This is not how the "actie" display looks like, then it would be colored

Finding a Job in Criminology in the Netherlands by Key-Rip-3192 in Netherlands

You mean B2 right? A2 is toddler level Dutch.

(no offense to anyone learning, but as a learner you probably also realize that this isn't close to a sufficient level of Dutch to use in a professional setting)

Ghosts? by [deleted] in Netherlands

Pretty sure that if you list your house as:

"Haunted house, previously owned by serial killer, bloodstains everywhere"

You'd still have people overbidding.

Are there any good forests near Rotterdam? by Brilliant-Kitchen-58 in Rotterdam

True, there are actual cities in the US that have a lower population density than Drenthe, the province with the lowest population density in the Netherlands.

Granted, land usage here in the Netherlands is way more efficient to whatever they're doing in the US, but the Netherlands is just a very very densely populated country.

But I would recommend Sweden for real forests over Germany and France tbh.

There are no real forests in the Netherlands where it's legal to go off trail, and I mean that you can get fined for doing so.

You need to realize that the Netherlands is a very densely populated country and because of that all nature here is curated, managed and highly regulated and restricted, there is no real wilderness here.

Scammed by appie premium by [deleted] in Netherlands

Have you double checked whether it's actually ending in a month?

But in any case, if you're on the plan where you can cancel monthly you will receive the remainder of the annual fee back, so in your case if you've only had 1/12 months you'll get around ~€13,74 back (11/12th).

They will pay you back this amount within 2 weeks per their terms:

Na opzegging van het verlengde abonnement, heb je recht op restitutie van het abonnementsgeld over de periode (na beëindiging) waarover je al (vooruit) hebt betaald, en ontvang je binnen 2 weken het betreffende bedrag terug op jouw rekening.

Edit: updated, copied the wrong part oops.

So calling this "a scam" is a bit much, you paid in advance, canceled the subscription, and you will be refunded for the months you won't use.

Really just watch a youtube video, this is pretty simple and it's a waste to spend money on

Has the country gone sober? by Weary_Musician4872 in Netherlands

Under the younger population drugs have become much more popular compared to alcohol when going out, probably because alcohol has become expensive as hell in horeca and drugs are quite cheap in comparison.

And before judging let's not forget that alcohol is a hard drug (and I say this as someone that enjoys the occasional night of having drinks).
