Hi, lot of times I have issues when trying to send SMS to a foreign number. Status just shows that SMS is pending. Just checked all the settings with Qtel and according them there isn't any problem with my phone.

Anyone else having similar issues?

Lol, how typical of them.. Well I guess I'll have to wait a few weeks and give it a try =)Would be nice though to send some christmas greetings now but....

Other funny thing was that I called them few times and asked how to raise my credit limit from 2000QR. They gave me instructions, I didn't do anything and suddenly the limit was 10,000QR .. Lol..

I had the same problem a few months ago, where all text messages I sent (local or international) would just sit in my outbox, pending.

I contacted Qtel and they confirmed all settings were correct. Qtel tried a couple of other things but no joy, and then they just sent me a text saying 'case closed'.

But then a couple of weeks later text messages just started working again. I never got to the bottom of what happened.
