I have recently shifted to Oman and planning to get my family soon from Sri Lanka. Currently, I am communicating with my family using my cell phone which is an expensive affair. Can anyone suggest a better alternative?

Omantel provides the most affordable data and voice plan in Oman. The unlimited voice call package includes international calling service as well. The data plan gets unlimited high-speed internet at an affordable rate. That being said, if you are looking for unlimited data and voice plans, then Omantel is an excellent option.

Yes, Molten yes. That is because I am not stupid. After all these years in this world, I can very well understand the difference between a genuine enquiry and a troll.

Just let me know why the Moderators deleted that post. According to YOUR thinking, they too don't have any sympathy.

Way & Angle, Just ignore Accha, He is the only one guy here at QL, nobody is idle like him.

Accha, You are not showing any sympathy for a person who needs a doctor, what else can somebody you more important than this ?

Angelo: A person who could post two lines in correct English, is certainly someone with an education. In today's world any person with that level of knowledge must be aware of all the above system now available to keep in touch with people back home. They are so common now. But this 'educated" person goes about posting something rubbish at QL. His earlier query that got deleted by the Moderators read: " I am located in Muscat and need advice on a skin doctor near my place."

He chose QL to have some fun fooling people around!

WhatsApp, viber, messages go through fine, but video and voice are blocked.

I was told to install VPN, but that is blocked as well.

Try IMO

Wayne: His earlier query was deleted by Mods because it was stupid. It beat this one by miles.

After the ongoing onslaught of stupid, unwanted comments by Molten Metal that has been taking place at QL for over six years now, there remains little space for another one.

There are many choices here. Tools like FaceTime, Skype, WhatsApp and many others. If your family in Sri Lanka has access to a smart phone with WhatsApp installed, you can use that to communicate when them via audio and video.

Teen, You can REPORT to mods against Accha being disrespectful to you.

Unimaginable !! Is this the we behave with a guest ? Being SO BLUNT !! This has upset me for the rest of the day. Accha, Please do not do to the outsiders please.

From the query you have posted, it is clear you are an "educated" person as your English reflects that. You will note that I have used the educated within inverted commas. That was for a reason. Educated people do not go about posting such "stupid" queries and you have two of them so far at QL.

Suggest you go back to Sri Lanka where and join some good educational institution where you can overcome the shortfall you have had in learning. That would solve your problems of suffering from skin problems and being able to talk to your family at almost negligible cost.
