I have just rang Q Tel and they have advised that what happens now, regardless of when you validity expires is you will get 30 days from the day you scratch and use your Hala recharge card. (based on 30 riyal card). If you credit period is currently longer than the 30 days, then that period is still effective. So it's hardluck to all of us who had just extended our credit before this new Hala Card system came in to place. (which our whole family just did)

In a word, the new validity is not accrueable. For example, if you had 10 days left on your validity and had to buy another card ... then your 30 days would be effective from the date you sctratched you new card.

What I am disappointed with in this new system, is that for those who don't use the mobile much, will have to buy credit as the validity could be expiring while they still have credit. So this new system will be forcing you to use your credit each month. I know the money isn't much ... but it's the principle.

ROLL ON COMPETITION ......

This new Hala Card system should be accruable.
