I am going to Dubai next month and it’s not one of your roaming destinations. How do you suggest I make and receive calls while there? Should I buy a PAYG card while out there? Thanks

Hello @mjmj2392,

You mat best off getting a local SIM card when there as the rates are expensive and you’d hit your cap very quickly.

iD Mobile have roaming partners in Dubai (part of the United Arab Emirates), but it’s quite expensive.

Maybe use WhatsApp with Wi-Fi for calling and messaging while you’re in Dubai.
