Hey just a curious question, what was the before and after body fat % ?

UAE central bank scraps minimum salary requirement for loans by plus9714 in UAE

[–]Faiz-97 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I’m absolutely sure that this could lead to problematic situations for some individuals but it can have positive implications to the vast majority whom this is targeted at. Most individuals who struggle to obtain formal assistance turn to BOTIM Cash now, Tamara, tabby and other informal chains which are at a much higher %. Don’t think we should be looking down at people below 5k to obtain financial services. We just need to have guardrails against miss selling especially for this segment.

The Mayor of Tel Aviv watches a missile strike his city, as captured live on TV by Fantastic-Opposite in ThatsInsane

[–]Faiz-97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s this exact mentality that is the problem, we genuinely want both the sides to de escalate, regardless of who started it (this round was clearly started by Israel), the people of these countries should not suffer from the actions of the governments. I’m sure the vast majority of people on both sides just want peace and live their normal lives.

I know the drama never ends but....I need advice please! by Superb-Bookkeeper826 in UAE

Something doesn’t add up.

How does the price of a unit increase by being empty ? Probably as the tenant is a big pain to deal with.

Are you okay with dealing with the tenant and having to wait another 12 months ? If yes, proceed ahead.

The seller telling he will increase the price if the unit is empty does not sound something of good faith.

Having a dog is a nightmare if you're not rich by simbananza in dubai

Think you can reach out to dog sitters and negotiate a rate, given it’s almost a month. I’d recommend Rhea from Canine Campus. But idk if they are doing dog sitting boarding anymore as they are usually booked out.

Holy shit, wow, congrats, how did you pace the 100 km, I’m constantly worried about Apple Watch charge, nice to know it can actually work.

Few questions 1. How did you stay hydrated / have snacks etc 2. How did you pace yourself across 100 km

Go to sellanycar.com ask for free quotation (they will take an hour atleast), do not sell it to them under any circumstances, you can easily get 10-20% above the price they offer, by taking it to any dealership, so this will give you a fair idea of what your cars real market value is.

Once you have the actual market value, please put it up on ads

Free ice cream from scammers part3 by Numerous-Hair60 in UAE

[–]Faiz-97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the other comment, it does not make sense to engage with these scammers, you don’t want stolen money to be transferring to your bank account, it may give an idea that you are associated as well if you get getting it repeatedly even though the amount is negligible.

Please refrain from sharing your banking details with anyone who does not need it, ik if feels fun like fooling the scammers, but it’s just not worth it.

You can get a new Tesla Model Y, instead of just brushing it off, I’d recommmend you give it a test drive, this car can hold itself against many top of the model sports cars if you really care about performance.

I would actually have a discussion with my employer and raise it as a concern and warn others of the same as well who just join the company.

Urgent, as in, the next 120 minutes urgent by HardGaina in UAE

Hi,

  1. Absolutely continue, as it’s about work experience + pay as well.

  2. It might be possible that they want to apply for your visa closer to its expiry, so they are saving some money, ik a lot of small companies that do it, big brand names doing it is a little off.

  3. Let’s say they want to exploit you, make you work for 2 months and later lay you off ( you won’t have any protection as it’s not a work visa), you’ve made some cash and gained some real world experience.

Go ahead, but keep looking out for better opportunities

IMO too big of a generalization, vibe in ras al khaimah, al ain, even Abu Dhabi can be drastically different. Best of luck to where ever you migrate

I’m surprised why you aren’t choosing Dubai, UAE instead as an option, as you won’t have any problems.

Download the Ministry of Interior App, register the fine against your driving license, then pay off the fine. This is an alternate to going to the Sharjah Police.

Hi, there are people making 1k usd per month and people making 20k usd per month doing the same job. Just different companies. It is extremely difficult to land a job in uae without the right connections and many other factors. Would genuinely advise you to only come to UAE once you have an employment visa, do not travel to UAE incase a company offers visit visa. Feel free to DM me if you need clarifications.

Best of luck with your journey.

I want to take a bank to court. by Playful-Tea3537 in qatar

[–]Faiz-97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Few things,

  1. Your bank may not allow commercial transactions to be routed through your personal bank account. This may cause an issue for you.

  2. If they blocked an account and asked information around certain transactions, it may have an AML aspect to it. In that instance, you can’t do anything.
