Hopefully it’s not a huge problem. But many people are reporting that their STC bills are inaccurate. That’s due to the fact that STC is upgrading their ancient billing system and with that upgrade they will start releasing bills by the end of this month.
The initial rumors were that STC has lost the customer data during the upgrade, but let’s hope they are smarter than that.
Here is one of many Twitter messages about it: “Believe it or not #STC lost its Data, I just called them and my old bill is exactly the same with my new bill, how com??”.

Im filipino and suffered this problem from STC..just for 3 months I received a bill of more than 3258 riyals. and the maximum charge per month is 399. and besides my credit limit is only 1 thousand riyals. So, how come i entitled to pay the 3258 riyals now. and besides the STC is discontinued their service already in our phone line and yet we are continuously paying for the Bill. We went to STC Customer service they said to us they can not do anything about that and we must pay the bill instead or else this will continue to rise.
How can i solve this problem because i feel hopeless and going back and forth to the STC Office here in Taif because the discrimination is too high and if we insist of asking how to solve the problem we receive harsh treatment. My Telephone # 027326349.
Anybody can help me from here! thank you very much guys.

Regarding the inaccurate billing of my telephone line. Which im being charge of SAR 3258 just for 3 months and STC inform us that we are being billed for two lines despite of the disconnection of the other line.
I went last night to STC Taif-Branch and i met Abdulla Aldossary and he told me i need to pay first the bill of 3258 riyals before they can entertain my complaint or before the Telephone line will be disconnected otherwise if I don’t pay my unpaid bill the payment will continue to rise. What option am going to take now to stop my bill because STC customer service inform me that there is no way to stop the bill until i pay the remaining amount. What logic is that am continuously paying the bill despite the disconnection of Telephone and DSL service. I hope the STC will put section in their branches just to hear the grievances and complaints of their subscribers. Just yesterday i already paid 1258 Riyals and Ihave still 1981 riyals unpaid bill. I forced to borrow money from my friend with interest just to solve this problem. We have no option left but to pay the bill. 027326349

I got also this Free Internet SIM from Jarir Bookstore (riyadh) when I bought my new laptop last May2009.… Today I checked my phone bill online and I was suprised to find out that I have a bill of 3,439 SR for this internet SIM, I haven’t used this SIM…. because it’s already deactivated last July 2009! Also I dont receive any bill details. Why am I charge of this amount? The charge per month is 350 also noted that my credit limit is only 1 thousand riyals. So, how come i end up to pay the 3,439 riyals?
As usual I didnt get any reply from STC customer service until today! I thought I’m the only one having this issues with STC billing..is there anybody from this forum got this problem resolve? Please help advise me what to do?

hi verde, let STC disconnect your line and move over to mobily or zain
why should you pay for something you didn’t use?
why should you suffer for their mistake…
you can always have your mobile & broadband wireless Internet

Assalam Alaikum!!!!!!!!!
STC is doing worse of me. My DSL rate per month is only 160 riyals but when I saw the bill of 800 something, I was shocked like hell and could do nothing…. If the STC was having upgrading problem so y should we suffer for their problem and y should we waste our hard-working money…. The STC should be Boycotted for this non sense kind of work…………
BOYCOTT STC
