Doha: Running out of battery charge while shopping in a mall is something many people would have experienced. 

Worry no more if you are at Landmark mall! There is a charging machine to your rescue at the mall where you could charge your mobile paying a nominal fee.

There are 6 slots to keep mobiles for charging. 

You select a slot, enter a pin put required money and close. Then after charging is over only you can open the slot using the pin you entered.

The machine charges QR3 for 15 minutes of charging, QR6 for 30 minutes and QR12 for 1 hour. The machine accepts bank notes of QR1, 5 and 10 denominations. It is also mentioned that it doesn’t give back change

and QR1 will get you 5 minutes of charging.
