There is one opposite Al Alhi hospital right across the main road - that is the only one I have ever seen. Now, if it works or not, is another matter

Seen couple of them at the airport but outside aren't they obsolete in the world of mobile phones - you rather buy a QAR 100 handset with QAR 50 charge
