Mohammed Azab, UAE Area Manager - Dubai said, "The banking sector in the UAE is in a strong position and has made significant gains, thanks to strong oil prices and healthy economy. At Arab Bank, we have been working to ensure the availability of most effective services, taking into account the needs of our customers. By introducing additional features into our Visa credit card, our aim is to offer more value, high levels of reliability, and extra  

convenience for our customers. Amidst growing competition, we would like to position ourselves as the best in the industry, laying strong emphasis on better service and customer satisfaction." 

 

"The Triple Protection Program offered in association with Oman Insurance Company, enables Arab Bank cardholders to be automatically enrolled into the special insurance programme, designed to cover our customers against  

the unforeseen. The offer includes added features like purchase protection, travel accident insurance and credit shield. Furthermore, the exclusive special Discount & Privileges Program entitles our customers to a wide range of special offers and discounts at more than 190 outlets all over UAE" said Tareq Haj Hasan - Head of Retail Banking, Arab Bank, UAE. 

 

"In addition, we have also launched a series of travel related benefits in association with Al Naboodah Travel & Tourism to ensure a pleasant and hassle free travelling experience for our cardholders. As part of the new travel benefits, cardholders can book airline tickets over the phone by calling the Arab Bank Travel Line.
