How responsive is DU's customer service?

Very poor 🤒
We don't know much about how DU handles customer complaints outside ComplaintsBoard, but what we see here, on our website, is quite disappointing. We think there might be reasons for the company's actions (like not knowing about the complaints), and we would be happy to see them among customer-focused businesses that easily solve customer problems. But until that happens, we ask reviewers to be cautious when dealing with DU and using their services, and to carefully read the experiences of other customers on ComplaintsBoard, because who is warned is armed, you know! 💪

DU number activation

Dear Team,
Greetings from Royal Class Tourism.
I am writing today to complain of the poor service I received from your company. Our company Royal Class Tourism has enterprise plan of Du. We requested to add one more number [protected] last month. As a new company we were unaware of procedure and we were told from your representatives so submit some documents with signatures to add number.
After submission of required documents we didn't get any response from your company. We called the representative but our calls were not attended. Then all of sudden it was bring to our notice that number needs to be bio metric for activation and they need finger prints .
As the sim was concerned with our CEO who stayed for 12 days in Dubai to activate the sim but no one contacted rather misguided us. When he left country for business trip we received call regarding bio metric. Due to negligence of your representative its causing trouble.
I trust this is not the way that your company wishes to conduct business with valued customers. And this is not the first time I am facing such negligence from your company it happened before but regarding billing issue. Highly disappointed with your services.
Kindly tell me way now to activate the number before he returns. I want to solve this problem as soon as possible.
I am waiting for your response
Thanks & Regards,

Ikra Javed

DU du home service

I applied for a new home service 10 days ago (account number 1.[protected]) technician visited on 2nd May 2019 and installed the router and I was told within 24 hours the service will be activated but today is 6th of May but the service is not yet activated.

I made numerous calls to customer service and every time I was told that the matter is escalated to technical team and it will be resolved.

Kindly let me know where I can approach as customer service is not connecting me to any technical team or their superior to speak with, overall service is very disappointing.

Regards,
Habeeb

DU canceling contract

Everything was good with du, until I decided I want to cancel my contract. All the good services I enjoyed in my 20 months period were totally outside the window. Unbelievable mentality, when breaking the contract it feels they are taking revenge in a harsh way... And anytime they are cornered they will pretend that it's the system-as if system is god! Hidden costs will start to show up, they don't approve anything said by any other du agent at any period especially the beginning of the contract. To du, canceling the contract is a crime! I kept all the payment in account for the cancelation process, and waited for 5 days with no action. And everytime I have to talk with new agent and explain myself again!
Thumb down

DU du online shop

Please note that i have purchased the sim online on 24th April, Wednesday.
the payment from the credit card was done at the same time and later on i received the statement also from the bank about the deduction of the 52.5 AED for the sim purchase from du eshop.
but as of now i have not received any single message confirming my shopping from du yet.
despite of several calls to customer care, emails, fb chat and online support chat, i have not received any sufficient answer from du except the suggestion of wait or visit to DU head office.

Its 4th day of the purchase, but as of now i am still on the same point having no single message of order. Du customer care representative have not even any information and they told me everytime that they can not track anything as they do not have any information related to my shop and the final answer i get from them either wait or visit to du office.

If i have the time to visit du, why should i have been ordered online?
now the situation is just to recover 52.5 AED from du, i need to pay more amount to taxi as the du office is far from my residence. Then what is the use of online shop?

DU fixed service

I had requested a Du connection immediately after moving over to a new flat in Ajman. I had been waiting for more than a week to have their technician install the same. I made numerous calls to the Du team. Every time they just give promises. Even if we request for a call back they do not make it a point to return a call. Is Du a synonym of No action. I am very much disappointed. Du team does not value their customers time. If by any chance, we default their payment in no time they will disconnect the service. I could see only the disconnection happens timely nothing else happens at all.Do not know what to do.

DU customer service

Submitted my connection relocation request on 29th of March, was expecting to get a call during next 48 hours, nothing happened.

Called them on the 4th day, was advised that technical team will get in touch with me during 48 hours. Got a call after 2 days and made an appointment for relocation on the next day at 1pm. At 1:30pm next day decided to call to check if they`re still coming and they informed that relocation isn`t possible as building has only Etisalat connection. After that I got message that my request for relocation was cancelled BY MYSELF!

