Does Skype work in KSA?
Hello
possibly being posted to Dammam, will Skype work there? It work in Abu Dhabi provided you have the software ready installed
I will be grateful if someone could confirm this
thanks

Provided you have a connection fast enough (easier said that done in some places in KSA) it works everywhere!

Skype is fine for typing.
It is often ok for voice but forget video unless you are in an embassy.
3G sux, don't waste your money - mine is usually running at 100 b/s no k or m, seriously. Terrible dissappointment
The best time is very early in the morning because ME is asleep and so is EU.
Fridays is usually ok too.
But skype and skype calls are my main comms with Blighty. Or She Who Must Be Obeyed phones me on the cheap calls from there to here.

I had a Mobily 3G dongle when I was living in Khobar and it was fine. Connection speed was usually around 4Mbps, but obviously this depends on where you live in relation to the masts...
Skype is fine in Saudi. It is not blocked.

You're not having much luck in KSA are you Peter?

Skype does work here in KSA. Used it in Riyadh, Dammam and Naariyah. Use it in the Mobily 3G network for voice comm and it works perfect.
