STC – Galaxy SII Offer
If there is a phone device that I would like to buy for my own use, I would choose and iPhone and an Android Phone. Good to report that according to STC site, STC is offering a Galaxy SII for a discounted amount. As of this writing I saw in different advertisement on road that Galaxy SII (Open Line) cost about SAR 2,600+ at Jarir Bookstore.
STC gives two options for their customers, first is 149 fixed monthly and the other one is SAR 249 fixed monthly payment.
Customers will receive a credit-free prepaid SIM card and 5 GB of free internet monthly (offered for 3 months).

The customer will also enjoy an extra free package which consists of a 200 minute voice call, 200 minute video call, 200 SMS, 200MMS, and 250 MB of Internet. (Total of SR 3,417)

Different STC Sale Center in Riyadh :
I still need to clarify if we can use our old numbers.
Yup. I am thinking to use it in future with my own domain name, currently just experimenting with blogspot.
I went to STC to buy an iPhone 4 with post paid plan and they refused to give me after one hour wait.
Your post paid account has no history of such a huge budget (249SR/month)
I don’t know if they give Samsung Galaxy SII to anyone else except Saudi
@Yasir Imran,
Oh.. that’s not good.. perhaps if you could provide them proof of payment or you are a previous STC account holder it will not be a problem
@Best of Riyadh,
I am a previous pre-paid subscriber. One of my Pakistani friend also tried that, he was a post-paid subscriber and his monthly total for past few months was averaging 200. Yet STC refused to give him iPhone4 with 249/monthly post paid package. They didn’t write this condition on any advertisement , website etc. I must say this is the most stupid policy I ever seen.
@Yasir Imran,
Sad to know about this, I have some friends here in the office that was approved for the lower option of iPhone
@Yasir Imran,
BTW I have seen your site doing good in the SERP. Keep it up 🙂
@Best of Riyadh,
Well I have few sites related to Saudi Arabia some way. If you allow me links here, here they are.
