So yesterday I was kinda pissed that I forgot my phone in Dubai but now I am actually enjoying it. It’s been a peaceful day so far and although I should be getting my phone back tomorrow via DHL I think I am going to keep it turned off and see how long I can last without it. If I want a pager (beeper) can I still get one here in Kuwait?

Just use that option where ur phone is on but it’s actually off and you receive an sms telling you who called and thought ur phone is off…erm, I got busted though
i thought that only wataniya got this option.. does it work on Zain (MTC)
yeah its called the Miss U service
I thought missU is for when ur phone is actually off. can u set it to always appear off even though ur phone is on?
yes u can Holla (Divert all voice calls –> 9690999)
on wataniya divert all vioce calls to 6300333
but in roaming (out of kuwait) if u divert all your voice call to the pager pluss or miss u you will be charged for this
even u can cancel the waitting on ur phone and divert ur calls if bussy so that if u had a call and some body call u it will be switched off
I guess that you can still get one here because i know some people who still use a beeper !
I saw some doctors at the Amiri hospital using pagers about a year ago but I’m not sure if they still offer them for individuals
I also heard that Kuwait oil companies employers still do use them, but I’m not certain about this one.
yes doctors still use them, and we still use them (KNPC and all oil sector engineers)you can still get a pager.. but it’s really useless.. we only use them because we are not allowed to use cell phones in the field.. so if anyone needs us they page us..
