To sign up for roaming options, postpaid customers can SMS “data” to 5102 to view the available data bundles. They can easily activate roaming within the 90 destinations, including travel hotspots such as UK, USA, Italy, France and Egypt, all countries where du customers consumed more than 1 TB in July last year. du offers business users always-on roaming, ensuring constant connectivity and seamless country-specific data roaming irrespective of operator. We recommend our customers download the du app, choose their destination and the correlating bundle will appear where they can monitor their usage – a convenient and amazing experience!

Activating data roaming is simple, just dial *135*20# for free and follow the instructions on the menu. There is no more waiting in queues, purchasing local SIM cards, or depending on Wi-Fi passwords to stay connected.
