Well we tried the numbers given to us by his TA, on qtel we just never got connected & then tried on the net , did this every day for a week , so I finally assumed we can't call from here, My appologies for the wrong info.

Mr Kaplatzki - You can definitely call an Israel landline from Qtel. I did it this morning.

You cannot call Israel from doha, [ on qtel ] I know because my father was on a pilgrimage there last month and we couldn't get through at all , finally had to use freecall.com to speak to him.

you brokering a mid east peace deal and that is why you need to call the land between Egypt and Lebanon?

No abcd, I see the point you were making. I was being facetious. My apologies.

This probably isn't the best thread for discussing whether Israel exists or not. I think there are plenty of other threads already doing that. Try a QL search for 'Israel'.

'Occupied Palestine' isn't listed either.

By tallg• 14 May 2009 12:02

It does raise the question of why Qtel doesn't list the tarrif to Israel, since it is possible to call there. Any ideas?

lilBoPeep, what's so funny about it? are you aware of the fact that qatar has economic and political ties with israel? Government of Qatar doesn't find it funny... i hope it's rather mutually beneficial..

Yes, I'm sure it's possible, and the chances are it would work fine. He probably had a faster internet connection than me as well.

well.. i knew some lawyer in Doha, who use to have all his business conversations with the country from the opposite part of the world over skype.. but you surely know better what is suitable for you..

Thanks QS. I find skype is fine for friends and family, where the odd drop out or disconnection isn't the end of the world, but isn't really reliable enough for more important calls.

lilBoPeep: I only noticed because I had to call someone there - I wasn't just browsing the tarrif sheet looking for missing countries!

So it turns out that you can call Israel. No idea what the tarrif is though!

Nice talking Da.
