It was about time that ILQ did another ‘Busted’ article so this time we focused on Qtel vs Vodafone.

Vodafone has officially flicked on it’s switch and started services from the 1st of March. In the coming days, Vodafone ahs announced that they plan to also select their first thousand users.
The buzz that’s getting more people interested is the IPO itself. The date April 12 2009 has been set as the launch of the IPO where Qataris will be able to invest in 40% of the company. The IPO is due to run through until April 26 2009.
The amount to be raised is roughly 338,000,000 shares at a value of 10 QR + 25dhs.
The general public are definately welcome an opportunity to recoup some of their losses after the financial crisis, which some have claimed did not impact Qatar as much as other countries.
We at ILQ think that it’s a great investment and if you do your research, you’ll see that Vodafone is a company that’s going to take care of it’s investors both in the short and especially in the long term.

People may not realize this, but Vodafone has a great deal of responsibility when it comes to changing this country.
It’s breaking the last telecoms monopoly in the region. It’s like the guy who swung a hammer to take down the final bring on the Berlin wall.
If we sit down to think about everything that’s going to change in Qatar, we’d see that the list is quite long.
1) Competition (which means better life for the customer)
2) Better quality of advertisements
3) Encourages others to enter the scene (not necessarily in the same
4) Gives hope to other international companies
5) Encourages better quality of products and services
6) Connects Qatar to the rest of the world (in terms of brand awareness)
7) Will bring more events to Qatar
8) Will encourage more charitable causes
Look around now! I’m noticing that Qtels advertisements have improved, their offers have improved, and in fact, their service on the phone is much more politer! All of this happened with just the notion that Vodafone’s coming to town.
A lot of the staff at Vodafone are excited about what’s happening. They’re enthusiastic, craving to make a change in Qatar, and they have really upbeat attitudes. That’s what every customer needs from the people that provide them with a service.
What does everyone else think about this?

Here’s a nice little highlight from ILQ News.
QTel are going to launch their new set of numbers tomorrow (Thursday 13th of Nov) at 3pm
Time to grab a nice number. Oh and buying to resell on the black market will result in a 1,000 QR fine.
