can't say I have experienced issues with the sms services. That said, teething problems cannot be used as an excuse for the degraded services... I am still reluctant to switch service providers but patience is running thin!! for now, I will just spectate.

hi all, I. have been with the network ever since it was celtel. Actually, the switch to celtel was a big motivator, seeing as am a big fan of the underdogs. Connection to their customer care was always between 3 - 5 min tops....up until Airtel bought out Zain!!!
I too have experienced the 'localized' network outtages but only for
the
data-services which quickly turned to trash as soon as Airtel took over. I can't wait for another company to take over ... hopefully Zain can make a comeback now that Arab countries are making huge strides in the economic sphere :-) .
