How To disconnect the PTCL connection?

This is a guide about how to disconnect the PTCL connection. There is also a PTCL Disconnection application sample for download.

The process of getting the PTCL connection for the internet, smart TV, or landline is easy. It just requires you to dial the PTCL helpline number or submit the connection form on the official website. But for disconnection, the process is not that easy. There are a few things you should keep in mind because in a hurry you may delay the disconnection process resulting in load-up arrears charges.

Things Required

  1. Application

This is essential if someone other than the connection owner is visiting the PTCL office for disconnection. They will need the PTCL disconnection application form addressed to the “PTCL business Manager”. You can download the PTCL disconnection application sample from the following link:

2. ID Copies

Owner National Identity Card Copies are required and will be attached to the application form.

3. Router

You have to submit the router installed with your connection. The power adapter should also be given back.

Steps to Disconnect the PTCL Connection

  1. Visit a nearby PTCL office with the router, ID copies, and Application form(If required).
  2. The officer will ask you the reason why you want to disconnect the connection. This question is just asked to fill up the feedback form.
  3. The officer will tell you about the remaining charges, which you have to pay right on the spot.
  4. After taking all the required items from you, the officer will fill out a new form.
  5. After completing the form, the PTCL officer will give you the receipt of the new form.

Done. It will take about 24-72 hours to process your application.

Note: The receiving receipt will be kept safely for a claim in case of any issue at the end of PTCL.

  1. Why Should we have to return the Router when we paid for it. It was charged to me!!!!! Kindly advise?

    1. If you have bought the router from PTCL, then there is no need to return it. In normal cases, the router is rented to you and will be used till you had the connection. For more info call 1236

    1. If you paid for it, then there is no need to return. It’s your property. It other cases, the router price is not charged and it’s the property of PTCL.

      1. Could you kindly check whether the router supplied to me with 04236654192 (Lahore) is on rent or was paid by me.

    Even its Fiber optic it still going to show its reality with constant disconnection and low speed internet now upto 0.01 mbps lowest possible with high charges cause its the new “FLASH FIBER”

  21. Service to bad hai hi, Lekin apka staff ko select krny ka criteria kya hota h? Intahi Nkammy log betha detay hein app. Very pathetic service and poor staff.

  22. I have been using PTCl smart TV, internet and phone Services for the last so many years. As per my experience PTCL is providing the worst services. I have become sick of Frequent disconnection, and slow browsing problems, and hence now I am going to unsubscribe PTCL.

  23. There are 42 illegal PTCL phone connections are registered against my CNIC, as my actual phone connection is only one. What is the process of disconnecting the illegal phone connections?

  24. the close of connection is not easy method, if u bring all papers, the ptcl man bring new thing for u,
    they want u visit office again and again,
    because ur free for them.
    no important of time.

  25. Please guide as I want to disconnected my home PTCL landline but the connection is in name of my father who has passed away.

  26. اگر آپ یہ سمجھتے ھیں کہ ان کی انٹرنیٹ سروس کبھی نا کبھی اچھی ھو سکتی ھے تو یہ آپ کی بھول ھے۔کیوں کہ ان کو چوری کی عادت پڑ چکی ھے۔ اور چور چوری سے جائے لیکن ہیرا پھیری سے نہ جاۓ۔

  27. Me ny PTCL Flash Fibre lagwaya hy. Aur purana internet connection disconnect kewaana hy. Us k liye lineman keh raha tha k apna router submit krwana hga. Jo k abhi 2 months phly new liya tha 4000 bill me lag k aya tha uska. To wo hum ny wapis kyu krna hy? Wo to ab hmri property hui na. Aur jo purana router tha wo bhi wapis ly gaye thy jab new router lagaya tha. Ye kch smjh nh aya. Koi explain krdy ye logic!

  28. I have been a PTCL user for many years and recently upgraded to PTCL Flash Fiber. A week ago, after moving to a new residence, I informed the PTCL lineman about the shift. Despite trying to contact him for several days, he did not respond. I then placed a complaint online.

    Yesterday, I received a call from the local PTCL office stating that they had received my complaint, but due to the Eid holidays, they were unable to address it immediately. I explained my repeated attempts to contact the local lineman. Today, they visited and informed me that the nearest PTCL connection point is full and they cannot provide any service. They advised me to return the device immediately to avoid further billing.

    I also contacted the PTCL call center for a solution, but they were unhelpful and suggested I switch to receiving my bill online instead of a physical bill. I found this suggestion absurd, as I have to cancel the service because PTCL can’t provide me with service. However, they insisted it would be better to avoid additional charges for the physical bill and to receive future bills via email.

  29. Is there no way to disconnect through online method? If we have brought the router and don’t need to return it then there should be an online method to disconnect for such customers. Guide please
