thanks for that MaaaD... I thought there were others besides Etisalat because many of my mates in dubai have quite dis-similar numbers !
What schemes do they have ?? Prepay, post-paid...and which is the most economical for someone like me who likes to talk a lot :oops:

They have both prepaid and postpaid. Prepaid is easier to get and costs about $165 dh and obtained with a copy of passport and visa stamp. Postpaid requires residency and a PO Box I believe. Most people just use prepaid.

*cough* skype.com *cough* and get your credits and software before you come.
Otherwise no such beast exists. Expect to pay 3 dh a minute which gets quite costly.
Otherwise, welcome to the world of Etisalat.
