They blamed it on the UAE regulator, and said it'd be ok if I had a mortgage. Uh, well, ok.

Thanks! I'm pretty ok. Living in Tanzania now. Decided Geneva was just too dull... Got 3 working limbs and a shitty old car. Whohoo. Hope you're good, and glad to see the UAE flag is still flying. Yes, the bloody huge one.

Once the Tanzanians sort out my residency, I'll drop by Dubai for a proper visit. Someone let me know where the cool kids drink these days.

I'd guess that there are a lot less banks willing to do this now than those willing to do it. And forget any international bank with US operations.

Keep the money in USD or GBP in an offshore account in the IOM. You'd be mad to transfer it to AED and store it locally.

I had a savings account with debit card with NBAD while not having a resident's visa for several years but did own a property in Dubai. I had to switch to them when Barclays closed down and they were OK. Of course you can transfer money in and out of your account. I was with the MOE branch - used to be queues though.

if this is true that means when we revive international payments there wont be any fees, arrives in seconds

Your employers at NBAD will not be impressed with this kind of poor promotion and I will bring it to the attention of very senior staff if you don't stop. This pathetic attempt at advertising is also contrary to UAE Central Bank rules so stop it now.
