Checking du prepaid balance and data
Steps
- Dial the balance code from the du line for credit, or use the app for data remaining.
- For data-only bundles, the app shows the valid-until date, which is where most confusion sits.
- Emergency credit and top-up behave differently by plan - check before relying on it.
- Set an auto-renew or a low-balance alert so a hotspot does not die mid-download.
- 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
- Make sure the number is active, Emirates ID valid, and no outstanding dues on the current line.
- Get a new SIM/eSIM from the operator you are joining and submit the port request there.
- Do not cancel the old line yourself first - that kills the port.
- Expect a short outage window during the swap; keep both phones charged and the account number to hand.
- 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
- Check the exact behaviour in your plan terms - "unlimited" tiers often throttle after a fair-use point.
- Add a data add-on rather than letting the line fall to out-of-bundle rates.
- Enable per-app data limits for social/video on phones that share hotspot.
- On tablets/laptops, background updates over hotspot are the usual silent drain.
- 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
- Check the light pattern first: power, WAN/optical, Wi-Fi. Red optical = line fault, not a settings problem.
- Restart once - unplug the router for 30 seconds, not 5, then wait 3 minutes for the ONT to re-register.
- Look for a known outage in your area before touching settings (du app > support, or the status thread for your building).
- 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.
- 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.
