Moving from Canada to Dubai (UAE) - will this work?

Post by Paz7 »

Hi there - I am moving from Canada to Dubai (UAE) and would like to keep my existing Canadian mobile number, primarily for incoming texts (for 2FA) and occasional inbound calls. If I port my number to Fongo, would this work in UAE?

If it will work: assume I’d pay a port-in fee (which is fine) - then what are the charges thereafter?
