Explanation
In the UAE, postpaid plans are offered by several telecommunication providers, including Du, Etisalat, and Virgin Mobile. These plans are convenient and hassle-free. At the beginning of every month, you receive an agreed-upon amount of local calling minutes, data, and depending on your package, international calling minutes. Everything is paid for at the end of the month with a single debit order.
