DUBAI 20 February 2019: Du, from Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (EITC), has doubled broadband speeds for all new and existing Triple Play Home customers, permanently at no extra cost.

Fahad Al Hassawi, Deputy CEO – Telco Services, said: “Du is committed to delivering what our home customers demand: faster broadband, personalized TV content, all at the most competitive prices.”