When I realized that I`m supposed to cancel the contract, they were going to charge me for amount more than 600 aed even despite it`s not my fault that they can`t provide me a service. After 2 more days of thinking I gave a call to customer service again and asked if there`s no way to relocate the service at all, and only then I was advised to go to Customer Center and request for relocation there, they`re going to switch Du for Etisalat for FREE. I mean, why I`ve been advised only now?

I went same day with this request, they took a note and promised that technical team will contact me during next 24 to 48 hours. And guess what? After 72 hours was supposed to contact them by myself again. First the customer care representative couldn`t even find my request and advised me to send a new request for relocation. I was already getting mad as it was supposed to throw me for one week back to the beginning of the whole process. I insisted for him to contact management and got a promise that management team will get in touch with me during next 48 hours. Doesn`t it sound funny yet?

Meanwhile I got a message that bill already came for the previous month and I`ve been charged for the whole one, despite that due to Du service I didn`t have internet already for 2 weeks.

Of course, after 48 hours I was supposed to call center again as no one got back to me still. Was already furious and complaining big time and gain was promised that I`ll get an urgent call very shortly, during 24 hours. After 24 hours again gave a call by myself. Again agent couldn`t find my request and informed that it was cancelled by myself. I mean... Really?! After digging deeper we found request, but as per recent updates, relocation will not be complimentary, as was promised before, now I need to pay extra 100 AED for it. Now I`ve been promised that manager will follow up personally and I`ll get a call during next 1 hour. Let`s see how it goes now, however after last 2 weeks of struggles I`m quite sure that I`ll be supposed just to cancel my connection and make sure that everyone`s aware of how DU values it`s customers.

DU customer care

I spoke to customer care on 155 about the reason why I have been deducted 23 AED for the data which I have never used.
But they kept on speaking that they can see on system
Data Section...
Data Section...usage between this to that
They told from 28 March to 1st April your data consumption costed this much.
I dont understand if really it is so, then you should be notified regularly about those minor charges on the same time as I was not having any data plan at that moment.
But instead of that, they consumed all of the available balance from the account and later on they are sending the details on request that on 1st April you got deducted for 23 AED.

Its good to quit Du services rather than wasting our time with such un professional customer care representatives

DU extremely bad service

Trying to cancel 4 numbers under the company name already one month. Customer care counter is sending me to the account manager, account manager is sending me to business care department, business care department is simply ignoring my e-mails during two weeks. Even with authorization letter i have no chance to raise a complain, as per their policy i have to disturb company owner and he has to make a call personally. This is the worst service I'v ever met in my life.
All documents were sent to Enterprise Customer Care 17/03/19 and given to the Du counter on 05/03/19 Request 1_1UVVM8JA
Account number 6.171991

DU cancellation charges

My account number is 1.[protected], I used home basic light connection last two months, that I made agreement with agent 10 % discount for 1 year and cancellation charges, after I go for cancellation they said 349+37x10(remaining month) that I made contract and extra 350 dhs (because I used discount package)hidden charges, this is unfair, for the cancellation I called 2 or 3 times each customer service officers saying different amount, even they also don't know what is the exact amount, I will attached some screenshot shot too

To cancel DU Home connection is a task you all required patience why ?
If you call them most probably if you are lucky they will answer after 30 mins putting on hold, as they are assisting other customers. other wise it will continue till 1 hour, then you will get frustrated and cancel the call.
if an DU agent promise that the disconnection will happen in next 48 hours dont leave it like that, call them again( continue the process again calling hold for 30 to 1 hour )otherwise you will get another bill. I received my bill thanks.
now by luck you connect with them they will say the request we took initially is not for cancellation, this is the request for preparing the cancellation formalities. now call again for cancellation. you pay the money for not used for last month service and them call again ( Continue the Process again calling for 30 to 1 hour ).
so kind request to all those who would like to take service connect with your mental health consultant.

DU home internet & tv package

I am a new Customer & since more than 1 month I am waiting for the New Modem/Router which was supposed to delivered part of the new connection installation. DU Home Internet Services are very bad, my promised internet speed is 20 Mbps where as I am getting invariably 4 to 5 Mbps and the range & quality I fluctuating all the time. I got the YUPP TV Voucher after 1 month after too much hue & cry however I cannot use it due to the bad internet and it's hanging all the time.
Available channels in YUPP TV is very few whereas it should be 65+ channels.
I don't understand why they are advertising high speed internet + TV channels where as in reality it is not available. Customer service is also very poor, it seems nobody cares and they don't give any complaint refs or call backs. Any thoughts on how we can approach TRA for a solution.
