Du on Saturday announced new data packages for customers travelling aboard. The company’s new bundles, available for both individual and business customers, substantially increase the daily allowances for daily, weekly and monthly roaming plans.

Customers can now purchase a one day roaming plan for just Dh35 will receive 750MB, those who purchase a weekly roaming plan for Dh200 will receive 2GB, and those who purchase a one month roaming plan for Dh500 will receive 8GB. The plans are available for 90 destinations, including travel hotspots such as UK, USA, Italy, France and Egypt. To sign up for roaming options, postpaid customers can SMS “data” to 5102 to view the available data bundles. Prepaid customers have roaming already active on their lines by default and will have a quick recharge feature on the du app, where they can recharge with their credit cards without logging into their accounts.

“Data roaming peaks in July, and we have taken the lead by responding to our individual and business customer needs. We carefully designed a flexible and manageable plan that protects customer minds and pockets when they travel for business or pleasure, around the GCC and beyond,” said Fahad Al Hassawi, Chief Commercial Officer, du.
