After much Searching around i finally managed to find a person deep inside STC Bahrain who is going to be feeding me some much needed Information. My Source is well connected inside and i have no reason to doubt the Information that he is giving me.

ATM i don’t have much information about the packages or tariffs etc but i have been promised that it’ll be coming soon.

Numbering : STC Bahrain customers will have numbers starting with 33.

Pre Paid : STC will most probably be providing 3 different charging methods for Calls made via prepaid. They will be Per Second charge, Per 20 Seconds charges or Per Minute charges.

 USB Internet : STC Bahrain will have the highest listed speed on the USB Internet stick (e-go, o-net) a whooping of 21.1Mbps. In real life no one is going to get the mentioned speed due to network load etc.

Blackberry : Blackberry service along with handsets will be provided by STC.

3.5G Internet Router : STC Bahrain will provide a router that you pop-in a data sim card and it allows you to browse the Internet etc. Advertisement will say 21.1Mbps but the Router Only supports 7Mbps as opposed to their USB Stick which does support 21.1Mbps.

STC Call Center is outsourced to a company calles Silah (Prison Break anyone). Silah is a company originally from South Africa & London. 67% of Silah is owned by E-Government Authority, another 33 Percent is owned by The Merchants Group Limited which is a UK Based company. 20,000BD as the authorized capital out of which 13,400 is Local Investment and the remaining 6,600 is Outside Investment.

That is all i have for you guys, stay tunes more is coming.

Wow, good to hear all that. Hopefully they will start there services as earliest as possible and I wish, that there will be some plan for special discounting between Saudi to Bahrain over STC Network.

All I need is a stable internet connection so I can enjoy gaming without lag or disconnects and an unlimited internet so I can download those games in the first place and enjoy what I pay for…
God dammit is that too much to ask???
Bahrain sucks

where can i apply for Jobs at STC in Bahrain.

They are having problems with the site or the developers are not capable to handle the Job. 4 days of downtime is a huge disappointment. Whoever has STC hired to do the Website should be fired.
