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.

Porting a number to or from du (MNP)

Steps

1. Make sure the number is active, Emirates ID valid, and no outstanding dues on the current line.
2. Get a new SIM/eSIM from the operator you are joining and submit the port request there.
3. Do not cancel the old line yourself first - that kills the port.
4. Expect a short outage window during the swap; keep both phones charged and the account number to hand.
5. For fixed lines and home internet, porting is not the same process - book the new install before you disconnect.

Data exhausted: what happens next and how to stop the shock

Steps

1. Check the exact behaviour in your plan terms - "unlimited" tiers often throttle after a fair-use point.
2. Add a data add-on rather than letting the line fall to out-of-bundle rates.
3. Enable per-app data limits for social/video on phones that share hotspot.
4. On tablets/laptops, background updates over hotspot are the usual silent drain.
5. Set a usage alert at 70% so the add-on decision comes before the cap.

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.
