UAE residents can make unlimited international calls. Here's how

Etisalat announced a new international calling plan for all fixed-line home customers. The new Unlimited International Calling plan will have wide appeal in the UAE as it enables expats to remain in touch with their friends and family back home.
The new plan works with any of Etisalat's current home phone services, including all eLife services. Customers simply subscribe to the pack, priced at Dh150 per month and can then make unlimited international calls to a preferred country of their choice. Customers simply choose from a list of 64 countries, calls can then be made to any mobile or fixed line number in that country.
While subscribing to the calling plan, customers can continue to make calls to all countries other than the selected country under the normal standard rates. The plan offers the convenience to directly dial the international numbers from the home phone without the hassle of entering long calling-card numbers. There are also no contractual obligation for customers, who have the ability to discontinue or resume the plan at any point of time as their needs change.
Khaled ElKhouly, Chief Consumer Officer, Etisalat said: "The new 'Unlimited International Calling Plan' is another example of how we are constantly evolving our services to meet the growing needs of our customers in the country. The new unlimited international calling plan means customers can keep in touch with their loved ones for a convenient price from the comfort of their home."
In a separate confirmation to Khaleej Times, the telecom provider said that the offer is different from another similar plan run by Etisalat in the past. Several surfers have pointed out that this is actually a plan rolled out in 2016. The telco has clarified that this is a new plan launched on Monday.
Etisalat's existing and new eLife customers can avail the benefits of the new 'Unlimited International Calling Plan'.
