Hi Everyone

I just arrived in Doha yesterday. I am trying to use my mobile phone but the SIM card I have in it is not working. I guess I need to buy a new SIM card from Qtel? Does anyone know where I can do this and if I am able to do this straight away or do I need one of those letters from my employer giving me permission. Am planning to head out to the malls this afternoon so any quick replies would be greatly appreciated.

As all said,

it is an easy thing,

Go to any open Qtel such as

CityCenter, Villagio, Electricity road,..

copy of passport

And Vwala...you have what you asked for,...

Though some get more and other less.. Lol

are you refering to your Qtel simcard? if you have old Qtel simcard but is no longer working/expired, you can have the same number. just go to any Qtel office, pay QR200 and you can have your old number back.
