The Emirates Identity Authority has provided
a new innovative channel to communicate
with its customers through “Skype”. Emirates
ID has also officially authenticated its account
on the social media website ‘Twitter’. The ac-
count is now a reliable source for all informa-
tion related to the Authority, its activities and
services, and is protected against piracy and
fraud. Emirates ID pointed out that with the
new ‘Skype’ service, the number of communi-
cation channels available for customers has
reached 14. The move is in line with Emirates
ID’s keenness to allow its cus-
tomers direct communication
channels and enable them to
lodge their feedback, sugges-
tions and complaints through
their preferred means, and thus
ensure provision of easy and
streamlined services to them.
Emirates ID pointed out that
‘Skype’ service, accessible un-
der “EmiratesID_skype”, is a
24/7 service that will be avail-
able to customers and the pub-
lic inside and outside the UAE
in Arabic and English. Other
languages will be gradually
added based on periodic as-
sessment of the service.
The Telecommunications Regulatory Au-
thority (TRA) hosted a coordination meet-
