to NEA, ISPAN said it would alert customers about the amount paid in royalties and Rural Telecommunication Development Fund (RTDF) fees in a separate note.
According to Spain, Internet service providers have been claiming that royalties should not be charged for not using government frequencies. The organization has clarified in a letter that it would not be appropriate to take royalty amount from the authority.
According to the letter received by Technology News, it has demanded to keep the internet fee and maintenance fee at 50-50 percent in the bill. The letter, referring to the recent directives given by the Accounts Committee, has also drawn attention to the directives given on RTDF and the non-imposition of royalties in the support and maintenance of telecommunications.
The regulatory body NEA is discussing the matter with the internet service providers and will take a decision after further discussions.
