ufone roaming costs close to Rs.250 per minute for incoming and outgoing calls so avoid roaming at all cost.
get qtel or vodafone (not much of a price different when calling Pakistan) but vodafone gives you 2gb internet package for just QR.100 which will benefit you..keep reading. you can purchase a sim by showing your passport and visa. calling from pakistan to qatar is cheaper than calling vice-versa.
when i initially landed here i paid some really hefty bills for phone calls here and in pakistan but now with skype its almost free.
best choice is to install skype on your phone and purchase a US phone number and it will cost not more than Rs.2 for calls from Pakistan. you can get international package on your ptcl phone in Pakistan and get 500 minutes free every month. vodafone 2gb internet package would be more than enough for a whole month or even more. skype uses less than 20mb per hour for voice calls so 2gb is like over 100 hours.
