i'd go with Wataniya, they have an internet service for 5 quid a month - not so sure about 4G

u embarrass me :$

www.wataniya.com www.zain.com www.viva.com.kw

the three providers in Kuwait - go nuts checking their websites and offers to know which package best suits u - however, note that they have been mentioned by order of seniority, wataniya being the most established and viva being the baby, hence prone to experiencing technical difficulties if u catch my drift.

Viva! Service is great. Never experienced anything dull..well except for my first try in registering a prepaid for mobile internet. The service ate my 3KD that I used for registering. But the service was good. It loads fast but depending on your mobile.

But if you'd go for postpaid, I think it's between Zain or Wataniya. Never heard any issues about it from my friends.
