Look here on the group

The same person even said it wasn't. If there is an official pricing it's in the newspaper :) The newspaper only published the 3G.

Either way, that poster made a mistake, only more proof that people in Vodafone are human lol

I don't dispute that Starlink has good pricing and service. I actually promote them. But we won't know what Vodafone's pricing is and how competitive it is until they announce it right?

If they did not decide on the prices internally, then why did they announce it on Facebook:

QR 1400 is a lot to claim for one device, oh and by the way, I already bought one yesterday, and it is factory unlocked, and it comes with a 1 year warranty. so there is no need worry people.

In addition, Starlink has been providing excellent services on Showtime, Nokia mobiles, Blackberry, Qtel services, and they are the best in terms of price and service.

no they didnt announce it officially, they announced the 3G prices not the 3GS. I suggest checking the facebook group again.

I don't lie, and I'm telling you now, the prices weren't even decided internally!
