ABU DHABI 3 April 2018: Etisalat announced that it has further reduced its roaming rates for voice calls, SMS and data.
Starting from 1 April, Etisalat’s prepaid and post-paid customers will enjoy discounted roaming rates of up to 29 per cent on data, outgoing voice calls to UAE, GCC and local destinations and outgoing SMS while traveling to any Gulf Cooperation Council countries through any roaming partner.
The new rates are introduced in coordination with the Telecom Regulatory Authority (TRA) to encourage roaming services within the GCC at affordable rates.
Customers can also choose to subscribe to any data and combo roaming packages, offering non-stop roaming data usage in more than 100 countries for as low as Dh35 per day.
Customers can view and purchase from Etisalat’s wide range of roaming offers by simply dialling *177# (for free within UAE or abroad), or using the Etisalat UAE mobile app, where they can also view the standard roaming rates and list of preferred partners.
Etisalat has an extensive coverage of almost 730 international outbound roaming networks in 213 countries. To enhance customer’s data experience, Etisalat expanded its 4G LTE partners to 291 networks in over 120 countries, enabling subscribers to take advantage of the high-speed mobile data offered on 4G networks while browsing the Internet outside the UAE.
