eight has tablet plan?

I thought they have data only sim plan? There’s a banner at the bottom of their website. But I also noticed there’s no sign up button

can log-on to the local network in Dubai?
if so, it should not be an issue.
if no, then you are sh!t out of luck with eight coz Dubai is not in the list.
Please port out to Zym or Simba.

Let’s stir sh!ts up

 

[Epee]

I don’t quite understand their data plan. It’s essentially the same $8 plan with no talk and text And eSIM only. Why would people want this?

If use eSIM for iPad then cannot call nor text anyway. I understand that this plan is login with email address, not number.
