This topic explains why FREEDOME VPN does not work in the United Arab Emirates and other Persian Gulf area countries.
Symptoms
The FREEDOME VPN app cannot connect to any of the FREEDOME VPN servers when the device is in the following Persian Gulf area:
- Bahrain
- Iraq
- Kuwait
- Oman
- Qatar
- Saudi Arabia
- United Arab Emirate
At first the VPN connection may be successful but it stops working soon after that.
Diagnosis
The use of VPNs is not allowed in the Persian Gulf area. The local internet service providers block VPN connections in their networks. This prevents FREEDOME VPN from working.
Solution
For the above reason, we cannot solve this issue.
