eSIM on du: setup in five minutes

Steps

1. Check the handset supports eSIM and is not carrier-locked.
2. In the du app, choose line > switch to eSIM (or buy an eSIM plan for a visitor).
3. Scan the QR in Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM; label the line (Work/Home).
4. Keep the old line active for the first hour in case activation needs a retry, then delete the old profile.
5. For travel, add the roaming or destination data pack before you fly, not at the gate.

Activating a new du SIM or line

Steps

1. Register with Emirates ID (residents) or passport (visitors) at a store, kiosk or through the app.
2. Insert the SIM, restart the phone, wait for the network SMS - that is the activation signal.
3. For a postpaid number transfer, complete the port request with the losing operator details.
4. If the phone shows "no service", test the SIM in another handset to separate device from line.
5. Visitors: a tourist line has a fixed life; extend or convert before it expires.

du home internet not working - the 5-minute check

Steps

1. Check the light pattern first: power, WAN/optical, Wi-Fi. Red optical = line fault, not a settings problem.
2. Restart once - unplug the router for 30 seconds, not 5, then wait 3 minutes for the ONT to re-register.
3. Look for a known outage in your area before touching settings (du app > support, or the status thread for your building).
4. If the optical cable or the small white ONT box was knocked (cleaning, moving furniture), reseat the blue-tipped fibre connector gently - never bend it.
5. Still red after a reboot? Open the du app and raise a fault so the ticket timestamp starts now; escalate to us on WhatsApp and we will chase the job number.

Checking du prepaid balance and data

Steps

1. Dial the balance code from the du line for credit, or use the app for data remaining.
2. For data-only bundles, the app shows the valid-until date, which is where most confusion sits.
3. Emergency credit and top-up behave differently by plan - check before relying on it.
4. Set an auto-renew or a low-balance alert so a hotspot does not die mid-download.
5. If the number looks wrong, refresh by restarting the phone - the balance cache is on the device.
