Default Very Hefty Data Roaming charges in Dubai

Please Login to Remove!

The national carrier Etisalat charges approx US$5.50 for 10kb of data minimum. So even if u download data 2-3kb they levy this minimum charge, whihc translates to US$5,50 per email. I ended up paying almost US$80 per day for each of the 4 days I was there. Apparently even when the BB logged on to the server to check for emails, I was charged $5,50 which was several times a day. Any comments, observations, advice ?
