I am new to Doha and will be moving into a newly constructed villa in a few weeks. Can anyone help with where i can go to have TV Cable, Phone and Internet services hooked up? We don't really need a phone line at home (we would only use cell phones) but i understand that you need a phone line for interent to be activated.
Are there any companies that provide a service for all of these?
Advice would be appreciated.

Good day & hope you are doing well. Welcome to Doha

Now regarding TV/Phone/Internet connections, There are two options for you to consider.

Plan 1.

-------

1. ADSL high speed internet connection 512 KBPS Qr.199 per month,

visit QTEL customer service center.

2. For telephone Qr.100/- per quarter (every 3 months), visit QTEL

customer service center.

3. for satelite TV you need to buy a dish & decoder and a satelite

shop will assist you in getting the FTA(Free to Air)channels for

you. (you need to setup Hotbird for europe channels,NILESAT for

arabic channels) Dish+Decoder for watching hotbird costs

around Qr.500/-(one time charge). To install you can go for RX

Phones located in area called NAJMA,shop name RX Phones, Contact

Mr.Asaad 5389499.

Plan 2.

------

There's a new service from QTEL called QTEL Mozaic all in one service offering Internet(512 KBPS)+Telephone+Satelite TV just for Qr.250/- per month. You can choose your package to watch, just have a look at the web and decide which one is better for you. http://tv.mozaic.qa/channel_packages.html

FOr QTEL Mozaic All you need to do is pay a visit to QTEL customer service centres located in areas like AL SADD,SOUD NAJDA(shopping mall in Grand Hamad Street where all mobile shops are found),City Center or LULU Hypermarket,try to find out which one is near by you.
