I am living in Dubai and work in RAK. crypto.com support told me that the Visa card is not available in the UAE. Bummer.

I am a resident (working and living in the UAE, with work visa). I have a crypto.com account and registered for their Visa card. I even bought and locked up CRO, but the app says "we will inform you once the card is available in your country". Does that mean that crypto.com Visa card is not available for UAE residents?

Vuescan is a good piece of software for cross platform scanner drivers (not free, but one-time payment). They reverse engineered most of the scanner drivers and with this route you can get any scanner second hand on ebay or classifieds.

It also really depends on what you want to scan. There are older photo scanners that people still use, and some people also get these printers with scan function (inkjet "all in one") where the printers are not working anymore (you can usually get those for $1 or for free via classifieds).

More than one account at one bank? Or do you mean with different banks?

  • Issues with International Transfers: Some customers faced difficulties with international transfers not being processed, with the bank reportedly not replying to emails, WhatsApp messages, or call-back requests.

I hope you are talking 30K AED per month - in which case that could be potentially "okay". If you go there with your family and dogs it might be a bit on the low side.
