Access to a high-speed Wi-Fi connection in the United Arab Emirates is now available for $ 2.5.
UAE residents can take advantage of the more flexible Wi-Fi UAE tariff options from du. The Premium plan allows you to connect to a high-speed connection at 400 points across the country for 10 dirhams ($ US 2.7).
Jihad Tayara, vice president of business development and partnerships, said: "With the ever-increasing number of new users, we are updating our pricing to meet their requirements. In this spirit, we will conduct a 3-month promotion with our WiFi packages. Our free Wi-Fi "Fi will continue to offer a reliable internet connection, but now users will have the choice to take advantage of the flexible Wi-Fi packages that will offer high-speed internet access for all online activities."
Launched in 2015, Wi-Fi UAE is built on the freemium model. The project offers two types of access. The first is free access, but with a limited speed; and the second is Premium WiFi, which offers high-speed access for a certain payment. Now, with the introduction of a new pricing, it will be possible to pay for access for 1, 3 and 10 days, which provides greater flexibility and allows you to use the Internet if necessary.
10 dirhams will cost a connection for 4 hours during the day, 25 dirhams ($ US 6.8) for 12 hours during a 3-day period and 50 dirhams ($ 13.6) for access for 32 hours within 10 days.
Du's Wi-Fi hotspots are available in public areas such as Dubai Metro and Tram, shopping malls, Emaar Boulevard, Downtown Dubai and Global Village. They provide fast and free access to all government sites and applications. All that is needed to access the WiFi premium service is the UAE’s mobile phone number and a device that supports Wi-Fi.
