BTW, following the launch event last night at Katara, Qtel is now Ooredoo.

Money well spent on dreaming that up...

I got the spam but it was 30 minutes free international calls.

no change in display yet

Yup, mine the free 30 mins. Already have 2500 international minutes of which I only use half. Who spends an hour and 20 mins a day on the phone?

Ryan from what I believe...but I may be wrong....There is no Qtel on the pearl, just Vodafone.

Qtel is now at the pearl, but not all the towers yet. We changed to fibre as the Vodafone speed collapsed in the evenings. Seems ok now, but expensive for what you get. Just pop into the Qtel office in lagoona mall and they'll sort you out.

Crewegirl

Really. My god they worked fast as in first week in Jan we were told no qtel.
How much is it per month please?
Which towers have it do you know?

DOHDUBMAN

Its around 500-600 for 50mps...

I'm in tower 1 and it's being installed tomorrow. I have friends in tower 30 who already have it installed. Not sure about any of the others.....

DOHDUBMAN

Maybe i was just being a bit cynical then. Alltho its been 4 days and i havent heard a peep from them. I was told 1-2 days for the first contact.

DOHDUBMAN

Reply to which towers ive no idea im afraid. Im in tower 8 and i guess its in there or they wouldnt of offered.

I was told straight off before my address was mentioned though that "the pearl has fibre optic"

Ill update you next week on how it went,speeds,service etc

mrblast

I've just had it installed today and apparently we have speeds of 62mb/s (even though we're only paying for 50mb/s). Will be interesting to see what the speeds is like at peak times though

DOHDUBMAN

Im only paying for 50mps as well so this sounds like good news
