It would be useful to have a AED account Dubai just so that payments can be made easily if needed. But I have found it difficult to open an account over there. Barclays have been particularly unhelpful !

I think HSBC are better but you need to have an account in the UK with them and they also need it to be active for a few months.

NBD look like they will be do a Savings Account for non-residents. I am inquiring with them now.

NBD are good but how flexible I don't know. You could try Mashreq bank.
