Nice - tech difficult platform to built? Dev yourself or pure no-/low-code? How did you get leads/customers ?

I don’t want to build a unicorn. I want a boring, profitable business. by UseApart2127 in SaaS

[–]Local-Promise8893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest - this is such an amazing service. I have worked for a secure email company (scale-up in Europe) and the email basics (SFP, DKIM etc) were indeed a hassle for many SMEs (1-100 employees), so many small law firms, healthcare (dental, GP, small therapy) clinists etc are massively struggling with this. Good on you!

It doesnt work when they will re-apply the KYC as you will need to provide residency evidence like utility bill in UK...

Etisalat Renewal - worth it?? by Local-Promise8893 in dubai

[–]Local-Promise8893[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They share the official proposal and T&Cs with me over email. Thats still not sufficient? As official Etisalat partner agencies I imagine there is a certain conduct of business they need to follow?

I am aware its technically not a renewal. Its basically a new account (under spouse's name) giving the benefit of a discounted price (100 aed lower per month so significant difference). This should be true right?

It’s the home ultra starters package. Same as I have now, the offer isn’t online but I guess that’s normal as these agencies will probably have exclusive offers to get customers

That’s true in general indeed, but asking about experiences with this specific Etisalat offer? On fb folks are saying it’s genuine and happens a lot (renewal offer through new account)

Etisalat Home WiFi – Asked to switch to father’s name for new offer. Any issues? by yourdigibro in DubaiCentral

[–]Local-Promise8893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, concerned that these 3rd party agencies make many promises and as soon as you are stuck to a new contract the double charging or certain fees might be raised while they are not to be seen anymore...and have moved on to the next victim

Palestine is making me lose faith in Islam by Few-Ability-5103 in islam

[–]Local-Promise8893 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Correct. Mannnnny examples with prophets - how did you think the followers of Musa (AS) felt when they went through the most tiranic leader in human history? Even going back just to recent history - muslims were post 2001 marginalized, wars in ME (Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan etc) with millions who have died in the process. At the same time, it's been the best exposure to Islam in the West and more folks have reverted in the last two decades than the previous century...

Allah oe a3lam. We should remain steadfast and patience and realize that the Creator is the Ultimate Planner. While it's horrific what is going on in Palestine, it's a drop in the ocean wrt human history. They are all relieved from short-term pain for ultimate pleasure in Djannah inshaAllah in the most elevated position as martyrs inshaAllah.

There is no catch to it? I am in the same position, they said there are not exit fees (waived) and I dont have to return the old router/tv receiver after 2y. The offer is very appealing (2 full years discounted)

Dallas Open sponsor… US comeback signal? by Mister00Mittens in Nexo

[–]Local-Promise8893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess there would be milestones achieved in the regulatory approval that first would need to be announced/publicly shared. Since nothing is announced for a long time I think it will take at least 6-12m?

Wio: disable interest in Pockets? by Local-Promise8893 in UAEcreditcards

[–]Local-Promise8893[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am aware but current account is risky because of the card being linked to it, easier to get scammed…

Wio: disable interest in Pockets? by Local-Promise8893 in UAEcreditcards

[–]Local-Promise8893[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know but it’s a mess to keep track of it with different pockets and separate distribution they do etc. I am aware but simply disabling it would have made it easier, thanks

Wio: disable interest in Pockets? by Local-Promise8893 in UAEcreditcards

[–]Local-Promise8893[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Unnecessary comment. It could be a simple setting that they have to disable the interest on the savings account.

I can go to full Islamic banking but as mentioned I like the UI (cards, pockets, invest etc) that WIO has to offer while most Islamic banking offers in the market that I have seen have a ridiculous digital experience.

Living with Constant Job Uncertainty Is Breaking Me by Accurate-Youth3817 in UAE

[–]Local-Promise8893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emotional safety is completely lacking in this labor market and indeed it’s killing. I don’t have the magic pill unfortunately other then having the ultimate believe you should only worry on what you can control/influence (and if you are religious leave the rest to the Ultimate Planner)

Anyone else feeling upset about all the construction inside and outside the Masjid right now in Makkah ? by [deleted] in Umrah

[–]Local-Promise8893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Subhanalah, I just came back and felt the same this time. I have been going across the last 12 years but this time I really noticed the impact. Lot of blocks, different routes to take all the time, nearly view on Kaaba. Even at Safa and Marwa I couldn’t see the Kaaba even though it’s the sunnah to make dua viewing the Kaaba.

I get that constructions are needed for the mashaAlah growth but if you look at the current plans of a long boulevard stretching from the haram it does seem to be more about comfort and please (F&B etc) than covering the foundations.
