I was browsing the Apple online store and i found out that they are now selling unlocked iPhones !

Its priced at around KD 178 add the 5% sales tax and KD 5 for Aramex you’ll end up paying around KD 200 which is more than what its sold for locally.

Wouldn’t it be nice to see all Apple products priced smiler to Apple online store?

Zain noticed the iPhone post i wrote yesterday and took action on it very quickly, i got an email at 8AM and then a call at 10am !

Mr.Al-Omar explained to me the reasons behind the 6 month period and thanked me for bringing the issue to their attention he also agreed that the customers’ history should be considered in such cases and exceptions should be made -i was the first -.

I was excepting my post to be read by Zain since all new posts are auto shared by a lot of aggregator sites and twitters, and the fact that Zain monitor online conversations around their brand across the social web, but i never expected such a quick action from them !

Thank you Zain for the prompt customer support and for solving the issue.

I liked the new iPhone offers from Zain and since my voice and data consumption fits one of the monthly packages they are offering, i decided to go and get me a new white iPhone.

I went to Hawaly branch, it was very crowded, the numbering machine was broken but the guys there where helping everybody with smile on their face. My turn comes i till the guy behind the counter that i want to subscribe to one of the iPhone packages… he says great and ask me for my ID, and just when i hand him the ID he goes sorry you are not allegeable for the offer !!!!

I ask why? and he goes your residency has only 5 month left and we require you have a least 6 month !!! – ليش مقدم على ڤيزا شنجن –

I try to argue a bit trying to understand the logic behind the 6 month, but he fails to explain and just say: its the rules sir and its from up there !!!

I ask him to check since when am a Zain customer, and goes since 1993, i say does that have any value, would you or the branch manager be able to make an exception? he goes sorry sir we can’t !! so i leave the branch laughing trying to comprehend what just happened !!

I have been a loyal Zain customer for the past 18 years, i never tried of even had the urge to try any other service provider but unfortunately it seams all that doesn’t count under any brand loyalty program at Zain !!

The irony is am gona continue using Zain services because i believe they are the best and just blame the above on the system .

Thank you Zain for making my day.

The next big thing

Apple just launched the iPad, the device is just a bigger iPhone but without the phone, but with 3G connection that we can use to place VOIP calls, a lot of people my have been disappointed or was expecting something much more interesting than just a bigger iPodiPhone, but i was expecting this since the day i got addicted to my iPhone, the damn thing dosn’t leave my hand..it goes to all the places i go to especially the toilet in the morning, either to listen to music while showering or to check and answer emails while….

I can conduct around 70% of my office work communication using my iPhone but at so many occasions i wished it had a bigger screen, faster processor, better battery life, and the ability to save files and openplay different media formats, the same goes for my laptop i always wanted a faster, lighter 12 inch Mac with better battery life -am still using my 12″ PB G4-.

With the new iPad i believe i can do it all, and i very much belive its going to be the next and only businessentertainment gadget one will ever need…come to think of it at the office most of us use their computers for email, internet, and socializing, at home we use our laptops for the same plus watching movie, listing to music, and gaming, the iPad will do all that and maybe more, so i guess we’ll soon say goodbye to our laptops or we’ll just use them edit home movies.
