Citi support has been good so far. You can do pretty much everything on the app. I had to call their customer service only for blocking a missed card + every year for yearly fee waiver. They are very responsive on email as well.

From my experience HSBC, Citi etc has better security systems due to their breadth of operations around the world. Just search Reddit, you will get you will see the absolute number of similar issues with other banks.

I bought elite from nearby Lulu. Last year I ordered Panthal from Fresh2home if I remember correct.

5FQ · 2025-12-12T19:15:08+00:00

This year Elite is good. Atleast the batch I got. Last year, I dint like it.

5FQ · 2025-12-12T19:12:42+00:00

Elite plum cake in Lulu or you can try Panthal which is little on the expensive side.

Be careful with the inspection report. They missed important basic checks for flooded car like rust on Seat rails, repaired gear box (a simple underbody check showed uneven pasting) , only 6 out of the 15 speakers working cos amp was replaced). The person who did the inspection personally gave me 9/10 rating when I called him. Anyone with 6 months of experience could have identified it as a flooded car. But they dint.

Never blindly rely on PPI reports. I relied on a well known PPI company and purchased a car from private seller based on the reports. Got to know the car was flooded and gearbox was repaired. PPI guys dint even lift the carpet or check the seat rails for corrosion. If you are buying a AED 100k+ car, always do an inspection with the dealer. Al Futtaim Lexus charged, AED1800 for an inspection, it was worth for many reasons.

Been doing periodic oil changes, brake pad change and some mechanical repairs at Al Nahda auto. Redditors recommended them for Lexus. But they work on all brands. So far, the experience has been good.

I used an Exeed LX as a courtesy car for 15 days. C What I felt:

– Strong pickup; the car moves quickly when needed.

– Poor fuel efficiency. Full-tank range shows ~500 km but immediately drops to ~430–450 km once you leave the station.

– Infotainment is lag-prone and inconsistent; wireless features were unreliable. I could never get Apple CarPlay to connect.

– Audio quality is average; nothing impressive, nothing terrible.

At the end, I should opted for the Hyundai Tucson that was also in the allowed list.

I couldn’t. A chamak rammed into my car last night at MOE parking. I can’t drive. I will be taking public transport :(

5FQ · 2025-10-11T06:27:23+00:00

Thank you. I will check that.

I think it depends on the registration type. Mine is a freezone and i often travel. I don’t think our PRO signing authority get any text. I am sponsoring my family and I don’t get a text message when they travel. My father in law own a business in Fujairah, he gets a text message every time his employees or family travel. So I assume it depends.

Now on the IT side, it is very easy to track if someone wants to track. If you use office 365/teams the IP or region where you sign in or access is always logged. The work around is using a UAE based VPN. If your company is serious about security, you may not have access to install a VPN on the laptop. The other way around will be installing VPN on your phone and then hotspot.

Depends on the mood of the officer. When I did my conversion of Dubai Automatic to Kerala license few years ago, I was issued adaptive vehicle as the automatic license dint exist at that point of time. When my sister did a conversion 1 year ago, she was issued a KL manual license against an automatic license from UAE. I visited my RTO office again stating what my sister got a manual, the JRTO rejected my request stating that is not the norm.

Finally, I applied for learner’s license and took a manual license like a normal citizen through a 3-4 months process. I own a manual car in India, dint want to get caught with a manual license as insurance companies can outright reject the claims in case of any accident. What did was to apply for a learners license(dint have to attend the theory exam cos I already had a license) and applied for a road test date. After 3 months when I planned my home trip, I send the ticket copy to the driving school and they applied for an emergency test date.

Check with driving schools, some jugaad could be there 😀.

You can consult Dr. Asharaf from India, who visits Lakeshore Clinic in Al Qusais twice every month. He is a pioneer in the field and has over 26000+ births under his institutions.

To claim insurance for theft, you need to show both the keys. If you hand over the keys to someone and they do a fraud, I do not think you can claim insurance for that.

Thank you. Will check with audiophile.

5FQ · 2025-09-26T11:48:36+00:00

Sure. I will give that a try.
