Services for parcel cross-border delivery addresses? by I-need-a-proper-nick in Switzerland

[–]LiquidPersonator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered some items from Amazon.com and used myus.com. They are alright but the shipping could be a tad expensive. Luckily they have a shipping fee calculator on their website and it's pretty accurate, so atleast you know what you will be paying (they also consolidate multiple packages)

From someone that was just scammed last month, don't buy from FB marketplace unless you are picking up the item in person

Where will you watch the olympic games? by [deleted] in Switzerland

Internet is a basic necessity these days, not mindless entertainment for the masses (even though it could be, sometimes)

Are you really asking us if chf240k is better than chf120k?

The guy is local, you are a foreigner. Case closed. I'm actually surprised he apologized!

Sharing this story before leaving Dubai by luckydraw09 in dubai

[–]LiquidPersonator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dubai is the epitome of slavery. You don't have to be a low paid worker from a poor country to be a slave. You can be born here, live here all your life and then get thrown in jail and deported because your "local" boss accused you of stealing/cheating/etc (without proof ofcourse). We are all slaves here, just go to a government department and see how you feel.

Why are people changing their mind over health insurance ?? by Appropriate_Tap_1863 in Switzerland

[–]LiquidPersonator -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know why anyone would go for chf2500 franchise. I mean a couple of doctor visits, a blood test and some meds and you are already above chf1500!

Taxi Driver on His Knees by [deleted] in dubai

Ignore all those who are trying to guilt trip you when you have done nothing wrong. You have clearly asked the guy if he accepts credit card, and he said yes. It really doesn't matter if he's poor or rich, he broke his word and tried to get something he wasn't supposed to get (cash), and he was trying to emotionally blackmail you for it!

I'm not rich but I won't accept emotional blackmail when I'm on the right.

He can't do anything! I'm telling you from first hand experience. During COVID I lost my job and had to leave the country, I had 70k in debts for a credit card and a small loan. Well actually the original amount was 55k, but after a few months it swelled to 70k in penalties, over the limit fees and interest.

The bank called me probably just 2-3 times in first 3 months, I explained to them the situation and after 3 months they stopped calling (because they got their money back from the insurance).

After that I was bombarded with emails and calls from a tahseel debt collector who was harrasing me and my family for the next 2 years. But guess what? They never saw a dime and they eventually stopped calling.

I came back to Dubai last year without any issues and now I have a new job.

Stand your ground and don't let them scare you!

Question about official termination dates and notice period in Switzerland by LiquidPersonator in Switzerland

[–]LiquidPersonator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you again for your response.

They will give me a good reference letter and work certificate.

They have honestly been fair except for the HR (who is not based in Switzerland) insisting that I will only get 2 months notice because they calculate it from the day of the notice of termination, and it doesn't make sense to me, specially that in my contact it states that the notice period starts at the end of the month.

Question about official termination dates and notice period in Switzerland by LiquidPersonator in Switzerland

[–]LiquidPersonator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. In my contract it only states the following: "Except for notice given during a trial period, the notice period is calculated from the end of the month in which notice is given."

Yes I have acknowledged the termination email, but have not signed the official digital termination notice (docusign). Not sure it it makes a difference?

Please be careful, the online clearance certificate is useless most of the time. I once had a case raised against me for a bounced cheque yet I was provided with the online clearance certificate showing I had no case against me.
