MyTones proving popular

Qtel's MyTones service, launched last month, is proving to be a huge hit with customers. Over 110,000 customers have already purchased some 200,000 tones. Arabic and Islamic tones are proving to be the most popular, especially those by artists Mohamed Abdo, Samy Youssef, Amr Diab and Elissa.

With MyTones, each call is a unique experience. Qtel's customers have embraced this service as a way to express themselves and keep their callers entertained. MyTones service allows customers to play various music, poetry and comedy clips to their callers, keeping them entertained as they wait for their call to be answered. Customers can dial 9002424 from their mobile phone to access the MyTones service at a cost of QR1 per minute and each MyTone costs QR5 per month.

"The incredible market response and customer feedback is very satisfying", said Sheikh Fahad bin Jassim Al Thani, Qtel's COO.

"Customers are always seeking services that they can customize to match their personalities and MyTones does just that. They are also keen to see which MyTones their friends have selected." Link
