Re: Calling Dubai

Hi. My daughter lives in Dubai and I call her often. What is the cheapest way of doing this please?

MI5 · ‎26-09-2024

Using a VOIP service is the cheapest way.

Somewhat limited in Dubai but I found these services available https://www.goodfirms.co/it-services/voip/dubai

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

@Dido53 Although you can't use WhatsApp to make video or voice calls in Dubai, you can still send messages which you can do over a WiFi connection for free.

Take a look at this link for workarounds: WhatsApp Ban in Dubai [What You Need to Know in 2024 ] (cloudwards.net)

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2

Not sure if that's "approved" either @gmarkj
