Nepal Telecom (NT, some still call it NTC) has started offering free 3G activation for prepaid as well as postpaid sims. The subscription fee and the need to go to a Nepal Telecom sim center and fill up a form has been waved off for prepaid sim card users of this company. Now both prepaid as well as postpaid sim card users can activate a faster internet for their mobile phones.

To activate Nepal Telecom 3G follow these steps:

• Compose a new message in your phone.
• Type 3G in the message area.
• Send it to 1400

After you send the message, you will receive a confirmation message which states:

    Thank you for subscribing 3G service. You will be connected by 5 PM next working day:Nepal Telecom

After your 3G subscription has been activated you will receive the following message from the number 2455 :)
