The NCA has set a benchmark of 85 per cent or more for billing performance and help or enquiry services, 90 per cent for supplementary services and 75 per cent for overall quality of service.
The survey revealed that 74.7 per cent of mobile subscribers were satisfied with the services of their mobile network operators.
